: I'm in favor of monzos for every comma. I don't like having to factor e.g. 352/351 into component primes. Hurts my head :). There should be a ratio column too, but for large ratios, it should be blank or else just say e.g. "9 digits". I also really like having the color name in there, but I'm biased :) The cents is useful too. Don't see the point of deleting all this info. I think if a comma needs a comment, that comma should be discussed in the theory section of the edo page. That will avoid a mostly empty column that takes up lots of room horizontally. I agree with Godtone (cool name BTW) that the theory section shouldn't merely list commas, since the table does that. The prime limit column can be dropped if for each prime limit we have a gray header row that is one big merged cell going clear across the table. The first row says "3-limit commas", next row is the one 3-limit comma, next row says "5-limit commas", next come all the 5-limit commas, etc. This makes the table narrower. That's good because there's always more room vertically, but not horizontally. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 02:50, 12 January 2021 (UTC) | : I'm in favor of monzos for every comma.

: Slightly off topic, but I would rather patent vals be octave reduced, so that ⟨41 65 95 115 142...] becomes ⟨41 24 13 33 19...]. Less mathematician-freindly, but more musician-friendly. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 03:11, 12 January 2021 (UTC) | |||
