Welcome, there are a lot of different schools of thought about how to speak about music, see:
This page has been created, therefore, as a way to standardize the terminology used in the Wikipedia with reference to music. It is understood that this is not an attempt to in any way elevate one usage or system over another, but rather to simply establish a set of standards for talking about these things so that we all know what we mean when we say a certain word, and so that all articles will use a consistent form of symbolic analysis. Hopefully, in time, this page will accumulate a glossary of terms which can serve as a standard for the authorship of articles relating to music and particularly music theory.
Revival
It is time to get this project out of the mud! We welcome any participants to come join the newly revived music terminology project! The first step is to get some more modern templates going and revamping the home page. Then from there I will spend time working on recruiting more members. Best of luck!

Please remember, this page is for the use of the project in determining a set of rules on how to edit Wikipedia articles so please, keep this page restricted to these intentions as there is already a large amount of material on the subjects themselves in their respective articles which can be researched starting with music theory. Also while there is already an article on Manual of Style (music) we found it useful to include guidelines on the terminology of music specifically.
