Every month or so, a new artist will be chosen to be the subject of the 'Cleanup of the Month' community project. The purpose is to focus the effort of the community to clean up an artist's discography. To complete and correct it as much as possible, a project often too large for any one editor to undertake.
Each collaboration will be organised and discussed in its own wiki page and separate forum topic.
