I suggest that the content of this page be moved to a new page "Musical notation" (to match the title of the Wikipedia page) to focus on xenharmonic musical notation, and that this page become a disambiguation page to provide examples, names and article links for various sorts of notations that are unique to xenharmonic music or rare elsewhere, of which xen musical notation is only one.

: I moved "Notation" to "Musical notation" and turned "Notation" into a disambiguation page. There will be some more cleanup to do afterwards, but in the meantime I can explain the notations I haven't yet included in the new "Notation" page:

:* Color notation is already listed in "Musical notation".

:* [-1, 0, -1] is standard mathematical notation for vectors (with either round or square brackets). Nested vectors are matrices. Both vectors and matrices are used a lot in RTT.

:* [0 5 10 15 20 25 30] is a notation for scale degrees (e.g. the major scale in 12edo would be [0 2 4 5 7 9 11]). I'm not sure if the brackets are standard, but using degrees is relatively normal.

:* [[List of MOS scales in 12edo]] uses a notation for scale steps (e.g. the major scale in 12edo would be 2 2 1 2 2 2 1. I'm not sure if the lack of brackets is standard, but using steps is relatively normal. This notation and the previous one look very similar, but context is usually sufficient to distinguish them, although a proper standard certainly wouldn't hurt.

:* Node pages are deprecated, I wouldn't pay them too much attention.
