I see it fit to categorize temperament redirects cuz they're eventually to be expanded to full articles. For ratios redirecting to interval names, I'm not sure. They're essentially the same concept and will never be distinct articles. So the categories are duplicate, and the maintenance load also doubles. What's your take on this?

: I find it generally useful to also make alternative names findable in categories (they are italicized to distinguish them). In the index of a book, there are sometimes short references instead of page numbers (I consider the categorization of redirects to be the wiki equivalent of this). But I'm not sure the categories are useful overall. Personally, I see them more as "fire stairs" to articles. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 18:22, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
