#REDIRECT [[Editor#Relationship editors]]

RelationshipEditor<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s are [[MusicBrainz]] editors who have the ability to change or remove [[Advanced Relationship Type|AdvancedRelationshipType]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s and [[Advanced Relationship Attribute|AdvancedRelationshipAttribute]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s and to add new ones.

In general, such changes are not made unilaterally by these editors, but are implemented only after consensus has been reached on the [[Style Mailing List|StyleMailingList]] to make the change.

Anyone who feels that a change to the AR types is needed should:
# propose the change on the [[Users Mailing List|UsersMailingList]]
# If you get some positive feedback,
## For an existing type add the proposal to the discussion section of the existing relationship type page.
## For a new type write a full proposal on a page named like this SomethingRelationshipType.

# Propose the change to the [[Style Mailing List|StyleMailingList]] as an RFC (request for comments) -- be sure to include "RFC" in the subject line.
# After incorporating suggestions, if there appears to be consensus, send the final proposal to the [[Style Mailing List|StyleMailingList]] as an RFV (request for veto) -- again be sure to include "RFV" in the subject line.
# If no vetos are received in two weeks, you have consensus, and should arrange for one of the RelationshipEditor<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s (listed below) to implement the change.

Current RelationshipEditor<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s are:
* [[User:Dupuy|AlexanderDupuy]] (dupuy)
* [[User:DaveEvans|DaveEvans]] (djce)
* [[User:DonRedman|DonRedman]] (donredman)
* [[User:LukasLalinsky|LukasLalinsky]] (lukz)
* [[User:mo|mo]] (mo)
* [[User:RobertKaye|RobertKaye]] (rob)
* [[User:WolfSong|WolfSong]] (wolfsong)

==Discussion==

Perhaps the term [[Relationship Type Editor|RelationshipTypeEditor]] (although there are also relationship ''attributes'') might be better than this one? [[User:Dupuy|@alex]]
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Yes you are right, [[Relationship Type Editor|RelationshipTypeEditor]] would be more correct. If you want to fix this, go ahead. I for myself think that RelationshipEditor is ok enough. --[[User:DonRedman|DonRedman]]
</ul>

"Editor" would tend to imply that the RelationshipEditor<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s are the proposers of change, in the way we use the term "Editor" elsewhere. Based on the above description, where the general population proposes changes/additions, and the RelationshipEditor<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s then eventually become the ones to implement such changes, perhaps "[[Relationship Edit Implementor|RelationshipEditImplementor]]" would be more correct? -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 03:58, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Well, as these are a subset (or subclass) of Editors, and by analogy with [[Auto-Editor|AutoEditor]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s (and the more recent [[Transclusion Editor|TransclusionEditor]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s), I now feel the term is fine as it is. [[User:Dupuy|@alex]]
</ul>
