Currently, there is still a mixture of styles that has historical reasons: In the beginning, titles were started in WikiCase because the Wikispaces software used at that time automatically linked such words. Later, the configuration was adjusted so that links were only created if this was specified by appropriate markup. Here, the titles started to look like titles, but to a large extent also with the usual capitalization of all meaningful words for titles (book titles). Then came the switch to MediaWiki with new features that were only slowly adapted (redirects, categories, etc.). Meanwhile, we have moved on to making full use of the wiki software's support. Thus a) pages are always linked regardless of the upper and lower case of the first character (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Cent]] == [[cent]]</nowiki></code> → [[Cent]] == [[cent]]) and b) characters that are appended after the link markup are included in the link label (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[cent]]s == [[cent|cents]]</nowiki></code> → [[cent]]s == [[cent|cents]]). This way, links can usually be embedded in the text without much effort.

== 13-Limit,17-Limit and 19-Limit Comma Pages ==

Hey, I was thinking we ought to start reorganizing the 13-limit temperaments, as well as figuring out how to deal with 17-limit temperaments, so far, just leaning on the preview that Flora provided me in a brief discussion on this matter, I'm thinking it should go something like this:

<pre>

If X is a 3- or 5-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-2 temperaments that temper it out.

If X is a 7-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-3 temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-2 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). See: Marvel family, Marvel temperaments.

If X is an 11-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-4 temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-3 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). If the "X family" page isn't there (as it doesn't have many 13-limit branches), in "X temperaments" there is a brief of the rank-4 temperaments. See: Keenanismic family, Valinorsmic temperaments, Kalismic temperaments.

If X is an 13-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-5 temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-4 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). If the "X family" page isn't there (as it doesn't have many 17-limit branches), in "X temperaments" there is a brief of the rank-5 temperaments. Pages like the Archipelago, the Biosphere and Marveltwin, which list temperaments of various ranks need to be reorganized.

If X is a 17-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank 6-temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-5 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). If the "X family" page isn't there (as it doesn't have many 19-limit branches), in "X temperaments" there is a brief of the rank-6 temperaments.

If X is a 19-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank 7-temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-6 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). If the "X family" page isn't there, in "X temperaments" there is a brief of the rank-7 temperaments.

</pre>

I hope this idea is feasible. The reason I'm stopping with the 19-limit is because aside from 94edo, none of the EDOs between 1edo and 171edo deal with the 23-limit consistently. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 17:08, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
