Talk:Trivial temperament: Difference between revisions

Line 7:

: What I can tell at a glance from this Wikipedia article is that this Hindu sense of "Om" is typically capitalized, but ''not'' in all caps. So if this xenharmonic object's name is meant as a reference to this Hindu sense of Om, then it should match its capitalization, unless there's some other consideration. If there is, then ''that'' consideration should also be surfaced, as well as explained in the article itself. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 19:14, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

:: Yeah, a lot of temperament and comma names are in-jokes made by the original creator without explaining and it can be very hard to find out when and why they were called that, and if it has any deeper significance or a backronym attached. I've been irritated trying to track down info like that in the past as well. Looking at the revisions list, Keenan Pepper would be the person to ask in this case, as it's present right from the first version of the article and he created it. --[[User:Yourmusic Productions|Yourmusic Productions]] ([[User talk:Yourmusic Productions|talk]]) 21:38, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
