Extra Title Information on recordings
Since NGS went live I have been moving Extra Title Information form Recording titles to the disambiguation comment, but on a recent edit I made ( http://musicbrainz.org/edit/16029660 ) mihhkel asked me why I was doing it and, well... I could not find a guideline for it, so I'm asking about it here. Now in NGS, should Extra Title Information be part of title or part of the disambiguation comment? I think, as the field name says, the title should only have the Works title(s) normalized (separated by slashes when two or more songs are on the same recording, with medley title if it has one, etc) while "extra" info. ("live", "edit", etc) should be put on the disambiguation comment (so usually different performances of the same song have the same recording titles and different disambiguation comments). In either case, I think http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Style/Recording should be updated so it explicelty says to keep ETI on title or move to disambiguation (though a RFC would be needed for this...) Happy New Year :) -- View this message in context: http://musicbrainz-mailing-lists.2986109.n2.nabble.com/Extra-Title-Information-on-recordings-tp7142060p7142060.html Sent from the Style discussions mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
