- Lasso d'amore (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Questionable notability. One-off gag instrument used only by PDQ Bach for a couple pieces and almost no one else. Most hits online are false positives for trombone. Virtually no expansion since 2005 creation except addition of image and sound clip.

- Comment shouldn't
other Schikele inventions such as hardart andlasso d'amore be treated in the same way? Is the nominator happy to add this articles?--Peter cohen (talk) 21:23, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Added Lasso d'amore because it falls under the same thing. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 21:51, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Invalid proposal Lasso d'amore is not marked with a deletion template. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:48, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. (For interested readers, hardart is actually a redirect to the Schikele/PDQ Bach work where it is used, hence my striking above.)--Peter cohen (talk) 21:59, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge P. D. Q. Bach is probably the best target.--Peter cohen (talk) 21:16, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Music-related deletion discussions. -- • Gene93k (talk) 23:28, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Well sourced and illustrated article. Problems with internet searches and article stability are no reasons to delete. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:48, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, but lack of notability is. No one else than PDQ Bach has used it, and the sources all tie directly to him. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 18:06, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:OTHERSTUFF notwithstanding, most Experimental musical instruments have been used by one or very few composers. Its notability is established by coverage in many publications, including Grove and unlikely places like Edgar E. Peters: Chaos and Order in the Capital Markets. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:42, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- keep (or merge as suggested above as a last resort), but certainly do not delete.--Smerus (talk) 15:00, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge P. D. Q. Bach not independently notable.--Salix (talk): 22:21, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
