Music?[edit]

@Solidest: I doubt this item has relation to music. May be to look at Q805130? --Infovarius (talk) 20:04, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps. Many articles in different languages describe 3 subjects at once, which are split into 3 items on wikidata. Solidest (talk) 20:26, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with @Infovarius, I removed the subclasses referring to music. We have Q805130 for that as far as I understand. Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 05:26, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Vojtěch Dostál, I'm still not sure that the articles here describe only a literary genre. ballade (Q805130) refers to classical music traditions, while the term "ballad" itself in music refers to several directions and include different subgenres. Solidest (talk) 10:51, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Solidest If you can find sources for that, I don't mind having a third item about "any balladic musical composition" or even "any use of ballad in art". Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 11:03, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Vojtěch Dostál. We also still have many musical genres that are subtypes of this item: https://w.wiki/5Vst. Literally almost 10 times more than the literary genres. Music genres can't be subclasses of solely literary genre. Also check en:Category:Ballads by genre vs en:Category:Ballades (music).
And besides, all general "ballad" items are seem to be a big mess at the moment:
Many articles are linked to incorrect item only judging by the title and premise. p31s, p279s and descriptions are also crossing each other and often are erroneous.
So I think p31=music genre should be kept here, until all of this mess is fixed consistently and completely with all the articles redistributed. Removing p31=music genre and yet not touching its subclasses and external identifiers related to music genres, and also ignoring the fact that some articles explicitly say that this is a musical form and music genre (e.g. Russian one) is not how we do things on WD.

No reason for this to be with capital б in Bulgarian label[edit]
