Note about the "quality" levels: for all levels, it's implied that you must check the artist name spelling and sortname, that the artist type is set, and that the artist doesn't have a mispelled "ghost" in the database |

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
- D = Discogs, W = Wikipedia, M = Myspace, O = Official website, F = Fan site, I = IMDB, MM = MusicMoz
- D & W have been searched up (including) letter A of the TODO list
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.
