-Jackpot comma is the difference between a stack of 7 [[29/16]] and 6 [[2/1]] (alternatively, between a stack of 7 [[32/29]] and an octave). Equal divisions that are not multiples of 7 cannot temper it out.
+The '''jackpot comma''' ([[monzo]]: 2.29 {{monzo| -34 7 }}, [[ratio]]: 17 249 876 309 / 17 179 869 184), systematically the '''7-29-comma''', is the difference between a stack of seven [[29/16]]'s and six [[2/1|octaves]] (alternatively, between a stack of seven [[32/29]]'s and an octave).
 == Temperaments ==
-Tempering it out produces the [[jackpot]] temperament, which sets 29th harmonic (octave-reduced) to be represented by 6\7.
+[[Tempering out]] this comma splits the octave into 7 equal parts and maps 29/16 to 6\7.
