==Overview== |
|||
A '''Track annotation''' is user contributed text attached to a specific track entry. |
|||
==Track annotation content== |
|||
[[Image:Idea.png]] A track annotation may hold any information about a track that does not fit into the fields of the database. The following uses are suggested: |
|||
* '''Trivia''': some trivial facts about the track, composition |
|||
* '''Matrix Number''' |
|||
* '''Historical facts''': place of recording, or any other data related to the conditions of recording that doesn't fit into the [[Advanced Relationships|AdvancedRelationships]] system |
|||
* '''Disambiguation and other edition information''': you can use the track annotation to provide more information about the track, like its ''take'' number, if it is previously unreleased, etc... |
|||
* '''Miscellaneous editing warnings or information''': for example if the track presents some specific spelling and/or capitalization difficulty |
|||
* '''Additional comment about the state of the information attached to the track entry''': if work or research needs to be done on that track |
|||
* This list is not exhaustive: you may use a track annotation for pretty much anything you can think of - as long as it matches the purpose of [[Annotation]]s, and relates to the track entry to which it's attached. |
|||
Note that track annotations are specially useful for [[Non-Album Tracks|NonAlbumTracks]]. |
|||
{X} You '''mustn't''' add copyrighted content copied from other resources, be they online or printed. More generally, you really shouldn't copy/paste any kind of content, unless it's purely factual. |
|||
==Track annotation style== |
|||
At that time there is no official (neither recommended) style for track annotations. We may later propose such a style guide if there is really a need for it. |
