A Frogs' Brigade Editing Party
What?
On 2006/09/04, the french MusicBrainz editors decided to take the control back over the french part of the database, by organising a joint tidying effort during the month of September, in order to drastically enhance the quality of all our (beloved :p) french artists.
You can find the original annoucement and details in the mailing list.
During the time of this event, this page helps them maintaining a list of done/ongoing tidying efforts.
It will certainly be moved back to the FrenchArtists page when we'll be done.
Before I forget...
The following non-french-native editors have contributed edits to our crusade:
The following native editors have done work (add your name if I forgot you):
The following persons have contributed cheers:
- "Too bad I'm not french. I could really use some MB juice." ~Kilu
- nightgroove: aww gooo panda!
- nightgroove suddenly wished he wa french
Notes
Transversal editing suggestion:
- oeil for œil
- coeur for cœur
- soeur for sœur
- moeurs for mœurs
- There are a lot of duos/trios/grouped artists names that are either incomplete or simply mangled (search the VA albums)
- tracks titles containings "(avec " or "(en duo avec" are indeed "feats"
Investigate and report:
Abbreviations:
- D = Discogs, W = Wikipedia, M = Myspace, O = Official website, F = Fan site, I = IMDB, MM = MusicMoz

Are not french artists
... though they ended up in this list for some reason we might need to guess before removing them definitely
- Tina Arena ended up in french artists because she sometimes sings in french, which is the definition of this list. To remove her (as Joan Baez and others...), we must decide if this list is about artists who have at least some titles in french, or about artists who sing mostly in french
- a (really quick) look at her releases gives me the feeling she sang very few french songs (but this need to be verified). Now, I'm suggesting the following criteria: "Is to be included in the main list an artist with at least one release with language set to french. Artists with no such release, but with a few french tracks should be included in a secondary list we could possibly maintain below".
- I would draw the limit elsewhere... or add another category. Christopher Young did a release in french, and I am sure there must be other esoteric examples!
- a (really quick) look at her releases gives me the feeling she sang very few french songs (but this need to be verified). Now, I'm suggesting the following criteria: "Is to be included in the main list an artist with at least one release with language set to french.
