:::: This kind of argumentation does not convince me at all. We don't need to redefine a well-known concept to justify a non-zero cell in a table. If we have the tables about prime intervals (and we have and will have even more of it) all that information will be obvious. I'm planning a layout which has two separate rows (original values and octave-reduced ones i.e. <code>v % edo</code>), it's somewhat like the table in [[User:Xenwolf/Fifthspan#Separate mod steps]] (without the ''fifthspan explained'' rows). It's possible to produce tables like this automatically. The only thing (after implementing fifthspan calculation in Lua, after having it done in Python) is to figure out appropriate coloring or border styles for better orientation in the then bigger table. IOW: let the [[patent val]]s be as they are: we will have a more obvious presentation of the information you wish. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 07:32, 15 January 2021 (UTC) | :::: This kind of argumentation does not convince me at all.

== Improve accessibility of wiki and present info in a non-technical way == | |||
In my and [[User:Schrodingasdawg|Adam]]'s experience many newcomers are daunted by the math-heavy presentation of basic MOS and regular temperament ideas and tunings on this wiki. I propose we section off or subpage all the math-heavy parts of articles. Introductory articles and sections shouldn't use linear algebra terms, perhaps except for the most common RTT terms like [[rank]].
