The result was redirect to Casiotone. I'm redirecting pretty much per Articles for deletion/Casio SK-8 - No point redirecting a few and relisting the rest so I'm just redirecting them all. (non-admin closure) – Davey 2010 Talk 00:09, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep I don't agree with the redirect to Casiotone. Other than the fact they were made by the same company, there is no connection. One is a range of inexpensive home keyboards; the other is a very expensive, professional-standard (in its day) sampler. As for the proposal to delete, I don't agree with it. The FZ-1 (and its variants) was a pretty notable instrument in its day. The first 'affordable' 16-bit sampler and used by a fair few notable musicians, albeit nowhere near as popular as the Akai S900 and S950, its main competition. Although long superseded by more modern machines, and of course by software samplers, the FZ-1 is still used by some musicians today; it has become a desirable retro item. I agree the article needs a lot of improvement but I don't see that it should simply be deleted just because it is currently not up to scratch. Dubmill (talk) 21:14, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
