Short description of artist? Hi again,

Thanks for all previous help on artist-photos.

Next question of the same type; does a short description of the artist/group exist in MB. Just trying to save myself from making a clever regexp for Wikipedia lookups. (This is just for demo purposes)

Regards,
Matti emack, Internetljud

RE: [mb-users] Short description of artist?

You can get the introduction from wikipedia (up to the contents index) from the BBC website.
Just stick wikipedia.xml, wikipedia.json or wikipedia.yaml on to the end of the URL:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/54266e9c-7098-48ea-bb70-e25fdfa14227/wikipedia.xml

This gets live updates from Wikipedia and hourly updates from MusicBrainz.
