***[[Module:MOS genchain]] and [[Template:MOS genchain]] - A proposed template that shows the scale degrees reached by continually stacking a mos's generators up and down from the root.

***[[Module:Xenpaper]] - A proposed module for generating links to Xenpaper, meant to provide audio examples of scales, such as mosses.

***[[Module:Text to value]] - A proposed module that takes in certain text and produces a value; for example, entering a JI ratio of 3/2 produces an output that is the ratio and its cent value in parentheses (702¢).

****This already exists as [[Template:Cents]]

**"Helper" modules (contains only helper functions for other modules)

***[[Module:MOS notation]] - Helper module for MOS gamut and MOS degrees.

***[[Module:Template input parse]] - Proposed helper module for several modules, such as the scale tree.
