== Starting note ==
This template starts on C, but most edo pages start on D. I believe this was chosen because D is in the middle of the circle of fifths (F-C-G-'''D'''-A-E-B), leading to the most symmetrical configuration. See also [[Ups and downs notation#Examples: EDOs 12-24]]. I suggest changing the starting note to D for this reason. --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 02:18, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Add shortcut?

I suggest creating a template shortcut, so as to avoid having to type out "Ups and downs note name" every time. An example of that is Template:Catrel, for Template:Category see also. I suggest Template:UDnote. --Fredg999 (talk) 02:07, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Starting note

This template starts on C, but most edo pages start on D. I believe this was chosen because D is in the middle of the circle of fifths (F-C-G-D-A-E-B), leading to the most symmetrical configuration. See also Ups and downs notation#Examples: EDOs 12-24. I suggest changing the starting note to D for this reason. --Fredg999 (talk) 02:18, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
