  1. You can contribute to improve the Encyclopaedia with reviews, corrections or new articles. All the articles are expected to be theoretical or practical, preferably written in English. You can use 'Google translator' to read or write in your own language. If you cannot write in English, you can submit your contribution in other language, preferably in Spanish, French or German. We hope that other reader will translate it into English.

  2. You should contribute only when you have something interesting to show or something interesting to ask to other members. Always about musical instrument making and musical acoustics.
