Hi, thanks for allowing me to edit. Is there a reason that singles and eps aren't included in an artists' discography? In many instances those are the only place to find certain songs. I see there's a spot to classify something as a single when you edit the album but then it disappears from the discography and none of the singles import from MusicBrainz. Seems to me, if bootlegs are going to be included, having these releases would make the database much more accurate and thorough.

If you scroll through the view icon, (next to album releases on the artist page) you will come to an All Releases List, showing singles EP's .
May be a good idea if Zag could add a seperate list for both.

I saw that but I don't think it's actually showing singles/EPs. Not a single band I checked shows singles. I mean, having The Beatles page not show Hey Jude/Revolution single is a big omission. As an editor, how would I go about adding them if it's just a case of missing info?

Singles are added the same as an album, if the single your after doesn't
show under missing releases, then on musicbrainz search to find the release you want, on the release page click on details, and copy the Permanent link:
Back on audiodb add that link in the box. (You can enter the Musicbrainz Release Group ID here).
It should then appear in the all releases list.
Added, Hey Jude / Revolution
