Merge suggestion
editAs far as I can see, "Stone marimba" is a synonym for "lithophone", and the newer article (Sept 2012) should not have been created. A redirect from that term (SM)to this (L) would suffice, and the content of that article would be appropriate added to this long-established one. PamD 19:09, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
- A redirect or selective merge sounds good. Selective largly cause the stone marimba article was a work of spam. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:04, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- Agree to a merge of sourced content, but not to a redirect sans a merge. Northamerica1000(talk) 11:30, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- Uncertain -- this needs a check for proper sources, which I'll do this Thursday at NYPL-Performing Arts when I'm there as Wikipedian in Residence. If I can not find anything more I agree with both Pam and NorthAmerica that it should be merged almost entirely.
- In fact,I wonder whether each of the individual instruments listed here will prove to be worth an individual article. I'll see what's available.
- But one of those that does have an article & clearly merits one needs to be deleted & rewritten. The article on The Musical Stones, is unfortunately essentially all of that extensive article turns out to be a copyvio from their web site, and I've marked it for deletion as such. If anyone wants to do it, the references listed there were

Ringing rocks , natural lithophones, Keswick Museum, Grove
editThere's a fascinating article at Ringing rocks, expanded from this in Nov 2011 to this in March 2012 by a single dedicated editor who has also left a detailed exposition on the talk page and has made no other edits! A WP:SPA of the most useful variety, it appears.
This article on Lithophone perhaps needs to distinguish between rocks played in situ and those shaped and rearranged for playing.
I might wait until Keswick Museum and Art Gallery reopens after its current major refurbishment closure (and will update the museum article accordingly!) before trying to sort out the various sets of Lake District stones held there. Grove Music Online has a 750-word article "Lithophone" and says that "Some of the most remarkable lithophones in existence are to be found in the English Lake District.", so there's scope for more content and/or more articles, I'm sure.
