[mb-users] Moulin Rouge and featured artists

Hi all,

I've just been looking at the two Moulin Rouge soundtrack releases:

http://musicbrainz.org/release/9fce131b-381e-4588-844d-d113db2e3d76.html
http://musicbrainz.org/album/4088668e-a85f-4891-823e-f8badecf514c.html

Without going into the mess that seems to have been created by
duplicating the discs (they were released separately, and then as a
package, which seems to have caused some confusion), there seems to be
some strangeness going on with the artist attributions as well.

On the releases themselves, there are no featured artists.  Tracks are
attributed to one or more performers, which gets a bit crazy in some
cases (Spectacular Spectacular on Moulin Rouge 2 has eight
collaborating artists).  When these releases were added, they seem to
have been arbitrarily attributed to whoever occurs first in the list
(Nicole Kidman in most cases) and the rest listed as featured artist.
Is there some guideline for doing this?  In a number of cases it is
clearly incorrect; 'Elephant Love Medley' and 'Come What May' are both
duets and shouldn't be attributed solely to Nicole Kidman (especially
on the latter, as Ewan McGregor is the dominant performer).

How should this be corrected? Should we create appropriate track
artists (this will result in some awful pseudo-artists)?  Or is there
a better solution?

Thanks,
--
