I'll start reading over the next few days and then begin to make comments. I am normally a slow reviewer - if that is likely to be a problem, please let me know as soon as possible. I tend to directly do copy-editing and minor improvements as I'm reading the article rather than list them here; if there is a lot of copy-editing to be done I may suggest getting a copy-editor (on the basis that a fresh set of eyes is helpful). Anything more significant than minor improvements I will raise here. I see the reviewer's role as collaborative and collegiate, so I welcome discussion regarding interpretation of the criteria.

An interesting article. I don't see significant problems to this becoming listed. Article needs a cooyedit and tidying up, but on the whole the content appears sound, and that's the main thing. On hold for th standard initial seven days to allow the issues mentioned above to be addressed or queried. I am, as always, quite happy to extend beyond seven days as long as work or communication is taking place. SilkTork ✔Tea time 14:16, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
IMO, another very popular use of the Leslie Speaker was in The Smiths song How Soon Is Now? during the song opening and throughout the song. This is a prototypical example for some college music classes. If I find a reference for this then I'll add that to the Notable Users section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jtmoon ( talk • contribs) 18:42, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
Forgive the dullness of those of us who don't find that clear, but how has that property of the device stimulated efforts at simulation?

The animation is slightly inaccurate in it's depiction of the Leslie speaker function, in that the animation depicts both the horn (treble) rotors and the woofer drum (bass) rotors rotating in the same direction, while the Wikipedia entry for the similar Sharma speaker notes that in a Leslie, these two components rotate in opposite directions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.177.164 ( talk • contribs)
I think it's worth mentioning its importance in Gospel music, especially that of the African-American churches... Many famous jazz and blues singers began their careers by either playing through or singing with a Hammond B3 or C3. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.227.225.226 ( talk) 06:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
In the first section of this article, I see "Hammond were not interested". The reference is to the electric organ mfg. company.
This is the first time I've encountered this anywhere. Does using "were" in this context comply Wiki style? 74.198.131.130 ( talk) 09:24, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
