[edit] Mordent
Page 32 has a link to Mordent but that links goes to a linguistics stub. Mordents are discussed in Ornaments (music). I would edit it myself but the page is too large for me to edit. Jaberwocky6669 June 28, 2005 19:54 (UTC)
[edit] Improvement drive
Two related topics, Percussion instrument and Rhythm and blues have been nominated to be improved on WP:IDRIVE. Come and support the nomination there or comment on it.--Fenice 07:30, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Glossary terms?
A few of these entries are just musical terms, non-encyclopedic but suitable for a glossary. And we have such a glossary: Musical terminology. Can anyone see a problem with, for example, making affettuoso a redirect to Musical terminology#A? (search good, redirect better...) David Brooks 17:22, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Minstrel
I figure this is as good a place as any to ask: Minstrel could use expert attention. See my remarks at Talk:Minstrel. - Jmabel | Talk 01:52, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bad entry
I was going to remove the Brethren of Purity link from your B index, since I have never ever seen a reference to them in a musical context in all my research, but then I saw the warning on top to not remove anything, so... I guess I'll leave it to you guys. --maru (talk) contribs 06:52, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
- I believe the reason it's on this list is because it was in a music encyclopedia. There must be a reason it's in there -- perhaps there's a completely different meaning by the same name. Could be the name of a symphony, a name or translation of a name of a completely different group somewhere else in the world, a name or translation of a name of an important song, or something else entirely.

[edit] This seems to be...
a classical musical enyclopedia? (or very old). What about the Guiness Enyclopedia of Popular Music (or the Microsoft CDROM based on part of it, the excellent but now deleted Music Central)? --kingboyk 13:09, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Project directory
Hello. The WikiProject Council has recently updated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you. B2T2 14:01, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
