Talk:Musical instrument
Definition of instrument
The tin whistle article calls it an atonal instrument, but the atonal instrument article contradicts that and says it's not an instrument. As far as I know, NetHack has no formal classification of "musical instrument". There's the informal definition of "an elf might start with one", but that of course excludes the magical ones. On the basis that they exist to make noise, I think the whistles should be considered atonal instruments, and we can add notes to the appropriate articles that elves never start with them. --Darth l33t (talk) 23:41, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
