Talk:Spanish bagpipes

Poor editing
Why, when this section was formerly titled "Iberic gaitas," were the Portuguese pipes included here, in a new article speaking about Spanish pipes? In fact, the Iberic section of the bagpipe article spoke about many regional pipes throughout Iberia. Please fix. Thanks. Badagnani 07:32, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Duplication
The first paragraph has been lifted in its entirety from Types of bagpipes. It would perhaps be better to move the new paragraph (with sources!!) to that article, and remove this one. Or improve this one with more info :)--Yendor1958 09:42, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

The article is a copy of an old version of the paragraph about Iberic gaitas from bagpipes. The etmology explanation was deleted since users considered it a too long explanation of a specific topic in a generic article about many bagpipes (imagine if each term refferring to bagpipe in each language would have a paragraph concerning its etmology in that article...). I think it would be better if summed up, and copied to the articles about Transmontan gaita, Galician gaita and Asturian gaita, since the emology analysis is relevant to all of them. And simply delete this article, since there is not much sense to exist a generic article about Spanish bagpipes seeing that there is a generic article about bagpipes and one for each model.

 * OK, here's my suggestion: redirect this page to Gaita and expand that page to talk a little about Iberian bagpipes in general - including this etymological information. I don't like the idea of duplicating it in every article on each type of Spanish bagpipe. Calum 06:11, 3 April 2006 (UTC)


 * agree with comment above. move to Galician gaita    joe 07:27, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
