When you make a page, make sure it follows the format described under the heading "Standard format". This makes it easy for readers to cross-compare and figure out which recommendation page matches their intuition.
Any editor can also create a flow chart or diagram for choosing edos. Please add those under the heading ''Gallery of edo recommendation charts''.

When you make a page, make sure it follows the format described under the heading "Standard layout (example only)". This makes it easy for readers to cross-compare and figure out which recommendation page matches their intuition.


== List of recommendation pages ==
; Pages that follow the standard layout
(Remove the dummy example ones once two or more real pages have been made.)
* Bob's guide to choosing an edo
* JaneDoe's guide to choosing an edo
* XX_Xenharmon3Raide7_XX's guide to choosing an edo


== List of recommendation charts ==
{{todo|inline=1|add examples}}


== Standard format (example only) ==
; Pages with differing layouts
The page should be titled "''Name's'' guide to choosing an edo".
* [[Collection of edo impressions]]
* [[Xen tunings for beginners]]
* [[Kite's thoughts on optimum EDOs for certain JI subgroups]]


It should open with the text "This guide was written by ''Name'' to help composers who are new to microtuning decide which [[EDO]] (equal division of the octave) they would like to experiment with first.
== Gallery of edo recommendation charts ==


For similar pages by other authors, see [[EDO recommendation hub page]]."

== Standard layout (example only) ==
The page name should be "''Name's'' guide to choosing an edo". Replace "Name" with your own name or preferred pseudonym.
 
The first line of text should be: <code><nowiki>{{edorecc|''Name''}}</nowiki></code> Replace "Name" with your own name or preferred pseudonym.
