:::: Not going to lie, I actually like the name "Classic Diatonic Major Third" when referring to 5/4, namely because of the contrast with Pythagorean intervals. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 12:29, 9 October 2020 (UTC) | :::: Not going to lie, I actually like the name "Classic Diatonic Major Third" when referring to 5/4, namely because of the contrast with Pythagorean intervals. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 12:29, 9 October 2020 (UTC) | ||
::::: This is why I love the decision of using the ratio as page titles for interval pages: there is no doubt about the interval, only about the name, sometimes.😉 | |||
::::: I'd say it's most probably a major third. In my opinion, the word "diatonic" does not add anything significant to the name (see wikipedia:Diatonic scale and wikipedia:Diatonic and chromatic), concerning "classic" see above. But I know and respect the central role of diatonic (if I got that right) in your theory, Aura. Of course, even "Major" and "third" are disputable, but in the interest of our readers, I think it is important that a few basic terms from outside are also used here, and in a way that is not too shocking at first. | |||
