I do not believe we should move the ADO article and related articles to the usespace solely on the basis of terminology. If you are suggesting that the "arithmetic" and "inverse-arithmetic" names should be dropped due to being controversial, it is sufficient to move "ADO" to "ODO" or whatever other alternative name is preferred, "arithmetic interval chain" to "otonal interval chain", "IDO" to "UDO", and so on. | I do not believe we should move the ADO article and related articles to the usespace solely on the basis of terminology.

: That's a fair point. To me, the comparison to temperaments seems tenuous here; this has nothing to do with commas and mappings, the linear algebra foundations of regular temperaments. It seems only to do with generators and possibly periods, which are another theoretical component that appears in RTT. A single "arithmetic interval chain", i.e. with a single generator, to me seems identical to an [[AFS]] (arithmetic frequency sequence), and any ideas you feel are present on this new page that you feel are missing from that page should be merged in. Otherwise, if your original idea is intended to be extending this idea to ''multiple'' generators, then it seems less like a single chain and more like a "lattice" or something like that. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 23:55, 31 March 2023 (UTC) |
