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

Original Wikitext content:

**Interval measure** is the difference between two pitches, usually expressed in the number of steps between them.

Proposal: The **relative interval measure** is the number of steps between two pitches of an [[equal]] tuning.
----
In this concern it should be mentioned, that the [[Cent|cent]] measure is somewhat xenophobe.
That's why I suggest to define the [[Relative cent|relative cent (rct)]] (or centidegree cd) as on 100th of the relative interval measure of one or - same - as 1 percent of the interval between two neigbouring pitches in an equal tuning.
