Guidelines - 3. TitleUse this field to enter the main title of the release.
1. Enter the title as close to the way it appears on the release as possible, following the general Discogs guidelines for capitalization. Sometimes the title is different on the cover, on the spine etc. It is best to use the title on the cover, but also consider what is going to be most useful to other users, so the most complete title is better if it is on the spine. Use the notes field to mention any important differences. 2. If the release has no title, and there is no track information, use 'Untitled'. If the release is untitled, but there are track titles, use the main track title. For double A-sided releases, use both names separated by a slash. (Please make sure you separate them with a slash and a space on either side of the slash as this helps the search function properly, i.e. ABC Song / XYZ Song). If the release has no title, but there is good evidence of a title being given to it, use that title with an explanation in the notes as to it's source 3. Please do not use any quotation marks in the main release title field, as this additional punctuation is not necessary. Scare quotes are the only exception to this, but are a rare occurrence. 4. Do not transcribe words that serve as an introduction and are not intended to be part of the title: Ziltoid The Omniscient (Title appears on release as: Devin Townsend Presents - Ziltoid The Omniscient ) If the form in which the title appears on the release is considered to be important for identification, please list it in the release notes. |
