Line 161:

# no interval within the chord is off by more than 50% of an edo step.

: I think the formulation "1:3:5:7:9:11 is consistent in 31edo" is more obviously meaningful than "31edo is consistent in the 11-odd limit". A set of odd numbers such as an odd limit corresponds to a harmonic series chord independent of voicing.

=== Temperament restriction policy on selected pages ===

It seems the proposal for making the temperament material more accessible has failed. It might be better for pages intended for a general audience to be as isolated as possible from the temperament pages.

'''Proposals:'''

# Pages intended to be read by a general audience and those unfamiliar with RTT, such as MOS pages, should not mention a temperament at all, unless the temperament has been used in some reasonable number of compositions (20? 30?). Pages on which this temperament restriction policy is active should be clearly marked for editors.

#* When linking to a temperament name, it should link to a page describing the temperament for a general audience, not a technical temperament entry.

# The same threshold should apply for creating a temperament page.
