: There is some general organization work to do with the interval region pages since they "occupy" page titles that designate concepts which can be treated or not as interval regions. The stricter definitions clearly belong in the lead section, no matter how the rest of the article ends up being structured. And since tritones can be treated as "three whole tones" with a possibly variable size of "whole tone", or as a synonym of semioctave, or as a region capturing intervals in these surroundings, and possibly even other meanings, all of these should be clearly accessible in the same page. I don't think there's a definition that's "more mathematical" than the other, they just attempt to generalize different properties of "tritones" as observed in various tuning systems, and the page should give a good idea of all possible options in their context. --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 03:28, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

:: I am generally in agreement — I used the terms "methematical" for 3 whole tones and "auditory" for region for lack of better terms. Do you have an idea for better terms? [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 07:50, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

::: Maybe "literal" for tritone = three whole tones. I suppose the "exact semioctave" sense might as well be called the semioctave sense. And similarly the region around these would be the region sense. What do you think? --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 20:24, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

:::: "Literal" sounds okay for tritone = three whole tones. But "semioctave sense" sounds a bit awkward, but I'll admit up-front that I can't think of a better name. [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 21:26, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
