Purpose

This page is a work memo for jazz oriented editors. It contains a list of (in)famous jazz collections, providing exhaustive details that don't belong to releases annotations, status of the collections in MB (complete, partial, totally absent), "state" of the releases (borked, tidied, ...), links to relevant resources (both wiki label pages and external), editing information (naming schemes, ...) and also tasks and todos.

JAZZIZ on Disc

• Completion status: incomplete (10/161)
• Shape of what we have: good

• External ressources: JAZZIZ on Disc official site
• Naming scheme: "JAZZIZ on Disc: MONTH YEAR" or "JAZZIZ on Disc: SUBTITLE, VOLUME#: MONTH YEAR"
