User talk:Mardala

First off, this is my article I contributed. It is information I got from "my own" website. I am glad there is some scrutiny about copyright, but I don't see anywhere where I violated any copyrights.

Second, the Mardala is NOT a Pakhawaj. A Pakhawaj is a drum used in Hindustani music for Hindustani classical music. It is larger (the Pakhawaj), the tuning pegs are on the other side and there is not a fixed "Kirana" (which is a Mardala term and not a Hindustani term) for the bass side. The style of playing and "bols" are not even the same. Although there are similarities in shape, if you actually saw one in person you would notice the difference. You are not an expert in Indian musical instruments so why should you decide whether the information is false? Not sure. Essentially lumping this into the same category as the Pakhawaj is naive. The Pakhawaj article also lumps the Mrindangam in there as well, which is also a "totally" different instrument played in southern India.
