Articles needing attention

 * 20th century classical music: the article is a mess. (Requires a rewrite and the addition of sources.)
 * Update - new Introduction section has been added to replace that awful list. Article still needs work, though.
 * Postmodern music: article merged with Postmodern classical music and still needs a lot of work to Wikify.
 * Quartal and quintal harmony: Confusion of definition and (apparently) irrelevent material; also, musical examples are often off-topic or otherwise unhelpful.
 * Graphic notation: good but requires expansion
 * Extended technique: needs more detail
 * Microtonal music: tagged with cleanup and personal reflection. Also contains a certain amount of apparently irrelevent material which needs to be better integrated (eg Enharmonicity)
 * Elliott Carter's Second String Quartet: Please expand
 * Morton Feldman: needs a great deal of expansion
 * Vinko Globokar: expand
 * Salvatore Sciarrino: expand
 * Pedro Vilarroig: near-autobiography needing massive reworking to meet Wiki's standards of NPOV and NOR.
 * Iannis Xenakis: not enough on his life post-1960 nor on his music generally.
 * Olly Wilson: start class needing expansion.
 * Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen: expand by translating dk:Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen.
 * Hugues Dufourt: expand by translating fr:Hugues Dufourt.

 * Individual composer articles - find and add freely licensed photos for all composers; this may involve sending emails to the composers or their estates.
 * Individual composer articles and/or articles about individual compositions - find and add freely licensed or fair use images of particularly notable or interesting score pages, such as Image:TidesOfManaunaunOpening.jpg, which is in the public domain.
