The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.

Original Wikitext content:

A **dome** is a collection of scales, which are equivalent up to modal rotation, which is produced by shifting the lattice coset of unison vectors around on a [[Fokker blocks|Fokker block]].

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">For example, if you look at all of the scales that you can get with the 25/24 and </span><span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">81/80 unison vectors which contain 1/1, you'll find that you get 49 different scales. If we consider scales which are modally equivalent to be the same "dome," then the playing field reduces to 7 fundamental "domes" which you can get out of the 25/24 and 81/80 Fokker block. Each dome of this block is a collection of 7 scales which are modally equivalent. However, every dome is modally independent from every other dome of the block.</span>

The term (which is a permutation of the letters of the word "mode") was invented by Mike Battaglia to describe the way different [[Fokker blocks]] with the same unison vectors (that are not modes) are related to each other.
