Please notice the difference to contralto (Q37137), which is intdended to use only for very low womans voice, similar to male tenor voice.--Giftzwerg 88 (talk) 22:06, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
Anyone care explain the difference from alto (Q54634991)? User:Rodomonte? --Infovarius (talk) 23:38, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- contralto (Q37137) is the low woman voice (not just the very low one). There is a common misunderstanding, because the english/italian term „contralto“ is simply called „alto“ in many other languages. In german and some other languages there is also a „Kontra-Alt“ (deep contralto (Q54635335)), which is used for very low voices, but is not the same as the english/italian „contralto“. alto (Q54634991) is just the voice range, which can be used for female or male singers. This item alto (Q6983813) is meant for the choir voice. See also the german discussion page de:Diskussion:Alt_(Stimmlage)#Interwiki_Links_Contralto. There is probably no way to create consistent wikidata items. The main item for the female voice should by contralto (Q37137). --Rodomonte (talk) 07:46, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
- Please once more: what's the relation between "just the voice range" and "the choir voice"? Subclass in any direction? OR equivalence? --Infovarius (talk) 19:16, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry, I have absolutely no idea how to solve this. There are different articles in some wikipedia languagues, so they need different wikidata items. As I don't even understand most of these languages, I can't relate them correctly. The term „voice range“ seems to be very generic. --Rodomonte (talk) 07:36, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
