Got some feedback from Ruaok about Verbiage changes to MeB--which I need to review with CallerNo6 and started in on ORG-14
This past weekend I entered my first pieces of data to MB. It’s pretty intricate, although with the guidance of gcilou’s soothing voice from the video tutorial and a billion tabs open--it was a piece of cake! :P

from samj1912 I spent most of the week busy with college end sem assignments. Apart from that did code reviews for picard and PW. That's about it. Now gearing up for theory exams.

I have asked to have this discussion because I think we need to make a strategic decision on how Picard tags Works in order to stay compatible and comparable with other tools and prevent Picard falling behind.
2017-04-24 11450, 2017
Sophist-UK
The issue has been prompted by recently introduced iTunes support for Classical Music and multiple Work tags i.e. what iTunes calls Work and Movement and what I am calling Main Work and Track Work. However this is NOT about providing compatibility with iTunes because the iTunes functionality is only a partial solution at best, and its mapping to tags is so poorly conceived. Rather the iTunes
2017-04-24 11450, 2017
Sophist-UK
functionality has prompted other tools like Jaikoz/SongKong and Muse to try to implement multi-level Work tagging and really this is something that I think should be native in Picard.
2017-04-24 11412, 2017
Sophist-UK
There has been extensive discussion about this in PICARD-1043, but other related tickets are: PICARD-1049, PICARD-1050, PICARD-1068, MBS-9304. There was also prior discussion also in https://community.metabrainz.org/t/how-to-explain…. However before everyone rushes off to read these, I will try to sum up the issue as I see it:
As we all know, the MusicBrainz concept of "work" is quite generic i.e. includes a hierarchy of works and part works as well as stand-alone works.
2017-04-24 11439, 2017
Sophist-UK
Pop tracks generally have only a Track Work.
2017-04-24 11439, 2017
Sophist-UK
Classical music often has Track Works (i.e. a part of a Movement), Movements and a Main Work, though sometimes (e.g. in Operas) Movement might be split into e.g. Acts and Scenes and sometimes there is an Overarching Work (i.e. Wagner's Ring Cycle, or Vivaldi's Four Seasons).
2017-04-24 11439, 2017
Sophist-UK
Musical Theatre often has Track Works and a Main Work.
2017-04-24 11439, 2017
Sophist-UK
There are probably other uses that I am not aware of.
2017-04-24 11412, 2017
Sophist-UK
To complicate things a bit, MB Works can have unlimited levels of "work is part of work" relationships, and whilst we can navigate our way to the top level relationship, there are no semantic attributes to tell us whether it is the Main Work / Overarching Work (if indeed these are clear cut in all cases) nor what the intermediate levels might represent etc.
2017-04-24 11432, 2017
Sophist-UK
Picard has for some years used the Track Work as the entire “Work” which is both somewhat simplistic and also imprecise terminology. iTunes now supports in its UI both the Main Work and Movement but its mapping to tags is poorly thought through. Jaikoz/SongKong does something similar, and wants to extend this. Muso have submitted a work-parts plugin to provide support too. I believe
2017-04-24 11432, 2017
Sophist-UK
that Picard needs to provide better support on this, and if we agree to move forward it will likely mean some MBS development as well as Picard.
