What I am missing ''now'' (as in many other articles of this Wiki) is the introduction directly under the h1 headline.

Of course you can also say something about the ambiguity of the term here.		:: @Bozu: Thanks for [https://en.xen.wiki/index.php?title=Microtone&type=revision&diff=47126&oldid=46864 your help with this article].

	I think that there are a few sources of potential confusion. First, although this is a great formal definition for "a microtone," I don't feel that it accurately represents the most common usage of the term. Perhaps there needs to be some disambiguation. Second, there might be a couple of potentially subjective statements in the article. I don't feel that subjective statements should be avoided at all costs, but, perhaps there is a better way to word the article to avoid them where unnecessary. Third, what is "the microtone challenge?" Is it a challenge to produce a piece of music that utilizes more than one tone that are exactly one microtone apart, or is there more to it? --[[User:Bozu\|Bozu]] ([[User talk:Bozu\|talk]]) 15:51, 17 June 2020 (UTC)		I think that there are a few sources of potential confusion.

			: First of all: [https://en.xen.wiki/index.php?title=Microtone&action=history thanks] for the thanks 🙂
			: You are right this article may be confusing. This may date back to its start: the article began as a pun on the literal meaning (etymology) of the term. Now I have the impression that it should serve three different purposes:
			:# a definition in the sense of xenharmonic/microtonal practice. The definition would be '''good for our visitors.'''
			:# the exploration of the literal meaning and the limits of precision (i.e. How many digits of accuracy should a cent value have?). The precision limits would be '''good four our interval tables.'''
			:# can an interval with the size of one classical microtone (after the greeks, 203µ¢) even be relevant to human perception? To prove this right is the "Microtone Challenge" and '''good for our sportsmen.''' 😉

			: I'd be glad for any help in improving this article. --[[User:Xenwolf\|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf\|talk]]) 19:24, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
