I would suggest a topic in a theory section called, “Other” for those questions not having a section in theory, if someone does not k ow where their question would best fit. Just a thought.

I was thinking to not make it violin specific. Some of us do cello and/or viola, too. I was thinking a general music theory. There are a couple threads in the Playing Violin section on the forum right now. It is just general theory that would apply to any instrument, or no instrument, just music. The specific instrument questions are covered in the learn violin, learn cello, learn viola sections. The fingerboard of a violin would be more likely asked in the learn violin area, as there is now. Just my thinking, just a non-instrument music theory section.

The topics cannot be too specific because most of us would not know where to post a question because we would not understand the preset subtopic name, that is why we are in the Theory Room. If we have a question about timing or rhythm, a preset subtopic  that is called “Understanding Timing and Rhythm” would be easily identifiable. But, if it was called “Time Signatures” not so much because to me, Time Signatures refers to the notations on the staff. We can’t be too specific with using theory terms as subtopics, but subtopics are needed.

I really wasn’t asking for a complicated section, just a section called Theory Room, with some little easy to understand sub topics preset, and one last subtopic called “Other” for those questions that do not fit the easy to understand subtopics that are preset, or that the questioner does not know where to put. The questioner is asking because the questioner does not know, and most likely has little to no music theory. Using nin-elementary theory terms as subtopics is not beneficial to those coming to this section to understand where to put that question. I think it is important to do what can be done to make it as easy as possible to keep it organized so the information can be found by others.

I was also thinking that maybe one last subtopic could be an index. I created one for the cello and have kept it updated as I find more useful information. I am more than willing to do the same for a Theory Room. I would do it the same way, if you have a link to a video, link to an information PDF, etc, just post it as a comment to that with index thread and Incan copy and paste it to the actual index. You can then just delete your post after it is inserted. 

Does this make sense?
