[edit] A (musical note)

Delete this before somebody creates B (musical note), C sharp (musical note) and so on. —Wahoofive (talk) 23:48, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment: I can't find an article on scales that actually identifies the notes. If there is one, this should be redirected there. Gazpacho 00:51, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, like Tenor C. Kappa 02:55, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • keep please as we keep the tenor article too. Yuckfoo 03:52, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • I can find a bunch of articles with scales in them, Gazpacho, but A as a note has a place in quite a few of them. A redirect to any one of those scales doesn't make much sense. (You're right that most of the pictures do not identify the notes, though.) I vote keep for now, and if we do get too many single-note articles, we can consider merging them then, but that's nother vote-around. --Jacquelyn Marie 13:00, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • keep as well as don't worry about precedent. --Badlydrawnjeff 13:25, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • keep proliferation of musical note articles is not an ad infinitum problem, and the harmonics of each note are individually interesting and encyclopedic as a music and a science topic. Xoloz 15:09, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, its worthy of an article and its only good if an article is created about every musical note - because it could become a series of music articles, like there is a series of food articles. — Wackymacs 17:05, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Each food is different, but notes aren't, except in relation to one another. This is like having a separate article on each face of a die: 1 (die face), 2 (die face), etc. —Wahoofive (talk) 04:05, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge into Scale (music). There's potential here, though, so I'd lean towards keep barring a merge. PacknCanes 23:10, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
