Many newcomers to xen are daunted by the math-heavy presentation of tunings and basic MOS/temperament ideas on this wiki. Therefore we propose to ~~section~~ off or subpage all the math-heavy parts of articles (for example to move [[Fokker block#Mathematical description]] to [[Fokker block/Math]]). Introductory articles and sections should assume at most high school algebra.

Many newcomers to xen are daunted by the math-heavy presentation of tunings and basic MOS/temperament ideas on this wiki. Therefore we propose to:

* Section off or subpage all the math-heavy parts of articles (for example to move [[Fokker block#Mathematical description]] to [[Fokker block/Math]]).

* Introductory articles and sections should assume at most high school algebra and should be focused on practical knowledge for musicians and composers, such as musical examples, how to build a scale in Scala, or what intervals and chords [[17edo]] has.

* Improve presentations of regular temperament tunings on temperament pages.

** Linear algebra data such as mapping matrix and badness should be hidden under a dropdown view.

** Have ScaleWorkshop links for MOSes of size 5 to 10.

Further proposals coming.
