@Jc86035 : Would an "instance of" set to some kind of meta-class perhaps be appropriate here? I'm not really familiar with the concept of meta-classes, but I'm looking to avoid the conflicts that arise from the occupations set on the item Moebeus (talk) 18:49, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Moebeus: I'm not sure. I think you should ask the project chat.
I don't think this is as useful as it is in MusicBrainz, since we have novalue and unknownvalue options. I don't understand why a "corporate pseudonym" would use this. Jc86035 (talk) 09:35, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jc86035 : In and of itself, this is not a useful item, and it's not supposed to be set directly on a composition. Rather, it's meant to be a superclass for anonymous, DP, traditional and unknown composer where they inherit their occupations from. Moebeus (talk) 10:24, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
