Society 17557, currently named South Jakarta, includes songs from many different regions of Java. I suggest the following:

  • Rename society 17557 "Javanese", and keep songs 3354, 3352, 3353, 2765, 1, 877, 3981 assigned to it. Make society lat-lon average of song lat lons (-7.21, 109.89). Match to xd751, language java1254. My reasoning for broadening the name of the society rather than splitting into different regions of Java is in order to facilitate match with xd751/Ib2 (Javanese).
  • Rename society 12365 "Sundanese" and reassign songs 1824, 3356, 3355, 3358, 1823, 1562, 3357 to it. No D-PLACE match. Language sund1252. Change song location name to West Java, W C Indonesia for all songs (currently the lat-lon is the same for all songs except 3357 but the name varies). Change song lat-long for 3357 to -7.09, 107.66 to match the others with same location. Make society lat-lon -7.09, 107.66 as well.

Question for @kirbykat and @annalwood - what to do about songs 3979 and 3980?
3979 is from Banten, likely performed by Bantenese people (subgroup of Sundanese).
3980 lists location as "Baduy, West Java," however Baduy seems not to be a location but is actually a subgroup of Bantenese people, who are themselves a subgroup of Sundanese people. Both songs are from the same source and I cannot find tape notes for it, so this is all the info I have.
Options are:

  1. Assign both songs to society 12365. Reasoning: Bantenese and Baduy are both of Sundanese ethnicity.
  2. Create new "Bantenese" society and assign both songs to it. Reasoning: To differentiate Bantenese from West Java Sundanese.
  3. Create two new societies: Bantenese (assign song 3979, language bant1285) and Baduy (assign song 3980, language badu1237). Reasoning: To differentiate Baduy as a distinctive group with their own dialect.

For now, I have implemented the bulleted solutions, and went with option 1 regarding songs 3979 and 3980-- assigned them to society 12365 (Sundanese). Always possible to split them off later if needed.

Here is a list of the songs, copied from the metadata sheet. Let me know if you need this in a separate doc or email. You can also just use the existing metadata spreadsheet and look up these society numbers.

I added the note you suggested for the Banten and Baduy songs, and listed the two songs from Jakarta as Urban Jakarta.
