Like many of Koch's archival projects, the Recording History is an ongoing, incomplete effort. It chronicles Weezer members' musical projects through the ''[[Make Believe]]'' recording process. As of October [[2023]], Koch [[Weezerpedia Discord Q&A with Karl Koch|is considering plans]] to expand the archive alongside Weezerpedia editors{{citation needed}}.

===Editorial notes===
Koch provides the following editorial notes on [[Recording History - Page 1|Page 1]] of the archive:
{{Karl Koch quote 2|
1) When a song is in guillemots (i.e.: «Song Title» as opposed to "Song Title") that means that there is no definite title for that song, it was/is only known (to this author) by this assumed title.
2) Tables were used to help organize many lists of songs, and recording sessions.However, they are not used everywhere. When there is no table, there are often "bullets" to guide your eyes to song titles. Example:
*"Song Title"
3) Not everything in the History is really a song. I decided to leave most of the "extras" in, as it seemed weird to pretend they didn't exist. Nonsense recordings, experiments, and untitled jam sessions are listed as best as could be managed without confusing everyone even more. The line was drawn at stuff that was so raw as to be simply (for example) a drum track with nothing added, or personal non-music recordings.}}
