Trying to understand this statement in the '''Birds''' section: "It also tempers out the 31-7 comma, but sadly, combining the two commas leads to torsion."

If there is no way to present the lemma ('''in bold''') in the introduction, this seems to indicate a problem. Any ideas about that? --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 22:21, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

: Plenty of Wikipedia articles don't have a bolded lemma (e.g. [[Wikipedia: List of compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach]]). It's more common when the article is not about a concept but about a collection. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 10:01, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

:: I saw that the page was moved to this lemma and wondered if the current name is really the best choice. So I took a look at the article and found the term "31st octave" neither mentioned nor explained here. To be more specific, I have no trouble with the word "temperaments" at all, but simply wish that some explanation of the term "31st octave" would come out of the article. Thank you in advance for this! --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 12:49, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

::: Thanks for helping me understand. BTW: Did you know that subpages are disabled for the article namespace? So even "1/31 octave" would have been possible. Maybe for English natives this isn't a problem, but I'm often confused by the duality of ordinals and fractions. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 13:11, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

:::: Yea I'm aware. This page was moved following another similar page (→ ''26th-octave temperaments''). I think either title would be ok, but changes must be made to both pages. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 16:25, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
