== For rank-2 temperaments ==
Some [[rank-2 temperament]]s can be notated, but only ones in which the [[period]] and [generator]] can be expressed in the format of an FSN interval category. For example, [[neutral]] temperament can have the generator notated as n3, and [[porcupine]] can have the generator notated as 1/3-dM2, because 3 1/3-dim major 2nds stack to a perfect fourth, like with the porcupine generator.

[[Sempahore]] would not qualify because there is no adequate expression for the square root of a perfect fourth.
