Music of Italy edit

old PR here. Pretty much entirely written by Jeffmatt and I. I think it's pretty good, but could maybe using some polishing. It is very large, but this is a really major topic. I am too close to the text right now to do the kind of editing it needs (and Jeffmatt probably is too), so please point to areas you think are bloated. Tuf-Kat 00:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's listed as an article with "invalid ISBNs" in the references, I guess. The "Instrumentation" subsection of Folk music has quite a few redlinks, something should be done about those. -Fsotrain₀₉ 16:37, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comment. It is possible to blue-stub all of those red links, I suppose, but I am wondering whether it is not a better idea to simply unlink them, since they are just dialect words for the instruments mentioned in the same sentences. I saw the invalid ISBN note. A slip of the finger produces bad numbers, I know. I guess I can check them one at a time. Jeffmatt 06:29, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If they are dialect for the instruments, they could become redirects. That's a nice middle ground, IMO. -Fsotrain₀₉ 14:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and thanks again. I have just linked about six or seven of those items to new music stubs--short but sufficient for the moment. I fudged on two or three others by rephrasing the sentences along the lines of "...bagpipe, called by different dialect names such as...etc...etc...". Anyway, the red links are gone. ISBN numbers....Is there such as thing as an ISBN reverse look-up? You type the number and the name of the book pops up? I bet the Feds have something like that! Call Jack Bauer.

I'll work on a jazz article to clear out that last red link in the infobox. Jeffmatt 06:38, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's done--at least a stub at Italian jazz. Jeffmatt 12:15, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
