Talk:Simple metre

Merge proposal
This article does not lend itself to sufficient expansion, and will never be anything more than a stub. It should be merged with Meter (music), into an appropriate section. Any objections or other thoughts? --Jeeves (talk) 13:43, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge. But if we merge this (simple) then ought we not also to merge Compound meter (music)? Further, there is a related question of merger/overlap between the proposed destintaiton of Meter (music) and of Time signature. Feline Hymnic (talk) 23:14, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge Might as well, this article is quite short. Split later as necessary. Not watching this page, so any comments, please leave at my talk page. ~  ωαdεstεr 16  «talkstalk» 06:37, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Please fix this article
This article says that 3/4 has 3 beats, which is correct. However, it also says that each beat is divided into 2 parts. This is not necessarily correct. The number of parts each beat can be divided into can be 1, 2, 3, or 4. Info on each choice: 1 quarter note, 2 eighth notes, 3 eighth note triplets, or 4 sixteenth notes. It's still 3/4 regardless of how it is divided. Georgia guy (talk) 20:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I think I see the source of confusion. The article is actually about 'simple metre', rather than about 3/4, and the characteristic subdivision of the simple-metre beat into two. So I think the article is correct within its context. But I'll see whether the wording might be clarified. Feline Hymnic (talk) 23:12, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
