Template loop detected: Wikipedia:WikiProject Music theory/Template/AotM Template loop detected: Wikipedia:WikiProject Music theory/Template/CanYouHelp Welcome to WikiProject Music theory! Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of music theory and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in music theory. If you would like to help, please join the project, inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list below.

If you are new to Wikipedia, the first thing to do is to join. See Wikipedia:How to log in. There is also a FAQ at Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ.

Goals

  • Expand coverage of music theory topics in Wikipedia.
  • Establish a basic set of guidelines for music theory articles.
  • Recruit Wikipedians into the music theory project.

Scope

This WikiProject encompasses articles on:

  1. The mechanics of music and how music works.
  2. Elements of music such as melody, harmony, rhythm, pitch, texture, etc.
  3. Compositional form and structure.
  4. Theories of harmonization.
  5. Music notation.
  6. Music and mathematics.
  7. Musical analysis.
  8. Sight singing and ear training.
  9. Music theorists

The scope of this project covers Western music only and does not cover notation systems or terminology created or used in other cultures.

Guidelines

Project code of conduct

The Music Theory Project believes in collaboration and compromise. Edit warring is evil and strongly deplored, so please don't do it. Take the initiative and be bold, but if you encounter opposition discuss matters calmly, either with the user in question on the article's talk page, or the project talk page if a wider audience is desirable. Please don't indulge in a revert-war. Thanks for reading this.

Stubs

Wikipedia is developed from red links to stubs and then to full articles, so creating stubs is a stage in that process. (It is helpful if the stubs include sufficient information to be viable in their own right, e.g. a composer stub should at least include dates, nationality and major works.)

Here is a template message that is used for music theory topic stubs:

We have an official Music Theory Project Talk Page banner indicating the involvement of the project. There are currently no bots adding this banner. All articles with Music Theory Project banners are in Category:WikiProject Music Theory articles.

There is also a project welcome box for new participants, using the code {{Music Theory welcome}}. A selection of available userbox templates is at Wikipedia:WikiProject Music Theory/User and project boxes.
