        the point is that they didn't have to translate any of the speech or music, just switch the text language for the different translations of the game

        should you create a new arrangement work if the lyrics are slightly different from the "traditional" work?
      • 2016-02-01 03245, 2016

      • johtso
        and would you add writer=[traditional] to the arrangement work as well as the original work?
      • 2016-02-01 03217, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        johtso, IMO no. Part of (a lot of) "trad" is that it encourages new arrangements and adaptions.
      • 2016-02-01 03204, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        er, I should have said "IMO *generally* no".
      • 2016-02-01 03235, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        (so every performer would be creating a new work, which doesn't sound like what works are for)

        CallerNo6: I've seen other people say that you should create a new work if that version has multiple recordings
      • 2016-02-01 03247, 2016

      • johtso
        so that you can put the arranger credits on a single work entity rather than repeating them on recordings
      • 2016-02-01 03240, 2016

      • reosarevok
        That is what we do for classical arrangements, not sure if it's appropriate for trad since I don't edit trad. Freso? ^

      • reosarevok
        (well, I generally happily add them as long as they're published and I can find a score for purchase which ensure there *could* be further recordings, but that's kinda twisting the guideline a bit :p)

      • 2016-02-01 03223, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        johtso, yeah, there's /some/ point where a new arrangement probably becomes significant enough to become a work.
      • 2016-02-01 03238, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        My vote is to set the bar fairly high.

        As a trad editor, it's my experience that there usually aren't multiple recordings of an arrangement. At least in Irish music, and I suspect for a lot of trad, arrangements tend to be ad hoc.

      • 2016-02-01 03240, 2016

      • CallerNo6
        Maybe I should rethink my position. If a trad song is split into 20+ works, does it matter? Maybe that's more a question of presentation.

        reosarevok, but then you have to select the right arrangement from a list of possibly dozens? Or do we have a catchall for each work (and hope that people choose the right one)?

        I’d think it’s all the same. There is quite a bit of inconsistency in those strings.
