Annual version match under review
The selected recording has release evidence, but its version has not been matched to the retained annual entry. It is omitted from Beyond the yearly lists until this match is resolved.
A retained annual same-title candidate exists, but its original metadata does not identify the selected single/album/live presentation closely enough for an exact recording merge. Keep the supported selection and show the provisional annual candidates.
