Category:External Resource Relationship Class

Description

Advanced relationships used to link to webpages which contain further information on an entity located outside of the musicbrainz.org domain.

Guidelines

• Each record in the MusicBrainz database should be linked to the appropriate webpage on the external website. For example, the URL used to link George Harrison's MusicBrainz artist entry to Wikipedia should be the full URL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Harrison), not the URL of the external website's main page (http://wikipedia.org).
• For sites providing multiple languages accessible from a "language switcher", linking to each version of the site would be redundant. On the other hand, if there are different sites, with possibly different TLDs (e.g. an international site and a "local" site), linking both is allowed.
