In [[MusicBrainz Terminology|MusicBrainz Terminology]], a series is a sequence of separate [[Release]]s or [[Track]]s with a common theme, artist, label or genre; usually prominent in the naming of branding of releases or tracks in the series. For release series, individual releases are often denoted with a volume or series number, but this is not necessary for them to be considered a series. A series can vary between two and hundreds of releases. |

The following is a list of existing pages which need migrating ([http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Series%2F&namespace=0 or see a full list of pages under Series/]): |

==Examples== |
|||
* [[Release:56a5c8b8-5363-44b9-93a4-d6688e40a8a6|FabricLive 35: Marcus Intalex]] is the 35th release in the ''FabricLive'' compilation series. |

* [[Release:6aa38a7b-2c4d-4f81-9e45-8bb2577e7e25|Promo Only: Modern Rock Radio, October 2006]] is the October 2006 release in the ''Promo Only: Modern Rock Radio'' series. |
|||
* [[Release:7a02c993-0511-4592-94b2-e73a09cbe573|Casino Royale, Volume 1: For the Hustlers]] is the first release in a 2-part concept DJ mix series by ''DJ Rectangle''. |

==Style== |
|||
* The community has agreed upon ''weak'' [[Series Style Guideline]]s for a select number of release and track series. Other series have have de facto standards in place through community edit agreement. |
|||
* [[Series Number Style]] discusses [[Volume Number Style]] and [[Part Number Style]] which can apply to some release and track series. |

* [[Subtitle Style]] is often used to separate the series' title and a specific release's title. |
