The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.
Original Wikitext content:
In 1/2-comma [[meantone]] temperament, each perfect fifth is tempered by a half of a [[Syntonic Comma|syntonic comma]] from its just value of [[3_2|3/2]]. This results in minor sevenths being exactly 9/5 (and major seconds being exactly 10/9). In this system, the "major thirds" are exactly 100/81 or approximately 365 cents, thus bordering on neutral thirds. The fifths of this temperament are even narrower than those of [[26edo]], which is the most likely candidate for a closed system approximating this meantone.
