User:Ariessa/How to Add an Event

Before adding an event, you should be logged in to your MusicBrainz account. Or, register if you haven't.

Introduction

Did you just attend or heard about any event? You'll probably find that it's not yet in MusicBrainz. Once you're sure the event is not in the database, it's time to add it! For that, select Add Event in the Editing menu in the top bar:

This will take you to the add Event page.

Basic Information

On the add Event page, you should see a form like this:

The first box is for the event's name and is usually pretty straightforward

The second box labelled 'Disambiguation' is important in differentiating this event from one with a similar name. If there is another event with the same name in MusicBrainz, you have to enter a comment in this box. It's best to write a short and useful description of the event. However, if there's no event with the same name, you may leave this blank.
