If the page is about an [[equal-step tuning|equal tuning]] (ET), proceed with caution. You need to be able to write at least a paragraph of manual, human-written content, which must not consist of simple, superficial observations that can be ''easily obtained'' by someone just looking at tables already provided on the ET page (for instance "this EDO performs well in the 2.9.15.11.17.23 subgroup" is easily readable from the table of harmonics generally provided right below such a statement, and is therefore considered trivial to derive), and must in some way ''point uniquely'' to that specific ET ("this EDO tempers out [comma]" or "this EDO supports [temperament]" ''on their own'' do not specify why that particular ET is important as a tuning thereof). If you can do all of that, it can be a main space page, otherwise, it should be a user page. But note also the following:

* All pages for [[EDO]]s and [[EDT]]s below a few hundred have already been created, implying the remainder of ET pages either have hundreds or thousands of steps (putting a greater burden on notability that way), or have obscure [[equave]]s (which need further justification for considering).

* All pages for [[EDO]]s and [[EDT]]s below a few hundred have already been created, implying the remainder of ET pages either have hundreds or thousands of steps (putting a greater burden on notability that way), or have obscure [[equave]]s (which need further justification for considering in the first place).

* We require that any new pages on EDOs, EDTs, etc. to be linked to from the main page "EDO", "EDT", etc. itself; these links have to be inserted manually for EDOs over 1000 and EDTs over 300. Consider the fact that the EDO page is semi-protected into the calculation.
