::::: I propose that the 7-limit temperament tempering out 21/20 and 28/27 be called ''trienmean'' in this case. I originally wanted to call it ''trientone'', but that conflicts with an already-existing term. [[User:2^67-1|2^67-1]] ([[User talk:2^67-1|talk]]) 09:00, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:::::: I agree that sharptone really should be renamed (I presume it mainly exists in order to be detempered into scales, so shouldn't just be deleted). But "trienmean" sounds too much like "trimean" or some other kind of extension that splits meantone into three (lithium, mothra, ...). -- [[User:Lériendil|Lériendil]] ([[User talk:Lériendil|talk]]) 13:17, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

::::::: How about Oneirotone? Because once you get past 5edo, [[5L 3s]] (the Oneirotonic scale, of which 5edo has the collapsed version) becomes valid. [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 15:16, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:::::::: I don't think sharptone should be renamed. There is not a strong reason to do so. Also, re-using old names isn't a great idea in the first place, so pls don't take this as a pathway to re-use the name ''sharptone'' for something else.

::::::::: I'll agree on not reusing the old name, but I believe Sharptone shouldn't have taken that name in the first place. [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 05:08, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

:::::::::: It may not be perfect but it's not inappropriate either, so we'll keep it unless there's a strong reason for renaming. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 13:23, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

: Put my vote in for that question as well. [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 05:20, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

:: All I can think is that, sharp of 5edo, the M6 becomes sharp of the m7, and they cross over at 960 cents. [[User:Jerdle|Jerdle]] ([[User talk:Jerdle|talk]]) 09:50, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
