===Anime Relation=== | ===Anime Relation=== | ||
Anime songs are usually played in an anime, if that wasn't obvious enough. We want of course to know where a song was played. When adding a relation you should set the proper relation, such as opening or ending and the version, which will be mostly "normal" anyway. You should also set the episode range the song is played. | Anime songs are usually played in an anime, if that wasn't obvious enough. We want of course to know where a song was played.

====General Principles==== | |||
Most of the time, songs are credited with a credit type matching actual usage, or the song is not credited at all. It's only insert song credits that seem to somewhat often have a credit type mismatching the actual usage. The fact that credit type = usage for the other song types the vast majority of the time... is what allowed the "enter the credits" rule to effectively yield the same result as the other way around of "enter the usage" | |||
Types of song-anime relations | Therefore, ultimately the more fundamental solution is to enter the usage, and call out the fact that songs are "incorrectly" tagged as insert when they are actually being used as not an insert. This view of "tag the usage" creates less exceptions than "tag the credits", and provides a much simpler policy to follow. This policy was discussed [https://anidb.net/forum/thread/109453 here]. | ||
# Opening: The song was used during the opening sequence. | |||
# Ending: The song was used during the ending sequence. | {{eyecatch|Note|If a song gets played as both opening and ending in different episodes, you should add both relations on their own, with the appropriate episodes listed.}} | ||
====Types of song-anime relations==== | |||
# Opening: The song was used during the opening sequence. For clarity, any song that plays (partially or fully) during the opening credits is deemed to be played during the "opening" sequence; as such, its song-episode relation for that episode is set as opening theme, regardless of how the song is credited in the episode credits. | |||
# Ending: The song was used during the ending sequence. For clarity, any song that plays (partially or fully) during the ending credits is deemed to be played during the "ending" sequence; as such, its song-episode relation for that episode is set as ending theme, regardless of how the song is credited in the episode credits. | |||
# Background music: The song was used as background music and is credited as such. | # Background music: The song was used as background music and is credited as such. | ||
