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)

I just called it Om temperament because there's only one temperament-distinct pitch in the whole system, kind of like "Om" is the only word you need to create the whole universe. —[[User:Keenan Pepper|Keenan Pepper]] ([[User talk:Keenan Pepper|talk]]) 22:09, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
