[edit] Criteria

PLEASE NOTE: The list of clarinetists is not intended to be comprehensive; otherwise this box would be far too lengthy. I recommend two criteria: Clarinetists who actually have a WP article (no redlinks!) and who are truly among the most notable. Obviously the first of these is easily verified while the second is a judgement call. Use your best judgement, and use discussion before adding or deleting if there are any doubts.

For the list of makers, at this writing there are few enough with WP articles that we can include all of them. -- Rsholmes 12:00, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Order of sizes

Very nice template. One suggestion: the clarinets should probably be listed from high to low, not in alphabetical order. I wouldn't think of ordering saxophones, for example, in alphabetical order; high to low is the most logical way to go. Badagnani 19:38, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I dithered over that. I decided on alphabetical but I'm not dogmatic about it -- I'll change it to size order one of these days, unless there are contrary opinions voiced first. Thanks for the input. -- Rsholmes 19:53, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

By size makes sense to me, as there's no real need for alphabetical in a case like this. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ 20:59, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Emma Johnson

I've put the entry for Emma Johnson (musician) into proper alphabetical place, formatted it correctly, and disambiguated. However, the other clarinetists in the template are there either because they are among the most famous, or they are among the most historically significant. My feeling is that Johnson has neither sufficient fame nor sufficient significance, so far at least, to justify including her in the template, and I'm considering deletion. Any comments? -- Rsholmes 02:29, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
