If we expand the first line of the wiki main page to say to say "The Xenharmonic Wiki is an open resource for information about [[musical tuning]] and [[microtonal music]], including [[xenharmonic]] tunings as well as [[historical temperaments]] and those of [[world musical traditions]]. This information includes tuning systems and their relationships, [[theory]], [[math]], and [[practice]]."

Then I would be happy for this article to be moved to main space in its current state without any changes, and I would be happy to sign this too.

== Proofreading ==
 
In some quoted text from Ivor Darreq's document in Clarifying the definition of xenharmonic music, I found a few typos, but since they are in quoted text from sources that I do not have, I do not know whether they were in the original source or are transcription errors that should be corrected. I ran the quoted text through through QuillBot to see if I had missed anything, and it found a few more apparent typos.
 
* "12 note forming a series of fifths, out of 53 or 41 or 29?" — seems that this should be "12 notes forming a series of fifths, out of 53 or 41 or 29?"
* "That is,a tuning" — seems that this should be "That is, a tuning".
* "The only exception would be where so few just pitches are used that no interval noticeably different in a real performance of apiece of music" — seems that this should be "The only exception would be where so few just pitches are used that no interval noticeably different in a real performance of a piece of music".
* "I many cases" — seems that this should be "In many cases".
* "I am a composer and I do not want everything I composer or improvise" — seems that this should be "I am a composer and I do not want everything I compose or improvise".
* "It is too late for such persons the stop the Xenharmonic movement" — seems that this should be "It is too late for such persons to stop the Xenharmonic movement".
