Category:Lauda

It's not obvious how an empty category can be deleted; plural of course is Category:Laude. Richard Mix (talk) 05:31, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

Brittanica.com says "Lauda, also spelled Laude (Italian: “canticle, hymn of praise”), plural Laude, or Laudi". — Barry Johnston (talk) 20:43, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
Interesting! Harvard calls these "less correct", while NG only mentions "Laudi" ("Saudi", autocorrect keeps insisting) as a variant. Richard Mix (talk) 22:54, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

List of subgenres

The list of categories used for subgenres is in two parts, the subcategory lists in Category:Sacred music and Category:Secular music (total of 79 categories). But there are more subgenres in use than those would suggest. This list was derived from a data dump from 2019, with spelling corrections (total of 101). The categories are now linked on the page, as I should have done long ago. — Barry Johnston (talk) 00:28, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
