message: While sort of rewriting this article, I decided to give it a chronological structure, rather than separating history and form as it was before. I'm not sure if this was a wise choice, so comments are welcome, I guess. EldKatt (Talk) 17:54, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Folks, I have again removed 24.242.31.37's reference to the Nintendo 64's song Minuet of the Forest.  This tune was not even a minuet IIRC, was certainly not notable, and does not add any information to the article.  Oscar 01:48, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

: Originally there were only four Minuets, 
:# The Queen's Minuet or Le Minuet de la Reine,
:# Le Minuet de Dauphin,
:# Le Minuet d'Exaudet,
:# Le Minuet de la Cour - (still popular today in certain circles).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vonfraginoff (talk • contribs) 10:47, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

message: User:Feline Hymnic has requested a discussion on this page of changes recently made to the inline citation style established for this article on 6 March 2009 in this edit. The reason given for altering the established citation style is that several non-conforming citations had recently been added, and now outnumbered the parenthetical inline citations already in place. This is contrary to Wikipedia:Citing sources, which states specifically: "If an article already has citations, adopt the method in use or seek consensus on the talk page before changing it." It says nothing about "votes" accumulated by subsequent non-conforming  citations. It appears to me in addition that Feline Hymnic may be confusing inline citations with footnotes. Once again referring to "WP:Citing sources": "Two styles of inline citation are commonly used on Wikipedia: clickable footnotes (<ref> tags, as above) and parenthetical references. The latter would involve adding (Smith 2011, p. 1) in round brackets within the sentence, while the former would include the same citation in a footnote". I submit that there is no justification for changing the established reference style, and my correction should therefore be restored.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 18:01, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

message: Can cite the Grove article "Trio" for the Lully bit.

replies: text: Thanks for the suggestion, but I find no mention at all of the minuet (or of Lully's use of trio texture to alternate with the main section of dances) in the New Grove/2 article "Trio" article by McClymonds, et al. Are you possibly referring to an earlier edition of Grove?—Jerome Kohl (talk) 20:47, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

message: I apologise, I have not yet learnt how to set up redirect and disambiguation. Why is one needed? Many composers did not use the term minuet, in my present short digital library I have minuetto, menuet, menuette, menuetto. If I search wikipedia for these I will be directed to pages on J.S. Bach, &c., but not to the page that tells me about the classical music form known in English as minuet. If I was looking at one of the wiki-pages on Bach, and saw menuette and did not know what that was, I would not at present be able to find out through wikipedia. Redirection and disambiguation would be a good thingBrunswicknic (talk) 11:32, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: To start with, let us be clear that "redirects" and "disambiguations" are more or less opposite categories. A disambiguation page lists two or more different senses for one and the same word. Set is a good example. What you are asking for are redirects, and I am a little puzzled that you mention minuetto, menuet, and menuetto, all three of which currently redirect to this article. "Menuette", on the other hand, is a much less-often encountered variant Fench spelling, and does not currently have a redirect. Perhaps it should. May I ask, in what way are you being redirected to "pages on J.S. Bach, &c."? When I type in any of these terms (except for the rare French variant), I am taken directly to this article. What happens in your case? In general, to learn about reditects and how to create them, see Wikipedia:Redirect.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 23:43, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
