New Rules!

It's been a while but some new Rules have been posted. First off:

More Equal - 2
- now covers conflicting album titles
[bandtoband.com]

Capital Punishment - 6 & 7
- new Rules around collaborations and their connecting strings such as "and" which are now all to be lowercased
[bandtoband.com]

example: June Tabor and the Oysterband

I'm currently going through all collaborations manually and updating every one to meet the new Rules. I'll get into Collab editing once I'm done.

Interesting! I suppose it'll be good to have a visual distinction for collabs with the lowercase style. "June Tabor and the Oysterband" might not be the best example to use since they also appear as "June Tabor & Oysterband" on another release. (Also you'll want to fix the spelling of "alphabetic" in Cap Pun 6.)

Actually, the way I'm thinking about it, "June Tabor and the Oysterband" is a great example because "June Tabor & Oysterband" clearly shows that Oysterband considers "the" not part of the band name. In that case we do not assume an alias is being used and therefore lowercase "and the."

Thanks for pointing out the misspelling, fixed.
