:::::: Ah, sorry, I see what you mean now. However, now I don't see how ID "seems derived and inspired by" ED any more than EFD and ELD are derived and inspired by E(P)D. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 03:43, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

:::::: I have documented the history here: [[ADO#History]], and also updated the IDO page accordingly. Because this way of using "arithmetic" is contentious:
:::::: a) I have suggested that the pages [[Arithmetic interval chain]] and [[Arithmetic MOS scale]]) be withdrawn from the main wiki and changed to user pages, at least for now (see: [[Talk:Arithmetic interval chain]] and [[Talk:Arithmetic MOS scale]]).
:::::: b) I have added ODO and UDO as additional equivalent bolded terms to all of the recently created ADO and IDO pages, and created redirect pages to them. However, I don't think this is quite enough; I believe that the redirects should be swapped so that the ODO and UDO pages are the destination pages (and accordingly that the order of the bolded terms be switched on each page so that ODO and UDO take precedence, and ODO/UDO used afterward throughout each page).
:::::: c) I also suggest that the ADO and IDO infoboxes be changed to the ODO and UDO infoboxes.
:::::: I have not taken those actions yet, however, because I did not create all these pages myself, and I want to respect CompactStar's authorship and give them a chance to weigh in on the matter. I'm sorry this is a lot of changes and suggested further changes, but I was just not available to spend my time and energy on this issue while it was beginning to balloon out of control these past couple months. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 18:43, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
