Xenharmonic Wiki:WikiProject Mospage: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 21:16, 24 August 2024

This page in a nutshell: Project Mospage is a long-term wiki project to clean up, maintain, and improve all MOS-related pages.

Page is work-in-progress. To be moved to appropriate namespace once deemed complete.

Goals:

Scope:

Primary pages:
- Pages for abstract MOS patterns
Secondary pages:
- Pages that describe properties and theory regarding MOS scales
- TAMNAMS-related pages

For MOS pages:
- Provide a style guide for MOS pages for:
  - Pages with sparse info (generally scales with high step counts).
  - Pages with plentiful info (generally scales with step counts 6-10).
- Provide temperament-related info in appropriate sections.
  - Verify all scale trees.
- Develop and refine appropriate templates to automate the presentation of common MOS-related data.
For theory pages:
- Provide satisfactory definitions of a MOS scale at both the beginner and expert level.
For TAMNAMS:
- Redefine TAMNAMS as a notationally agnostic means of presenting MOS scales, not just a system of naming scales, scale degrees, and intervals.
  - Ensure all TAMNAMS names are satisfactory.
  - Add a protocol for namechanges.
- For TAMNAMS Extension, verify that these names are also satisfactory.
  - Give names used by Scale Workshop 3 its own section. Clean up these names or clarify their usage wherever they are used on MOS pages.
  - Provide a general, systemized naming scheme for child mosses.

 ** Possibly split theory pages from [[:Category:MOS scale|Category:MOS scale]] into [[:Category:MOS scale theory|Category:MOS scale theory]]
 ** Possibly split [[:Category:Abstract MOS patterns|Category:Abstract MOS patterns]] into [[:Category:Octave-equivalent abstract MOS patterns|Category:Octave-equivalent abstract MOS patterns]] and [[:Category:Non-octave abstract MOS patterns|Category:Non-octave abstract MOS patterns]]
