* unknown: default when creating
* bronze: artist info filled in, all external artist links set, duplicate artists merged
* silver: has "full" discography on overview page (release groups cleaned up), all artist relationships (performs as, band members) set, IPI set
* gold: all releases/release groups cleaned up (date, label, barcode, ASIN/discogs)
* platinum: all recordings cleaned up (comments for live recordings / recordings with same name, identical ones merged), works cleaned up, every recording is associated with at least one work
* diamond: all external links set (lyrics, allmusic, discogs, ASIN, ...), all relationships set


The proposed criteria are (only for artists that have a discography):
* '''Bronze'''
** Has "full" discography on overview page, which means all release groups are cleaned up (merged, have correct type) and all official studio albums / EPs / singles are present as release groups. Usually this means the overview page obsoletes the Wikipedia discography.
** All musical artist relationships are set (performs as, all band members).
** The artist and all members (for groups) have ''all'' available artist info filled in ([[IPI]](!), begin/end date, country, gender, ...)
** All external links are set (official homepage, lyrics, allmusic, discogs, youtube, twitter, facebook, ...).
** All duplicate artists merged, artist comment set for all artists with the same name.
* '''Silver'''
** All releases are cleaned up, which means medium type, date, label, barcode, ASIN and discogs links are set so they exist, duplicates merged.
** All official releases are present (e.g. there is no non-promo/non-bootleg release in Discogs which is not in MusicBrainz).
* '''Gold'''
** All recordings are cleaned up, which means there are no two recordings with the same name and no disambiguation (ISRC, comment, ...)
** All recordings (besides ones like [silence], etc.) are linked to works.
** All works have the correct type and have an [[ISWC]] set if available.
* '''Platinum'''
** All external links are set (lyrics, allmusic, discogs, ASIN, ...) for all entities (works, releases, release groups, ...).
** All works have (correct) writer/composer/lyricist relationships
** All available (through liner notes, other trustful sources) musical relationships set (mastered by, recorded by, guest vocalists, ...)


If an artist is in ''Platinum'' state nothing more can be added/corrected for the artist, except when MusicBrainz gets new features or new releases appear or new information is available.

The idea is to have a ranking of artists, based on mostly objective criteria. The reason for this is more fun to clean up artists (like: I want to have my favorite band be fully cleaned up, and let others know). These artists are then also a show case what can be achieved with the full level of MusicBrainz interlinked data!

The proposed criteria are (only for artists that have a discography):

  • Bronze
    • Has "full" discography on overview page, which means all release groups are cleaned up (merged, have correct type) and all official studio albums / EPs / singles are present as release groups. Usually this means the overview page obsoletes the Wikipedia discography.
    • All musical artist relationships are set (performs as, all band members).
    • The artist and all members (for groups) have all available artist info filled in (IPI(!), begin/end date, country, gender, ...)
    • All external links are set (official homepage, lyrics, allmusic, discogs, youtube, twitter, facebook, ...).
    • All duplicate artists merged, artist comment set for all artists with the same name.
  • Silver
    • All releases are cleaned up, which means medium type, date, label, barcode, ASIN and discogs links are set so they exist, duplicates merged.
    • All official releases are present (e.g. there is no non-promo/non-bootleg release in Discogs which is not in MusicBrainz).
  • Gold
    • All recordings are cleaned up, which means there are no two recordings with the same name and no disambiguation (ISRC, comment, ...)
    • All recordings (besides ones like [silence], etc.) are linked to works.
    • All works have the correct type and have an ISWC set if available.
  • Platinum
    • All external links are set (lyrics, allmusic, discogs, ASIN, ...) for all entities (works, releases, release groups, ...).
    • All works have (correct) writer/composer/lyricist relationships
    • All available (through liner notes, other trustful sources) musical relationships set (mastered by, recorded by, guest vocalists, ...)

If an artist is in Platinum state nothing more can be added/corrected for the artist, except when MusicBrainz gets new features or new releases appear or new information is available.
