I think this would be a step in the right direction. I look forward to the day when we can see a band's entire discography on one page, despite name changes :)

I like this idea. Then let's make it official. Does anyone have any objections on creating such an AR? Which wording should we use? (I'd prefer the "predecessor / successor" combination.) Is there something we should think about? Of course on such an AR only the begin date applies. An end date would imply that the band renamed back to the original name. -- derGraph _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
