* There was an old temperament that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “catcall temperament”. When I discovered the name, I disliked it because it was demeaning to women. I decided I wanted to change it. Many people on [[Discord]] and on the wiki talk page agreed. I coined the new name “'''[[catnip|catnip temperament]]'''” which has now replaced it.

* There was an old comma that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “the Buddhisma”. There was nothing wrong with that name in and of itself, the problem is that it was explicitly stated to be named after the sectarian group the 969 Movement, and the comma number was 969/968. I thought this was inappropriate, so I proposed a few replacement names on [[Discord]]. Of the names I coined “'''[[969/968|the kingfisher comma]]'''” was the clear favourite, so I renamed the comma to the kingfisher comma.

* There used to be two temperaments named “semidim temperament”. To resolve the confusion, after discussion on the XA Discord, myself and [[Lériendil]] came up with new names for each of the two temperaments. Lériendil coined “[[ammon|ammon temperament]]”, and I coined “'''[[octonion|octonion temperament]]'''”.

* There was an old comma that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “the erogluisma”. Its original namer posted on [[Discord]] that he no longer liked it, and would like someone to please rename it. I coined the new name “'''[[1682/1681|the shaftesburisma]]'''” which has now replaced it.

* Someone else described a new comma and named it “the shikanokonokonokokoshitantanma”. This name was kept, but it was too long for some use cases, so I invented an alternate short version - “'''[[nokotan|the nokotan]]'''” - for use cases where a shorter name is needed.
