In order to somehow structure our efforts on fixing and completing MusicBrainz data, the community sometimes forms projects around specialized areas. This helps people to coordinate their editing efforts and to find like-minded editors with knowledge in similar areas.
Feel free to contact, or join these groups, or found a new one!
Ongoing projects
- Cleanup Of The Month
- Every month a new artist is chosen from a list of nominations to be the subject of Collaboration of the Month. The aim is to work as a team to provide the most complete discography possible for a major artist in one month.
- Amazon Japanese Catalog Number Cleanup
- Trying to fix Japanese releases that have different catalog number than on Amazon
- BBC Review Cleanup
- Trying to map unlinked BBC reviews to MusicBrainz.
- Artist Pages That Need Regular Cleaning Up
- This page lists artist pages that need regular cleaning up (e.g. Artists like Intro, Mozart, etc. that get attributed with tracks that belong to another artist).
- Tracks With Multiple Artists
- This page includes a list of releases that have tracks that consist of more than one song by more than one artist. Most of them can now be cleaned up in the actual database, please help!
- Releases With Pregap Tracks
- This page tries to list all releases that have pregap tracks, which we currently can't store as part of CDs.
- BBC Teams Editing MusicBrainz
- Describes how the BBC /music teams and MusicBrainz community plan to work together.
See also Additional Metadata.
- Editing Tools
- Tools to speed up the process of importing a release into Musicbrainz when the data exists externally.
Status unknown
- MusicalTermsTranslations
- This page provides translations of musical terms commonly found in track titles and release titles.
- Jazz Project / Soul Project
- The Jazz project contains a number of resources for jazz oriented editors (compositions list in their canonical form, list of collections to tidy, information about labels, a "jazzy wiktionary", a quote board and more). The Soul project is still in its infancy, and for now just has a compositions list.
- The Jazz "project" is mainly dmppandas pet pages. With the exception of Jazz/Compositions, none of these pages were used by anyone else as far as I can tell, and both Jazz/Labels and Jazz/Collections should be migrated to the new Label feature in the database. Similarly, the Soul project doesn't hold any content but Soul/Compositions. Both these "compositions" pages are very valuable. Maybe the compositions projects could be reorganized/regrouped to something like CompositionsProject?
Past projects
- Frogs Tidying Marathon
- This page tracks the cleaning effort for French artists.
- Mailing Lists Compared To Forums
- This page is a summary of what users thought we'd miss if switching from mailing lists to forums.
