Tango.info event system - most disturbing

Currently there are three work flows for adding events. It would be nice to have this all working without wiki and without csv upload. Data should go directly to the DB. Logging of historic data would be nice, so one can see how the artists announced to come to an event have been changed by the organizer over time.
- one time event, type festival or marathon (in future allow child events)
- work flow: http://m.tango.info/add/festival -> email to Tobias -> events.csv -> mysql tidb_all.tango_events and tidb_all.tango_events_artists
- ID format: <year start><unlocode|or ti city code><one letter>, e.g.: http://www.tango.info/2011rumowm
- last letter is chosen manually and may relate to festivals name (m = milonguero nights)
- one time event, all other types:
- work flow: http://m.tango.info/add/event -> wiki -> hook on ArticleSave OR script at https://www.tango.info/eventmanager -> mysql tidb_all.tango_events
- GOOD organizers can have the location pre-selected, http://m.tango.info/add/event/?geo=DEBER-CL
- GOOD immediately visible
- data only taken from article title, e.g. http://www.tango.info/wiki/2011-06-13_15h00--22h00_DEBER-RS_Milonga_Openair_-_Tango_Cafe_im_Radialsystem
- BAD the types Milonga/Practica/Lesson have to be typed by hand, select box would be better
- BAD organizers cannot specify time via the form, they cannot modify the page title nor can they mark the event as canceled
- ID format: <year start><xt><wiki article number as http://www.tango.info/wiki/tango.info_base20>, e.g. : http://www.tango.info/2011xtcpcb
- repeated event, all other types, :
- work flow: wiki -> hook on ArticleSave OR script at https://www.tango.info/eventmanager -> mysql tidb_all.tango_events
- GOOD immediately visible
- BAD organizers can only edit via wiki, this is too complicated
- data taken from article title and some html parsing
http://www.tango.info/wiki/Milonga_Every_Tue_21h15_DEBER-CA
- ID format: same as "one time event, all other types", e.g.: http://www.tango.info/2010xtcjkf
