Speedy deletion of R flat[edit]

A tag has been placed on R flat, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Sorry, but I'm not buying it. I'm a musician. However, giving it the benefit of the doubt, I ran it through Google. The term gets exactly zero relevant hits. I've blocked the title from further recreation, so if you'd like to contribute something meaningful, now's the time. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 22:16, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'll admit that it was an intriguing concept, but I have to tell you, truth isn't as important as verifiability. Unless and until the term comes into widespread use, it simply can't be here. This is a tertiary source of information which relays general information which is already listed elsewhere. In short, this ain't the place to post a new theory.

Of course. Hey, things happen. The inability to communicate in real time sometimes means that communications can get unintentionally hot. Thanks for understanding. PMDrive1061 (talk) 22:42, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Go ya one better: Here's the article. PMDrive1061 (talk) 22:43, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

R Flat[edit]

Legitimacy[edit]

R Flat is a theoretical chord invented by a musical philosopher named Andrew Yerrot. In the key of C Minor, this chord would be played as a C Flat 7th (A 7th added to the regular C Flat Triad) Diminished (All the notes down one half step, and the seventh down a whole step) chord. Since the chord is written C double flat, E double flat, G double flat, and B Triple flat, the chord is rarely, if ever used written in this fashion. Due to popular belief, the idea of a chord that was not named after the standard letters A-G, the idea was thrown out, but the legacy of this chord has continued since.

Symbol[edit]

The R Flat chord would be written as a triangle on the D in bass clef, or C in the Treble clef. It would also be accompanied by a flat accidental with a slash through it. As it is not a written note, it is not standard in any way of musical writing.

Examples[edit]

Russian composer Igor Stotovosok wrote a piece translated as "The Hourglass of Fate" for a quartet of one violin, one viola, one cello, and a double bass. The prevalent use of dissonance did not make it popular or successful in any manor, however, it is the only song documented with an R Flat chord written in it.
