	I think a lot of work being done here and on related pages is trying to "reinvent the wheel", considering we already have [[Overtone scale]] and possibly other related pages which might cover the same topic as well. I do think it is important to have this type of scales clearly presented on the wiki, but I don't think "ADO" is how most people would refer to that concept. There are definitely many alternative names out there: [[Harmonotonic tuning\|harmonic series segment]], [[Overtone scale\|mode of the harmonic series]], [[Primodality\|lineal segment]], etc. If each person tries to push forward their favourite terminology (in terms of how to structure the wiki), I'm afraid it will just create more confusion than necessary, even though I believe that alternative terms for a single concept isn't in itself a problem. --[[User:Fredg999\|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999\|talk]]) 03:33, 2 March 2023 (UTC)		I think a lot of work being done here and on related pages is trying to "reinvent the wheel", considering we already have [[Overtone scale]] and possibly other related pages which might cover the same topic as well.

There are definitely many alternative names out there: [[Harmonotonic tuning\|harmonic series segment]], [[Overtone scale\|mode of the harmonic series]], [[Primodality\|lineal segment]], etc. If each person tries to push forward their favourite terminology (in terms of how to structure the wiki), I'm afraid it will just create more confusion than necessary, even though I believe that alternative terms for a single concept isn't in itself a problem. --[[User:Fredg999\|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999\|talk]]) 03:33, 2 March 2023 (UTC)		I think a lot of work being done here and on related pages is trying to "reinvent the wheel", considering we already have [[Overtone scale]] and possibly other related pages which might cover the same topic as well. I do think it is important to have this type of scales clearly presented on the wiki, but I don't think "ADO" is how most people would refer to that concept.

	: I mostly agree with you. I didn't know of the [[overtone scale]] article's existence before you posted this, but reading it now it appears to describe the same concept as this article. The "Mode n" is the same as what this article refers to as n-ADO. So I believe a merging of these articles would be beneficial, although I'm not sure in which direction (absorb "Overtone scale" into "ADO" or other way around?). I also want to clarify I didn't create this article, although I did clean up this article and create the articles for [[2ado]]-[[7ado]] and [[Arithmetic temperament]].		: I mostly agree with you.

	:: I am aware that you did not create this article (and therefore that the terminology has precedent). I just wouldn't want you to spend a lot of time on something that has already been done (in the context of building the wiki), and I think it is worth taking the time to consider the existing terminology before setting on a way to present it on the wiki that makes sense for most readers. While original work is encouraged on the Xen Wiki, topics like this one should be familiar to anyone who has a good comprehension of the harmonic series, and therefore it makes sense to try to use the terminology that people already use. --[[User:Fredg999\|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999\|talk]]) 04:06, 2 March 2023 (UTC)		:: I am aware that you did not create this article (and therefore that the terminology has precedent).
