History:Advanced Entity

New Entities Proposal

Status: This page is a collective proposal for new entities that have not yet been implemented, their behaviour and how to present them.

Idea

At the moment we have the following entities:

• Artist
  • related concepts: Group, Band, Orchestra, Person, LegalName, PerformanceName, RoleName, FictionalPerson/Character

• Album
• Track
• URL

I propose adding the following entities with the described behaviour:

• Label
  • field: LabelCode
  • AR to URL possible (label website)
  • AR to Artist ("is/was signed to from ... to ...")
  • AR to Series
  • AR to Label ("is sub-division of", "is distributor of"?)
  • album listing with all albums which have the id of this label in a release
  • "View Mods" for related edits

• Series
  • examples: Café del Mar, Ministry of Sound, Kontor, Hed Kandi, ...
  • AR to URL possible (series website)
  • lists all albums belonging to this series. Linkage through AR or through album attribute?
  • "View Mods" for related edits

Description

(More detailed description missing...)

Note that both distributors and labels are described with the entity Label.

Label entities could then be used in extended release infos of albums. Both labels and series help to keep an overview of the related releases and the related mods.

Discussion

Me love! Especially I love the series proposal if it would mean that we would dump the volume number style guideline (which is used for keeping releases in a series together even if their names don't teally imply it). //bnw
