Please I am kinda new to archiving and I am trying to help a writer to upload his audio content on archive.org.

Here are my specific questions:

  1. What is the best approach if I want to upload files that may often be updated or replaced in the future. 1.1 Do you advise to create a page (while uploading files). And later on, upload new the audio files there? 1.2 Or do you advise on uploading each file separately in its own page/item? And why?
  2. Is there a way to delete all XML and spectogram png and generated torrent file from an item/page, leaving only the audio files? Because there exists with each upload a file ending with meta.xml exposing the uploader's personal email.

Thank you.
