: For German people "Leipziger Komma" would be the easiest name to remember and pronounce. But in a mathematical of functional sense all the names are just noise. 😉 --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 16:17, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

:: Just did a Google search after [[User:FloraC|FloraC]]'s removal of "Leipziger Komma" from the list of names, and indeed the only instance of this name that came up was the German Wikipedia article "[https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komma_(Musik) Komma (Musik)]", and it listed this name but gave no reference (it has no references at all).

== Organization, and the Archytas comma as a musical interval in its own right ==

Instead of saying "On the other hand, if one should be so bold as to treat the Archytas' comma as a musical interval in its own right", it would be better to reorganize this article after the example of the [[128/125|Diesis]], which has an Approximations section, and following that a Temperaments section which has sub-sections for "As a comma" and "As an interval" (and while we're at it, can we get it a non-comma name?). After all, NOT tempering out the Archytas comma is a requirement for many septimal temperaments to work properly, where tempering it out results in a d (or even dd) val, although in equal divisions of the octave smaller than 44EDO, it will unavoidably be inflated.

: I think I'd have to say that 64/63 could be called either the "Archytas Greater Superprime" or the "Archytas Narrow Inframinor Second" depending on whether it functions as a prime or a second. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 20:28, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

== Complete the Sagittal Notation? ==

Showing the symbol for Sagittal Notation down by this interval is nice, but it would be good to put the Sagittal Notation up for this interval. Unfortunately, I haven't yet figured out how to reference the right symbol myself.

:: Lucius, thank you for the nudge to improve the documentation. The [[Sagitype]] article should help you with learning how to make {{sagittal | |) }} yourself. Please let me know if you still have questions. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 15:39, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
