Parakleischis: rename centenniamajor to peithoian by namer's decision + the fact that the "-major" ending in centenniamajor can potentially be confusing as the temp has no intrinsic "major" quality.

=== Centenniamajor ===
=== Peithoian ===
Centenniamajor is an extension of parakleischis which retains the 5-limit mapping of 118edo and provides the correction for 13th harmonic. 13-limit is the first prime limit that 118edo does not tune consistently, and the goal of centenniamajor temperament is to expand on that. Named after the fact that 18 is the age of majority in most countries, and 100 (centennial) + 18 (major) = 118.
Peithoian is an extension of parakleischis which retains the 5-limit mapping of 118edo and provides the correction for 13th harmonic. 13-limit is the first prime limit that 118edo does not tune consistently, and the goal of peithoian temperament is to expand on that. Named after the minor planet [[wikipedia:118 Peitho|118 Peitho]].
