I’ve been compiling some data.
The idea
I thought that it may be tedious to find one’s way across all the TV performances, especially those from the '70s. They may contain live, covers, alternative versions, one-time performances etc.)
There are also song pieces hidden in various video documents (thinking in example of For The Good Times or of that very short piece of a Peter Pan song).
It may also be tedious to find the precise context for some performances/songs (accurate show title, episode…) I never stumbled upon a detailed list for this*… though I guess a lot of information must be spread across wiki pages…
(* Well, now I have, but there were things I listed that they missed, and reciprocally, and we don’t target the same details.)

List description
So, I made this list targeting primarily the TV performances and video documents containing "official" (officially broadcasted) Michael Jackson’s songs/music. The list somewhat extends to more than this but its actual scope is unclear at this time… and I think "better have too many information than not enough, while it’s accurate and somewhat structured".
But I don’t think that this list should be expect to someday seem perfectly exhaustive and accurate, and I see it as something that can evolve, get re-verified and refine over time (when I find time).
Also keep in mind one of its goals is to help find documents (YouTube videos, official DVDs), not to be an exhaustive summary of MJ’s career.
While compiling this, I also thought that having a chronological view helps seeing what happens before or after other things.
Help and feedback would be appreciated
If you have suggestions in order to complete/correct the list, or answers to the enigmas from the "More information required" tab, please contact me (using this thread or messages, as you feel like) (do not leave comments in the document).
Also, initially I wanted to mark performances as Live/Partial live/Playback… but that was too much to assess at the same time as compiling, so that column is very incomplete.
Technical aspects
I wanted a datasheet host where the document could be accessed in read-only mode (at least for now) and that would not require personal data (like Google accounts or phone).
I’m currently testing this host which only requires a login and a password to find one’s documents.
Currently known technical limitations:

Currently known technical limitations:
- I was told that it does not work on mobile. -> On mobile, you should have the option to load a page in "Desktop" mode.
- In-document comments don’t seem to work. And anyway, I don’t recommend using them for now (explained in the document’s "Description" tab I think).
