Help:Catalog schema
This catalog follows a MusicBrainz-style entity model, adapted to a plain wiki (no custom namespaces).
Entities
- Label — one page: Footprints.
- Artist — page title
Artist:<Name>, using Template:Tl. Lists the artist's releases and recordings. - Release — page title
Release:<Title>, using Template:Tl. Holds release date, UPC, catalog number, the full tracklist, and the cover art — fetched from the catalog's image link into the wiki's own file store at build time. Duplicate titles are disambiguated with the artist name (and catalog number when present). - Recording — page title
Recording:<Title> (<Release title>), using Template:Tl. Holds ISRC, ISWC, genre, BPM and publisher data for one track. - Work — page title
Work:<Title>, using Template:Tl. A composition from the SESAC catalog (published by Urban Sufi Music): ISWC, SESAC song number, registration date, full writer/publisher shares. Works link to their recordings by ISWC, and recordings link back.
Categories
- Category:Artists, Category:Releases, Category:Recordings, Category:Works, Category:Labels — membership is by entity type.
- Category:Footprints Catalog — root.
Data source
Pages were seeded Oct 29, 2026 from the Audocs catalog database (Footprints label account): published albums only, with every song attached to those albums. Works were added the same day from the SESAC song catalog (Urban Sufi Music, SESAC LLC export): 653 works, matched to recordings by ISWC. Refreshes re-run the same generator and re-import; manual edits made after seeding should be re-checked against the next refresh.
