== About temperaments in edo pages ==

Reviewing your recent edits in the 298edo page, I find it necessary to help you clear up some misconceptions about temperaments.

First, it doesn't make sense to say an edo is "desolate" of temperaments. In fact, every val supports infinitely many temperaments. The only differences are whether they're named or unnamed, documented or undocumented, notable or not notable.

My other note is that you mentioned "31 & 118 & 298d". It should be pointed out that 31 & 118, 31 & 298d and 118 & 298d are the same temperament in the 7-limit but are three distinct temperaments in the 11-limit, with the first branch named as ''hemithirds''. So you should make it clear what you mean by that. If it's the rank-3 temperament 31 & 118 & 298d at least in the 11-limit, "variant" would be a vague choice of term. "Expansion" is a much clearer description for that relation.

Unrelated but FYI: to enter the cent symbol (¢) if you're in visual editor mode, click on the special character button, which depicts a "Ω", sitting on the same line as "save changes", and it should be in the "symbols" section.

== Please complete your temperament data ==

Regarding your recent edit to the mercator family page, please complete your data when adding a new temperament. Specifically, the branch you added started with the 7-limit, so 7-, 11-, 13-limit mappings should be added besides the 17-limit. This way to catalog temperaments may not be ideal, but we haven't found any better alternative yet.

Since you're in the Discord server, I suppose discussing new temperaments with the community is easy for you. Please make sure to do so. Altho I personally approve of this particular temperament's name, the community has requested that new names should go thru a democratic process. Also, you can just ask us to document it for you instead of silently adding incomplete data yourself.

On your addition, first, the mappings of temperaments in this wiki are in the ''positive generator form'', explained in the ''Normal lists'' page. Please try to normalize it to this form. Second, a regular whitespace is recommended to separate the entries in the mapping. As you can see, the tab space doesn't have any effect on the wiki.

[https://sintel.pythonanywhere.com/ Sintel's temperament calculator] effectively tells you the mapping generators, which was missing in your addition.

I don't know in what measure you got the badness number. I've corrected it. But remember, leaving it empty is better than putting a random number there.
