        (have cover art, are considered when looking at a discography, etc)

        reosarevok: the playlists in my post to the mailinglist all have something like "coverart"
      • 2014-07-12 19358, 2014

      • reosarevok
        The first has an article picture, which I suspect articles without videos have as well. The Spotify one also doesn't have any cover

        It's also not a playlist, it's a DJ-mix
      • 2014-07-12 19358, 2014

      • reosarevok
        (or a broadcast, or whatever - it's an uniform thing, anyway)
      • 2014-07-12 19325, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Seems to be a radio show, listening to it - or it's digital equivalent
      • 2014-07-12 19331, 2014

      • reosarevok
        We even have guidelines for those already
      • 2014-07-12 19340, 2014

      • reosarevok
        er. Its. Sorry D:
      • 2014-07-12 19322, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Anyway
      • 2014-07-12 19320, 2014

      • reosarevok
        That still could go in as a release or a recording or whatever
      • 2014-07-12 19314, 2014

      • reosarevok
        http://quasi.rockit.it/2014/05/20/pesaro-wave-cit… is a series if anything - although I don't think we're using series for lists like those at the moment so style approval would probably be needed to use them as arbitrary lists rather than real series
      • 2014-07-12 19339, 2014

      • reosarevok
        (the videos themselves of course can be added as standalone video recordings)
      • 2014-07-12 19358, 2014

      • gioele
        being the rational person I am, I am looking for a way to tell releases and playlists apart, I hope "it has a cover art" is not the litmus test to apply :)
      • 2014-07-12 19358, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Intentionality, probably
      • 2014-07-12 19340, 2014

      • reosarevok
        I don't know if there's a single clear border, I doubt it since there rarely is in MB stuff :p
      • 2014-07-12 19347, 2014

      • gioele
        :)
      • 2014-07-12 19302, 2014

      • gioele
        can we have series of series?
      • 2014-07-12 19336, 2014

      • gioele
        I think all these http://quasi.rockit.it/category/liste/ as a single series (the authors' intent is shown by the fact that they have a section for them). But if a playlist is a series, then we have a series of series
      • 2014-07-12 19310, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Well not at the moment. That's a trivial change though
      • 2014-07-12 19314, 2014

      • reosarevok
        I don't think I would agree either that that's a series, though - they're unconnected as such, just happen to be all the lists in the same page. That's a bit like saying all releases on a netlabel are a series.
      • 2014-07-12 19324, 2014

      • reosarevok
        (I would agree though you can have series of playlists)
      • 2014-07-12 19306, 2014

      • gioele
        reosarevok: yes, you are right, that is more a catalog than a series
      • 2014-07-12 19309, 2014

      • reosarevok
        (If they did that Pesaro thing for different cities, I'd call that a series - or if they have a weekly "we ask an artist to pick 10 songs for us")
      • 2014-07-12 19320, 2014

      • reosarevok
        About the limits, yeah, unsure
      • 2014-07-12 19322, 2014

      • reosarevok
        If a magazine asks an artist to select 10 songs that influenced them and print the names, that's obviously not a release. If they ask him and put them on a CD, that is a release. If they link to them in youtube... it is indeed a bit of a grey area :)
      • 2014-07-12 19301, 2014

      • gioele
        I think the difference between artist chooses 10 songs in an article and artist chooses 10 songs for a CD is that the first links to works, the second links to recordings, the third…
      • 2014-07-12 19351, 2014

      • gioele
        so MB does not care about "list of titles linked to works" but cares about "list of titles linked to recordings"
      • 2014-07-12 19309, 2014

      • gioele
        at list this is a decent test
      • 2014-07-12 19353, 2014

      • gioele
        s/list/least/
      • 2014-07-12 19301, 2014

      • gioele
        now, are lists of embedded videos links to works or recordings? I'd say the latter: these people spend time choosing a good video, or a version of song X made by artist Y
      • 2014-07-12 19315, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Heh
      • 2014-07-12 19302, 2014

      • reosarevok
        I don' tthink that's what MB cares about - it cares about the, well, release-ness of it :p
      • 2014-07-12 19346, 2014

      • reosarevok
        And about notability as well, up to a point - that CD would be allowed if it's done by an artist, but it'd probably be voted down if it's my wedding's playlist on a CD :p
      • 2014-07-12 19300, 2014

      • reosarevok is very much not getting married, but to put an example
      • 2014-07-12 19348, 2014

      • gioele
        well, I think the people behind these sites spend quite a bit of time to polish those posts, then the push them on social networks and all those things. Notable I do not know (quite a bit for rockit.it), but release-ness I'd say a lot (at least they try to look as people that do releases)

        is a radio dj notable? they're cranking out playlists faster than we could ever enter them.
      • 2014-07-12 19318, 2014

      • CallerNo6
        (maybe I simply don't get the playlist concept)
      • 2014-07-12 19350, 2014

      • gioele
        CallerNo6: some are, others are not :)
