Research two instruments not already in MusicBrainz

Note: Before you do this task you should have completed the Research an instrument not already in MusicBrainz task, also see its intro for more information about this task.

For this task, you should find two instruments that are not already in the database, and then do as much research on these new instruments as possible.

If either of the instruments already has an INST ticket, please do the Add information to an open INST ticket task instead for that one and pick another.

  • Find the Wikidata items. (More about Wikidata items.)
  • Sort out how they relate to other instruments (or each other).
  • Find out as much about the Instruments as possible. (The aforementioned Add information to an INST ticket task has some good information suggestions.)
  • Write an appropriate disambiguation and description that is your own work (i.e., not copied from Wikipedia or other sources). The disambiguation should be as short and concise as possible, and the description should try to capture in as few sentences as practical the gist of each instrument.
  • Example of a good INST ticket

For more info on what is and is not appropriate to add as instruments, see our instrument guide.

To complete the task create two complete INST tickets with all the necessary information (you will need a JIRA account for this) and post the newly created ticket links here when you're done.
