Move temperament data?
It's strange that this page has a lot of temperaments that are not catalogued elsewhere. I think they should be moved to their respective (comma clan/family) page and then linked here so that this stops being a garbage can of 'temperaments not defined elsewhere'.
I'm also not really sure what the purpose of this page is because I think you can define chromatic pairs for *any* temperament.

- Most of these would simply go to the subgroup temperaments page, which doesn't help much. Otherwise some of them have been logged already, and we've been adding more. I agree with your second argument tho. FloraC (talk) 12:26, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
