Usage Advice
Use when
- Use inside a
gmeow:CreativeDerivationto name the kind(s) of derivation — cover, remix, sample, arrangement, transcription, quotation; non-functional so a sampled cover can carry several.
Avoid when
- Avoid encoding the derivation kind as a relator subclass (Principle 9 — it is a value vocabulary) and avoid leaving it unset; the relator requires at least one type.
How to use
- Point the
