	== ~~Start exploring~~ ==		== Explore the genre library ==
	* '''~~Genres~~:''' [[Salsa]] · [[Cumbia]]		The first researched collection covers all '''510 genres and musical practices''' currently in the globe. Each article brings together history, musical characteristics, living communities, representative artists or practitioners, related listening and references.

			'''[[Special:AllPages\|Browse the alphabetical article index]]''', or use the search box to find a genre. The globe's genre choices also link to their articles.

			* '''Latin America and the Caribbean:''' [[Salsa]] · [[Cumbia]] · [[Forró]] · [[Changüí]] · [[Son jarocho]] · [[Tango]]
			* '''Africa and West Asia:''' [[Highlife]] · [[Afrobeat]] · [[Taarab]] · [[Maloya]] · [[Tarab]] · [[Persian classical music]]

			* '''North American traditions and global musical families:''' [[Blues]] · [[Jazz]] · [[Métis fiddle]] · [[Country]] · [[Hip-hop]] · [[House]] · [[Rock]]

			These are editable first-pass articles. Musical categories can overlap, change through time and mean different things in different communities. MuGlobe describes cultural identity without ranking cultural worth.

			== From an article to the globe ==
			The '''Hotspot mushrooms''' section at the bottom of each genre article is a readable, editable description of its musical landscapes. Broad connected heartlands include the communities between prominent cities; meaningful separated scenes can have their own fields.

			The shaded map expresses informed editorial judgment about musical affinity. Its radius and strength are map settings, not measured percentages of listeners. Editors revise the article's table, and a deliberate compilation publishes that accepted data to the globe.

			== Music and place ==
	* '''Countries:''' [[Music of Colombia]]		* '''Countries:''' [[Music of Colombia]]
	* '''Musical regions:''' [[Music of the Brazilian Sertão]] · [[Music of Brazil Nordeste]]		* '''Musical regions:''' [[Music of the Brazilian Sertão]] · [[Music of Brazil Nordeste]]

	These initial articles are clearly marked starters. The existing globe contains a much larger research catalogue; importing and editing that material into complete articles is a subsequent editorial task.
