I got some very helpful comments on my post about the Basis of Articulation article in Wikipedia. I was rather worried that Basis of Articulation and Articulatory Setting might actually be separate concepts, and that they shouldn’t be lumped together in the same article. However, I have now expanded the article, and added a lot of references kindly supplied in the comments. I have also requested a redirect in Wikipedia so that anyone searching for Articulatory Setting is taken automatically to Basis of Articulation.

Ah! I've just seen this after a sending a response to your March blog post. As you'll see there, Constantine Borissoff does argue strongly that the two concepts are separate, but I don't think he'd mind you dealing with them both in the same article. For myself, I wonder if people's notion of an articulatory setting in the English speaking world isn't too settled for us to respect the distinctions that Constantine draws, but I'd be happy to do so if others did.
