I agree with all of this. Given that it's obvious what the nationality and instrument parts of the categories are, it might be nice to lay out what the genre categories are. Rock, classical, jazz, heavy metal, punk rock, pop, and funk are in the works. Anything else? Rhythm and blues? Soul?--Mike Selinker 16:45, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here's an idea: how about starting with musical groups, which only need a double intersection of nationality and genre. That'll be easier to explain. Then, once that's covered, you explain about individual musicians, and introduce the third intersection of instrument. I think it might make the whole thing flow better, and be easier to understand.

Both are good ideas. I'll try and work these in, though maybe not this week (family commitments!) Bencherlite 11:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
