See the guidelines for [[/Remixes_and_mashups|remixes and mashups]].
If a recording is a mash-up of two (or more) recordings the artist should be set to the mash-up artist. Put the two "versus" artist titles into the recording name like so: "Track Title (Artist A vs. Artist B)".

Note that this only applies to the recording, the associated track(s) should be credited as they appear on the release.

== Live recordings ==

For live recordings, enter the song name as the recording title and "live" as the recording comment. If the date and/or location is known, this should also be added to the comment following the same format as used on [[/Live bootlegs|live bootlegs]].
