Proposal at: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/User:Torc/Titles
Currently, near the bottom, there is a short section which states:
===Do not remove EP===
If the word "EP" or "E.P." is part of a release title, it should be retained.
I'd like to update that to something like:
===Do not remove format designations that are part of the title, or add them if they aren't in the title===
If a release includes a designation such as '''EP''' or '''E.P.''', '''7"''', '''CD''', '''LP''', '''single''', etc. as part of its title, the designation should be included in the Release Title. If a format designation is not explicitly part of the title, it should not be added.
I don't really think this is a policy change, just a clarification (which is much needed from what I've seen).
