Instrumentals have no place on a lyrics site, do they?

Yes they do. First off, LyricWiki is not just a database of lyrics. We don’t aim to provide completed discographies, but we do endeavor to provide information and links to other sites about artists, releases, and their songs. As such pages for instrumentals do serve a purpose on our site. People may also hear of a song title and look for it, either directly on the site or through a webservice, not knowing whether it is an instrumental or not. If a page has been created, they then know that the song is an instrumental and does not have any lyrics, instead of just getting no result. Yet another reason for creating pages for instrumentals is so that these will be entered as such in digital music players. That way, one can distinguish between instrumentals and song pages that have been created but have no lyrics entered as yet.
