Issue	Title	Description	Raised by	Champion	Status
WI-01	Remixes	Need to determine if remixes should be different works, and if so under what circumstances they should be.	pbryan		open

WI-03	Classical work granularity	What are the largest and smallest acceptable granularity work types that should exist for classical works?	pbryan		open
WI-04	Side-long epics and singles	Progressive rock bands have chopped out sections from their side-long epics and released those as singles, sometimes with different titles. How should these be represented as works and related to others?	Torc		open
WI-05	Edited recordings	How much editing would be required to have a separate work entry? Most single edits are only a few seconds shorter than their album versions, but there's also cases like Yes singles, or the single edit of Thick as a Brick.	Torc		open
WI-06	Jazz covers	Is a new cover a different work? If not, is there a point (which may be difficult to define) where the answer would be yes?	DavidtoF		open
WI-07	Classical arrangements	Define when an arrangement (etc.) is a new work	symphonick		open
WI-08	Works published together	Allow super-works for works that were published together but aren't multi-part works; "8 songs, Op. 88". (titles of the sub-parts wouldn't include the "collection", could be "Firsttitle, Op. 88 No. 1")	symphonick		open
WI-09	Medleys	When does a medley become a new work?	Nikki		open
WI-10	Link phrases	What should the link phrases for other version be? (they're not very good right now). Should we rename it to derivative work?	Nikki		open
