An expandable catalogue of 100 starter artists, with progressive member and related-act hints where available, across five approximate difficulty tiers. Wikipedia statistics can be imported using the accompanying data script. The prototype uses its local catalogue if no enriched data is available.
Guess the artist or band using the information below.
Compare the starter rankings with actual Wikipedia statistics. Popularity and genre specificity are separate measures: a famous artist with generic genres can still be a hard opening question.
The hand-picked tiers are placeholders until the enrichment script has run.
Genre difficulty uses inverse frequency of the artist's genre tags within the current artist catalogue. Familiarity uses real Wikipedia metrics only after you run the optional importer; otherwise it uses explicitly labelled editorial estimates. It is not a measured audience-recognition score.
