How do artist collaborations work on here? I'm interested in Queen and if you look at the main listing for them (http://www.45worlds.com/cdsingle/artist/queen/all) you see the Queen stuff but also a lot of the collaborations such as Queen + Paul Rodgers, Queen and David Bowie etc which is what I'd expect and want as a Queen fan looking at it.
However it seems not all of them are here, and a couple of new collaborations I've added are not shown here, so I guess it's a manual job for someone or I've missed doing it somewhere?
So Queen + The Muppets (yes really!) should be linked and all the Queen Dance Traxx here should show up when looking at Queen.
Then these two should be linked to Brian May this and this
Sorry if I've missed something when adding these.
Then finally if an artist has just appeared on someone else's record/CD but isn't shown as the artist what is the standard for doing that? For example this is clearly just a Kerry Ellis record, but Roger Taylor played some drums and Brian May produced it. It would be useful when looking at either of those artists to have a "show collaborations" link that showed all examples like this.
I've added a few pseudonyms to Queen and Brian May including most of the ones you suggested.
I'm not convinced that the Queen Dance Traxx have anything to do with Queen, apart from being covers and perhaps including samples.
I found this succinct comment/review: Treat your worst enemy on this CD! He or she will definitly hate you more than before!.
You can drop in corrections on items if the artists need including with another.
We don't have the scope to include guest performances where the name does not appear in the Artist credit.

Agree that Queen Dance Traxx has nothing to do with Queen as it seems to be some form of covers album (of the worse kind).
Has anyone more info on the Muppets entry - is it actually Queen providing the music element that they are "signing" to or just a cash in using the name?
On the comment of Roger playing drums etc. try using the tags option. I have added a tag to give an example.
Certainly no arguments from me that the Dance Traxx are awful, I've always considered them an official release of covers, but can't see anything real for that.
The Muppets is definitely Queen backing, lots of quotes from Brian May such as here
and he was pushing it heavily on his website at the time!
