(just because the latter has a second track with a different composer)

It does seem arbitrary, I can't argue with that

Yeah, but there’s not really a good alternative.

Or at least, not really a good way to consistently apply a rule and have it make sense in every circumstance

hawke_: my understanding for CSG ACs is this: the exemption for "recitals" is based on the idea that filing a release under the performer is /marginally/ more useful than filing it under VA.
2011-03-18 07728, 2011

hawke_: but if there's only one composer, it's not a "mixed recital" and not VA.
hawke_: I also think I have a partial-answer to your official/un-official question.

The "mixed recital" section /is/ official (taken from the CSG main page) even though the rest of the page is unofficial.
2011-03-18 07727, 2011
hawke_
Think so? I think it’s just part of the wiki→doc transition.
2011-03-18 07737, 2011
hawke_
’cos that is the CSG main page, is it not?
2011-03-18 07759, 2011

I think the wiki includes that disclaimer, and then when it’s copied to the doc page it keeps the disclaimer.
2011-03-18 07704, 2011
caller_6
Well, okay, I'm guessing.
2011-03-18 07701, 2011

It still looks stupid though. :-D
2011-03-18 07703, 2011

The problem is compounded. I can't find the "official" CSG page. It's just a redirect to the "unofficial" page.
2011-03-18 07753, 2011
caller_6
Stupid. Agreed. Nonsensical, even.

I think the CSG stopped getting love when everybody shifted attention to CSGv2

I think the way it’s supposed to work is that /wiki/ is the unofficial work in progress editable page, and that /doc/ is periodically copied from there as changes are made when it’s “officially approved” or something.

I think the whole debate is silly and we should just be able to mark ARs as primary or something like that.
2011-03-18 07739, 2011
hawke_
with popular opinion deciding what AR is the most important.
2011-03-18 07756, 2011
caller_6
I agree. A checkbox for "use performer" or "use composer"
2011-03-18 07751, 2011
caller_6
Maybe others. "use compiler" (for Alan Lomax type stuff) maybe?
2011-03-18 07708, 2011

I’d rather it were just a selection box for each Person AR on a track…

You can count on my vote

But it’s post-NGS (at best) stuff that would require a lot of programming work.
2011-03-18 07710, 2011

And it would probably get a lot of objections from various places.

Man, why don’t musicians have cool nicknames like they used to? “The Red-Headed Music Maker”, “The King of the Ivories”
