Fact[edit]

Throat singing ≠ Overtone singing

That's all. Slartibartfastibast (talk) 22:58, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with sentence above (Throat singing ≠ Overtone singing) A recent comment (on September 30, 2021) by 157.157.113.126 states that " (Throat singing) is not an umbrella term –.... - Throat singing is synonymous of overtone singing in English." This is not supported by the vast literature on the topic : throat singing may include overtone singing, but that are not synonymous. There are several types of techniques called throat singing that are not mainly characterized by manipulations of perceptive changes in the separate overtones. The former disambiguation structure of the article mentions the following types which are not all of them exclusively effects of overtone singing (Tuvan throat singing, Mongolian throat singing, Inuit throat singing, Rekuhkara, Cantu a tenore) --LEO FUKS (talk) 14:37, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Demeaning[edit]

I removed the phrase "Inuit cultures in Canada (formerly called E.....s)". The removed phrase is considered demeaning as discussed in the third paragraph of this article. That word is hugely controversial as can be seen here. It is not necessary to the clear meaning of the sentence it was found in. Nick Beeson (talk) 13:14, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
