I know there's an option for a top playlist in the settings menu under Playlists>Automatic Playlist Creation. Here you can choose how many you want with a slider (between 0 and 100 with an increment of 25).
There is also a plug-in that can edit tags. I haven't used it very extensively, but it's good for when you're in a pinch. For tagging whole albums I still recommend using a computer with Mp3Tag or something. Links:

This does not sound right. A known issue among the developers is that write access using the Storage Access Framework (SAF) is not implemented in Vanilla Music. But the known behavior is that just the deletion fails, leaving the database entry untouched and the song playable.
SAF is a fancy pantsy interface for app storage access that, from the users perspective, mostly stands out by theoretically allowing for custom directory access rules for any given app. At least that's what i know, could have more benefits.
SAF was first introduced in Android KitKat (4.4) and since then, devices started shipping that only allowed SDCard Write Access through SAF or by System Applications. Since Vanilla Music has not implemented SAF support and since there seem to be additional hurdles (at least for the tag editor) your ability to delete songs or change tag info of files on any external storage from within Vanilla Music depends on your luck, i've read that some vendors might allow SDCard write access to Vanilla even though and some don't.
Thanks for the link.
I look forward to seeing what happens with the mediadb.

I'm in the middle of a big re-tagging effort with Musicbrainz Picard and it's Musicbrainz Picard that is wanting the change the apostrophe. I've been putting in the little extra effort to delete the apostrophes and type them in to make sure it is the correct character, so, theoretically, I won't be seeing this anymore by the time the new DB is ready for public consumption.
Hey /u/Piscivm, thanks for your suggestion, and sorry for the late reply, I've been quite busy.
I agree that the link to this subreddit could be more descriptive.
I just changed it to "Community & support: /r/VanillaMusic". (ebcc88f)
