Hi! This largely looks good. I absolutely adore the little gif of the tambor! What a great find!

My main note really concerns the sourcing. Some of the sources are books, however the page number wasn't specified. This is something that the article will need and you can just update the in-line citations with this information. I also moved the citations to in-line as well. The sourcing is OK, but you may have to show where the Medieval Life and Times website run by Linda Alchin is routinely seen as a reliable source by other reliable sources. (This is typically established by showing where it's been cited regularly by academic and scholarly sources.) The issue here is that it's self-published, which makes it hard to establish this. It's honestly generally better to stick to scholarly sources since they're usually published through articles and outlets that have a fairly rigorous editorial oversight in place. For example, this source could be useful. I can't see this source since there's no preview, but it also looks like it could be good. It looks like it probably covers the combo of the pipe and tambor, but may have some history of the tabor itself.

Overall though, I think that this is good. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:04, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
