User blog comment:Percinnamon/Standard Format For Instrument Pages/@comment-27002267-20190508120009/@comment-32986418-20190508130343

Yes, this is a fairly standard format for most articles on the wiki, but I feel that instrument pages could use some extra features. For example, in some of the percussion articles I wrote, I did:

[Introduction + Infobox]

[Performance - How the instrument is played]

[Scoring - What types of music/ensembles the instrument is in]

[As portrayed]

[Gallery]

[Navigation]

I personally find that this format is more suitable for the instruments, as it gives clear sections for where specific information related to the instrument should be written. On any given page, say, Piccolo, it jumps back and forth between information that could be categorized easily into the Performance and Scoring sections of the article. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to where information should be put without it. This also eliminates the need for a trivia section in most cases, which I appreciate since I feel like a lot of the trivia for instrument pages includes bias and/or unfactual information.

Thank you for your response, and I hope to hear back soon!
