The list of downloadable microtonal sounds is in good shape. It does need people to watch relevant sources (tuning and MMM lists come to mind) and add/update the links. A reviewing or rating system, perhaps also of CD releases, may additionally be helpful.

Javascript is by default disabled on Mediawiki for security reasons. However, it could be a really really powerful tool for making accessible, interactive explanations for a lot of things. Just as an example, imagine that any number followed by ¢ would automagically create an exemplary audio file like the one linked to at the top of [[octave]]...imagine something like that playing when you hover over the text. Or imagine a [[wikipedia:Lissajous curve|Lissajous curve]] appears in the background when you hover over a just ratio. There are some of us capable in Javascript, and some extant widgets written in Javascript, like [https://ia601408.us.archive.org/1/items/mosedo.html/mosedo.html Billy Stiltner's MOSedo] and [http://untwelve.org/online_tools AKJ's tools]. We need at least a collected xenharmonic Javascript library, and maybe that project can't live here, but it would be nice to see it eventually integrated somehow.

=== | === Create pages for the Edo recommendation hub page === | ||
Create pages where you recommend a list of [[edo]]s to beginners. | |||
Follow the standardised structure shown on the page [[Edo recommendation hub page]] to make it easy for readers to compare with the other lists. | |||
When your page is done, link it on [[Edo recommendation hub page]]. | |||
And/or create flow charts to help beginners choose edos, and link those on [[Edo recommendation hub page]]. | |||

=== Create a unified "Chains, circles and spirals" page === | |||
On the [[Discord]] today, [[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] posted the following proposal, it received a lot of upvotes: | |||
::"Chains are basically 1d lattices, probably something worth mentioning in some form. | |||
::Circles and spirals are just different ways to represent chains. | |||
::Therefore, it would make sense to have a single page about chains, circles and spirals. | |||
::The merge doesn't have to be done immediately, of course, but I think that's the best course of action in the long term. | |||
::Chains are relevant not only in edos, but also in rank-2 regular temperaments, where the octave dimension is collapsed (as is common in a circle of fifths, for that matter), leaving only one other generator to stack, making a single chain. Several temperament pages have such chains, for that matter." | |||

=== Donations link? === | |||
I'd like to contribute to support the site. Where can I do this? I searched (admittedly several weeks ago now) using "contribute", "contribution", "donate", "donation", "subscribe", and "subscription", but did not find anything. If a page for this (or some functional equivalent) exists (does one exist?), it should have a link from the home page. | |||
