This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

The wesley family of temperaments tempers out 78125/73728, the wesley comma. The wesley comma is unchanged in Wesley Woolhouse's 7/26-comma meantone – it is an eigenmonzo (i.e. unchanged-interval), which Gene Ward Smith has talked about[1].
