BUR #54272 has been approved by @evazion.

create implication good_kid_m.a.a.d_city -> kendrick_lamar_(copyright)
create implication to_pimp_a_butterfly -> kendrick_lamar_(copyright)
create implication damn._(kendrick_lamar) -> kendrick_lamar_(copyright)

Albums by Kendrick.

Partially a test BUR as I'm unsure what our current policy on implicating albums to singular people as opposed to bands.

BUR #54278 has been approved by @evazion.

create implication fallen_(evanescence) -> evanescence
rename the_bends_(album) -> the_bends_(radiohead)
create implication the_bends_(radiohead) -> radiohead_(band)
create implication ok_computer -> radiohead_(band)
create implication kid_a_(radiohead) -> radiohead_(band)
create implication pablo_honey -> radiohead_(band)

Radiohead, also one Evanescence album. I still really don't like (album) as a qualifier, especially for rather generic names (I'm sure there's other albums named The Bends out there)

Yeah, that's the problem with artists who go by their actual names, especially a Japanese woman with a common name. :/

For you and everyone else in this thread who gives a crap, would Mitski (musician) work? Same with Kendrick (and other musical artists) -- the real life person, if their stage name is a single word like Mitski's is, could get the (Real Life) qualifier treatment. Or uh I guess Mitski (Mitski) but that's just kinda cringe.

evazion said in forum #416764:

Can we find a better qualifier than *_(copyright)? We've tried to move away from that before.

There's a reason why I never touched music copytags in topic #30312. It's way harder to think of an appropriate alternate qualifier for musicians who sing under their own name. Like, I don't think (musician) is better because we have shit like Prince (Musician). It's not like (vtuber) where I'd argue it's opaque enough to be used in copytags, even if you disagree with that (which also incidentally means (musician) is ruled out as a copytag qualifier option).
