Since the system would not allow me to split artist "Osvaldo Ruggiero" from "Roulotte Tango" I tried to "kill him" by renaming him back to "Roulotte Tango".

I got this:

Internal Server Error

Oops, something went wrong!

Error:

Caught exception in MusicBrainz::Server::Controller::Artist->edit "Can't call method "id" on an undefined value at lib/MusicBrainz/Server/Controller/Artist.pm line 462.
