There seems to be somewhat less standardization of notation for nonoctave scales compared to octave-equivalent scales. So, here I will outline some notations for nonoctave scales, largely based on ups and downs notation and TAMNAMS, with the most common periods (e.g. 3/2, 3/1, 4/1) being prioritized.
3/2-equivalent notation
3/1-equivalent notation
For no-twos scales, I propose applying the Pythagorean principle of using the next highest prime number as the generator, and basing notation on the 2L 7s⟨3/1⟩ MOS generated by ~5/3, with 9 naturals CDEFGHJAB.
