Hi,
I'm trying to import new artists from Musicbrainz but the process always gets stuck at "Checking MusicBrainz Exists...❌"

Sometimes this can happen if there is a mismatched MB id. Sometimes they change the ID.

Imported L'Rain
Not sure what Punctuation Mark has been used in the name spelling at musicbrainz, but if you use that it won't find the artist if used to search with.
Just type from keyboard or use the one from this post.

Trying to import "Claire Laffut", nothing unusual about the name, no special characters, fails on the musicbrainz check.

Not the first time I've had this issue.

Can't import "Vendredi sur Mer" either, seems to be a French issue

hi, i'm trying to import artist Lo'Jo from Musicbrainz... it wasn't return in the list of musicbrainz artists.
Is this due to character ' in the artist's name?

Imported Lo'Jo
Not sure what Punctuation Mark has been used in the name spelling at musicbrainz, copied the link from the artist page (top left) and it worked fine. Have had this problem before.

Just fixed this apostrophe search bug, all imported as well and should work in the future.
