Pseudo-releases exist as an alternate tracklist (and title/artist credit) to one or more original (official/bootleg/promotion) releases, and should be linked to them using the transliteration/translation relationship type. As such, they shouldn't duplicate all the information already available on the original releases they're linked to.
Usually, only the following fields should be filled in:
- Release name and release artist
- Track names and track artists
- Medium names, when they exist
- Status
- Language
- Script
- Track times, if desired
If no original releases for a pseudo-release currently exist in MusicBrainz (because the editor adding the pseudo-release wasn't able to add a release in the original language, for example), it is acceptable to add any other information that makes it easier to find it and link it to the original release in the future (such as label and catalog number, cover art, or release-level relationships).
