 * I finished up sections F-Z following your suggested format (no in-depth editing). I wasn't sure what you wanted to do about the nifty little tables at the bottom of the page--did you want to keep them or just integrate the information into the main list?  In any case, I think the list should include definitions for all voice parts (right now the only one there is mezzo soprano).  Hope this helps... Psp 11:07, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)


 * I wonder if there is a method of organization that would not be too redundant. I think it would be very useful to keep it alphabetized, but similarly have separate tables/sections for terms dealing with tempo, dymanics, voice types, etc. Originally, I planned on condolidating all the terms in the alphabetized glossary, then copying and pasting terms into pertinent categories. And by the way, thanks for doing all of that tedious grunt work. After a spurt of a week of copy-editing and other anal-retentive activities, I guess my brain needed a break. --bleh fu talk fu  20:17, Jan 30, 2005 (UTC)

Redundant tables
Most of the tables should be replaced with links to the relevant pages, such as Tempo, Dynamics, and so on. &mdash;Wahoofive | Talk 17:47, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * I've started to copy some of the table entries into the list so we can eventually get rid of the tables. Psp 15:54, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
