: More properly speaking, they would be derivatives of meantone temperament rather than meantone itself.  They could be viewed as finite note subsets of rank-3 or higher (depending upon the number of different fifth sizes) derivatives of meantone, which is rank-2 (all fifths the same).  [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 20:01, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
