Talk:Dan Druff (musician)

message: Hello,
I just wanted to respond to the proposed deletion of this page. This is not a hoax: Dan Druff is one of the most respected bass guitar technician in the rock music industry right now. The name is a stage moniker, his real name is listed in the article. He was a member of the band Queens Of The Stone Age for a brief time. Please refer to this link, which is the All Music Guide, a respected database of music and musicians:

Talk:Tube trumpet

message: I trust that those well intentioned individuals
who have deleted/redirected the Hosaphone(tm) page will
now take it about themselves to correct the 
the appalling situation that exists with entries
for "Hamburger", "Big Mac", and "Whopper".
No one has yet suggested removing the entries
for Big Mac and Whopper because one for "Hamburger"
adequately covers the subject.
The Hosaphone(tm) is a specific trademarked
instance of generic trumpet made from hose 
3/8 inch interior diameter plastic hose and
funnel. As such it has a life of its own apart 
similar devices.
In the same way the "Big Mac" is a specific 
trademarked  "Hamburger". 
Substituting "tube trumpet", a coined phrase
unknown until now for the well-known and accepted
"Hosaphone(tm)" is not an improvment.

thread_title:  External Links 

message: I challenged a recent edit to the reception section. 
In April 2010, Shane responded to criticism about presumingly being associated with the emerging church. He stated he felt falsely labeled and that the emerging church  language seemed "utterly unhelpful." He noted however that indeed, "there is a new evangelicalism that loves Jesus and wants to change the world," and that he'd rather focus on celebrating this new movement.
I don't think this belongs in the reception section. I don't want to get "fights" over the emerging church started in this article. However better worded it could go into the biography or a new section. Challenging my removal with "Then take out Shane's thoughts on traditional churches, capitalism, socialism" is the wrong way to approach this. Basileias (talk) 03:15, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Lithophone

message: There's a fascinating article at Ringing rocks, expanded from this in Nov 2011 to this in March 2012 by a single dedicated editor who has also left a detailed exposition on the talk page and has made no other edits! A WP:SPA of the most useful variety, it appears. 
This article on Lithophone perhaps needs to distinguish between rocks played in situ and those shaped and rearranged for playing. 
I might wait until Keswick Museum and Art Gallery reopens after its current major refurbishment closure (and will update the museum article accordingly!) before trying to sort out the various sets of Lake District stones held there. Grove Music Online has a 750-word  article "Lithophone" and says that "Some of the most remarkable lithophones in existence are to be found in the English Lake District.", so there's scope for more content and/or more articles, I'm sure.

"Theoretically the oboe d'amore and the cor anglais might be said to be the alto and tenor oboes respectively (the original tenor of the family was called the taille, a term to be found in Purcell scores), but the oboe d'amore has remained something of a stranger in the orchestra, the cor anglais having supplanted it as the regular alto member of the family."
I think it does make sense to call the cor the alto, since its range corresponds to the alto flute and the alto saxophone.

Talk:Ondioline

message: I rate this article as being of mid-importance, since it's about "a specific notable individual instrument" as required by the criteria at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Musical_Instruments/Assessment#Grading_for_importance.  The criteria say, inter alia, "notable within its particular field or subject".  I'm unsure of the intended scope of the phrase "its particular field or subject" in the criteria, and would appreciate guidance from others more used to rating articles for importance.
If the field in question is "the history of the development of electronic musical instruments", the information in this article is necessary for an adequate account.  However, others might argue that it's not necessary to the topic "musical instruments", which would automatically assign it lower importance.  If you disagree with it's being of mid-class importance, please leave a few words here.
