Donna Stoneman?[edit]

Why isn't Donna Stoneman of the Stoneman Family and renowned for many years as "Queen of the Mandolin" not on this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.212.80.149 (talk) 21:05, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

She wasn't on the list because no one added her. Thank you for the suggestion! Adding her now.Jacqke (talk) 05:25, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mandolin orchestras[edit]

Shouldn't this list of mandolin orchestras be on the Mandolin orchestra page instead of here?—Anne Delong (talk) 16:39, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
