Many newcomers to xen are daunted by the math-heavy presentation of tunings and basic MOS/temperament ideas on this wiki. Therefore we propose to:
Many newcomers to xen are daunted by the math-heavy presentation of tunings and basic MOS/temperament ideas on this wiki. Therefore we propose the following:
* Section off or subpage all the math-heavy parts of articles (for example to move [[Fokker block#Mathematical description]] to [[Fokker block/Math]]).
* Section off or subpage all the math-heavy parts of articles (for example to move [[Fokker block#Mathematical description]] to [[Fokker block/Math]]).
* Introductory articles and sections should assume at most high school algebra and should focus on practical knowledge for musicians and composers, such as musical examples, how to build a scale in Scala, or what intervals and chords [[17edo]] has. Explanations of abstract concepts should use visualizations and examples where possible (They help even in more mathy contexts).
