Okay, so I've recently found an unnoticeable comma- 117440512/117406179- that is only slightly more than half a cent in size.  It is the difference between five 33/32 quartertones and a 7/6 subminor third, as well as the difference between six 33/32 quartertones and a 77/64 minor third...  I've only seen it mentioned once on this wiki aside from on talk pages- specifically on the page for [[3125edo]]- and I've also been told that it doesn't have a name...  Since this unnoticeable comma involves 11-limit quartertones, can we call it the "Quartisma"?  If so, then when this comma is tempered out, then can we can call the resulting temperaments "Quartismatic"? --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 22:12, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

I have to ask about the name for the temperments that temper out this comma because as I mention to Ill on Sam's talk page, the comma's proposed name "Quartisma" comes from "Quarter" and "Schisma" on account of the comma both involving stacks of quartertones and being extremely small itself, and, the name for temperaments that temper out the Schisma is "Schismatic". --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 23:08, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
