Genius Translation Cleanup
IntroductionThis is the project page for the Genius Translations Cleanup. This page will cover some aspects of the cleanup in detail so people wanting to help out know what exactly we are doing.Guidelines- The Artist Name should be Genius Translations unless there is a specific page created for the language.
- The song title naming should follow this format: Primary Artists - Song Title ("Language Translation" written in Translated Language), if there are featured artists this will be added after the song title via ft. xxx.
- The following metadata needs to be blank: Featuring, Produced By, Written By, Additional Roles, Tags (waiting on clarification for this).
- It is fine to add Song Artwork, YouTube/SoundCloud links, and Release Date.
- The following format should be used for translated albums: Primary Artist - Album Title ("Language Translation" In Translated Language).
- Marking songs as real (Marking songs as real should only be added by those who can personally validate the language).
- Linking Translations to Original Page. We currently use the Q+A section to link to the original page. See example here. Pin these and make sure they are at the top on song pages.
- If you come across any old style translations where annotations are used for translating, please tag them with "Old Style Translation" so we can see how many there are and hopefully come up with a solution to update these.To Do List- Get all translations onto correct artist pages. ✅
