This relationship type belongs to the External Website Relationship Class.

Description

This links an entity to the equivalent entry at Discogs. In addition to providing a link for users to find more information, this will hopefully eventually provide an index between the two systems, allowing MusicBrainz and Discogs to share data.

Attributes

“description”

The description field should be left empty.

Guidelines

Always use the domain www.discogs.com. The subdomains for genres like techno.discogs.com lead to artist pages that only contain the releases of this genre so you don't get the full discography. Likewise, don’t restrict the link by using query parameters (like “&anv=*”) in the URL.

Examples
