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.

Notes

Abbreviations:

  • D = Discogs, W = Wikipedia, M = Myspace, O = Official website, F = Fan site, I = IMDB, MM = MusicMoz

Have been searched exhaustively, up to (including) letter A of the TODO list:

  • Discogs & Wikipedia (artist entries)
  • Discogs & Wikipedia.fr (release entries, but Air, Adamo and Jacques Brel)
  • Aliases
  • Discids
  • Collabs ARs have been set
  • Artist dates

Need to be further investigated:

  • Aliases to verify:
    • Les Ondes d'Ombres

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"

Ultimate quality

This is somewhat fictitious... Anyhow, it's the same as good (see below), plus:

  • releases have all sort of ARs goodies :)
  • artist has a short biographic annotation
  • TRM/Pweed are all correct
  • all releases have been searched on discogs
  • you're subscribed to the artist and plan on watching the incoming flow

Good quality

Criteria:

  • All releases (including all VA releases):
    • have spelling verified
    • have good capitalization (with or without the debated "exceptions")
    • have language and status verified and set
    • have a release event
    • have been searched on Amazon
    • have at least a label name in annotation (means the release is not bogus/dubious), and ideally cat number + EAN
    • no bogus discid
  • Artist:
    • artist name and sortname verified
    • no bogus "ghost" for the artist in the db
    • artist aliases have been verified
    • artist birthdate/death date have been researched
    • "collabs artists" has all his collab ARs set
    • discogs and wikipedia pages have been searched/added (favor the fr wikipedia domain)
    • no bogus NAT
  • Radiate:
    • all french artists from VA comp where this artist is present are present in this page
    • all french artists having collaborated with this artist are present in this page

Note: some of the releases may not match the requested quality criteria. Still, the presence of the artist here means some time has been spent *researching* the information, even if the label/cat information is still missing.

D

  • Delphine (D) (checked -- dmppanda 14:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC))
    • Miss artist dates
    • There are several different Delphine, and we need to keep an eye on that to prevent messy misattribution

E

G

  • Gasteropodes Killers (checked -- dmppanda 15:32, 12 October 2006 (UTC))
    • Miss artist dates
    • Obscure. Is it "Gasteropodes" or "Gastéropodes"? Punk stuff...
  • Garage Lopez (checked -- dmppanda 15:32, 12 October 2006 (UTC))
    • Miss artist dates (obscure punk stuff)

Are not french artists

... though they ended up in this list for some reason we might need to guess before removing them definitely
