- Please Keep, This is a work in progress. I am trying to create a valid entry for this instrument. There is little information on the web yet other than the manufactures website, several youtube videos of the instrument being played and numerous discussions on several forums. The nearest related instruments are the Halo and Hang. There is no wiki article on the Halo and I have specifically been asked by the BElls manufacturer to not reference the Hang. 80.238.1.134 (talk) 10:31, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Also, in the unlikely eventuality that the article will be kept, if consensus decides that Hang is mentioned in the article, then BEllArt does not have a say. See WP:OWN. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 15:27, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and Redirect to Hang (musical instrument) - What is the difference between the BElls (a brand name) and the Hang (musical instrument), has it become a generic name? Hang is a brand name aparently belonging to PanArt. YouTube of a Hang It appears to me that the Halo is another brand for a hang drum. Here is a Halo being played YouTube of a Steel Halo It does not look much different from a BElls or any other hang drum. There are other variants of the Hang out there. For example, the HAPI Drum (brand name) is a Hank drum (generic) which is very similar to a hang. HAPI Drum YouTube. The Zen Tambour (brand name) is also a hank drum or a steel tongue drum. YouTube of a Zen Tambour It seems to me like the BEllArt company would love a branded page to promote their hang drum, but there is no evidence that the BElls brand is notable enough to stand on its own. kgrr talk 15:31, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
