Add a "Report broken entry" icon next to the "Like" icon
The FAQ reads:
Automatic station check
How often is every station checked? It depends on the overall number of stations in the database and if the station is currently marked as broken. Currently a cron job is run every 10 minutes which checks 50 working stations and 10 broken stations. In what order are the stations checked? The stations, that were not checked for the longest time are checked first.
People who discover that their favorite station is broken should also be able to submit that so they get rewarded with only fresh URLs in their playlist. I noticed that there's a "Like" icon placed in the icon column between the home icon and the edit icon. Can you please add a broken icon with title for mouse hover "Report broken station"?
Currently every station is checked about every two days. That seems to be enough, this button could be abused. The stations are checked with a German IP, you might be affected by regional restrictions.
@0ttoman
this button could be abused.
It is already possible to delete stations for anyone so that is a vague argument.
Stations get the label "BROKEN" if you just click on "Edit" and then "Save", you don't have to edit anything. I suggest that a small description can be added about this somewhere.
What about stations for which the stream isn't broken, but the station thumbnail is? Examples here: http://www.radio-browser.info/gui/#/byname/mnm
@pieterdd I think it should be able to report anything that's broken.
