Format of poll choices: Title (Edition)



The title for this database record is currently Gandhi: 25th Anniversary, with the edition listed as "2-Disc". "25th Anniversary" is an edition and not part of the title. The words "2-Disc" are printed as a small black icon in the lower-right corner of the front cover, rather than as a banner like a normal edition tag.

It is obvious that "25th Anniversary" needs to be in the Edition field. The question is whether "2-Disc" should also be included, and if so, how. There probably won't be a consensus on this, but a sampling of people's opinions will give me an idea on how to resubmit this entry.
One man's rip-off is another man's homage.

The current title is certainly wrong. I personally went for option 1 and wouldn't bother to mention the 2-disc bit.

Right, "Gandhi" as title, "25th Anniversary" as edition.

I would say "2 Disc" only needs to be added to the Edition field if there were another similar release, so as to properly differentiate it.
i.e. If they released a "Gandhi 25th Anniversary Edition 1-Disc", or "Gandhi 25th Anniversary Edition 3-Disc", etc.
Since those don't exist, then it doesn't need to be added.
Even if they released a 1-Disc or 3-Disc or "blah-blah" release, this title reached the database first, so can claim the right to not needing the differentiator, while the newer releases would
