No evidence given that "6-plus-6" is a notable type of instrument. While some instruments that fit this description are obviously notable, a web search didn't seem to show this term in general use. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:49, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This appears to be a promotion for a term newly formulated by a German named Johannes Beyreuther. He evidently is trying to concoct a term to cover a number of extant instruments which, as already observed, are themselves notable. Up to now, however, I could myself invent a competing term ("symmetrical-hexachord keyboards", for example, or "balanced-scale instruments", or "ambidextrous axe"), and it would be equally viable (or non-viable) as a candidate for a Wikipedia article. I think we should wish Herr Beyreuther all the best of luck with his new coinage and, should it eventually catch on, suggest that he bring it back to Wikipedia at that time.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 22:45, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
