List of zithers

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This list is essentially OR or a miscategorisation. For example, the cymbalom is a form of hammer dulcimer, not a zither as such, unless you choose to take the broadest conceivable definition of zither in which case it would be better to talk about a much more generic term such as "multi-stringed instruments with sound board" - but I don't know of a correct academic term for this. The creator seems to be promoting the moodswinger, so I suspect it's enthusiasm for that which motivated this list's creation. Guy (Help!) 11:15, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete not really per nom, but rather because a category is better than a list which doesn't contain any additional content. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 17:48, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
