Articles

1. Tattoo -- There is potential to work here, but a few caveats: this page is getting a lot of traffic and has a long history. It needs some careful work and attention as well as bold edits, but you'll want to interface with the existing editors. For instance, Hyacinth (talk · contribs) has worked on a bit recently. It'd be a huge project to take on, but it's the kind of editing we want to do: you're working with a lot of existing content and thinking carefully about what needs to be reshaped. It seems like a reorganization is needed, but it'd potentially be controversial. (this is why I pinged Hyacinth--to see if he's around/able to respond and if he has any opinions on this matter).
2. Ancient music -- problem here is lack of references. Might be more immediately manageable to do Prehistoric music -- it has a lot of sourced material that you can work into a more Wikipedia-appropriate form.
3. National Museum (Prague) -- almost no citations. Probably written by someone from the museum. While you maybe could fix the citation problem, you'd have to focus on reworking that content into something appropriate with Wikipedia. But this is do-able. Much of the content is self-promotional but you could rework it.
4. Kingdom of Norway (872–1397) -- currently being watched by another editor. It looks like they might still be working--there are a lot of holes in the article itself. So let's avoid.
5. Isabella I of Castile -- high traffic here and lots of discussion on the talk page. I can see significant problems especially with NPOV and tone. This would require an extensive work with the article on the sentence level. If you want to take it on, you could.

I'm going to add the last one and the museum one to the list of available articles, but if you want to take a stab at the Tattoo one, you can. Don't try to do both that and the Isabella one though--they both a rather large tasks. You can also grab a different one from the list if you'd prefer. Etherfire (talk) 19:13, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Prehistoric music

Hi - I have a concern/note about one of the additions to the article for prehistoric music. I noted that you added a section about Native American music to this article, however the section is very, very general about Native American music and actually seems to discuss it in a modern sense. Keep in mind a few things: the music played by Native American tribes nowadays would not necessarily be the same as music played by them in the far, far past. As such, it's not really appropriate to discuss the modern culture in the article about prehistoric music. This needs to be re-written to focus on what scholarly and academic sources say about how the music was performed in prehistoric times. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:47, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
