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

Original Wikitext content:

The [2,3,5]-[[Just intonation subgroups|subgroup]] comma for the gamelismic clan is the gamelisma, 1029/1024, with monzo |-10 1 0 3>. For any member of the clan, and for the gamelismic temperament itself, this means three 8/7 intervals give a fifth, 3/2. In fact, we find that 3/2 = (8/7)^3 * 1029/1024. From this it follows that gamelismic temperaments tend to flatten the both fifth and the 7/4, or if they do not, the other of the pair must be flattened even more.
[[36edo]] is a good tuning for gamelismic itself, though if the full 7-limit is desired, [[72edo]], [[77edo]] or [[118edo]] might be preferred.
