Class MusicBrainz::Model::Alias
In: lib/rbrainz/model/alias.rb
Parent: Object

Represents an artist or label alias.

An alias (the alias name) is a different representation of an artist‘s or label‘s name. This may be a common misspelling or a transliteration (the alias type).

The alias script is interesting mostly for transliterations and indicates which script is used for the alias value. To represent the script, ISO-15924 script codes like ‘Latn’, ‘Cyrl’, or ‘Hebr’ are used.
