 To-do list for Timpani: |
edit · history · watch · refresh |
|
Here are some tasks you can do:
- Requests: References, references, references. This is only real significant problem with the article.
- Cleanup: List in the extended techniques section should be converted into prose, and images and playable audio could be consolidated.
- Expand: History section—lacks comprehensive information on the uses of timpani in the Middle Ages and earlier periods.
- Other: If possible, record an update of the spoken word version of the article.

[edit] Free content
I have replaced Image:Holst - The Planets - Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity (clip).ogg with a free version at Image:Gustav Holst - the planets, op. 32 - iv. jupiter, the bringer of jollity (excerpt).ogg and marked the former image for deletion as it's no longer needed. The Symphony No. 9 excerpt should be replaced by one based on the free-content files at Symphony No. 9 (Beethoven) and the sound clip from Also sprach Zarathustra is replaceable fair use which is not technically allowed - but I understand how difficult replacement is. I can't find a problem with the other excerpts as they are not in the public domain yet.

- I've removed the replaceable fair use images. I've replaced the Beethoven's ninth symphony excerpt with a free recording of the entire 2nd movement. Graham87 01:43, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Update the to-do list?
Do you think we could update the to-do list with what needs to be done other than reffing, etc.? This would especially help those of us in WikiProject Percussion who want to help with the collaboration of the month but aren't exactly adept at article-writing. -Evan ¤ Seeds 04:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- I did some updating of the list. Tell me what you think. Kakofonous (talk) 04:21, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- What exactly do you mean by consolidating the lists? --Evan ¤ Seeds 20:32, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- I think I clarified it—there were two things I wanted to say, but I didn't combine them very clearly. Kakofonous (talk) 20:58, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
