Pages that are in the greatest need of fixes (Sadbox)
Importance of fixing the page is scored out of 5 because i can't stop myself from ranking things. Some reasonably good pages, like 31edo, can still have a high score because they get so much attention.
Overly mathematical
5 Otonality and utonality (what are the musical implications?)
2 43edo
3 31edo (needs to be especially accessible to beginners, which it is not)
Terribly written
5 Intro to Xenharmonics (can be supplemented with user:hkm/Intro_page)
2 29edo (needs a clearer focus on essentially tempered chords in the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup, less focus on temperaments of 29edo, and less trivia)
3 FAQ
Unnecessary
1 Oodako
1 Oviminor
2 A bunch of stub pages
Terrible names
Terrible concepts or designs
2 Ploidacot (this is a matter of opinion, so remove if this is too controversial--but we're forcing people to learn new number names for absolutely no reason)
Bad formatting
2 Practically all edo pages <50 (algorithmically generated material, like GPVs and sagittal notations, should be moved to the GPV and sagittal pages, for example. The interval table gets to stay though)
Badness
We say that is the score of a "step" is equal to 1/(min_cents + sqrt(the motion's error in cents)) * badness_penalty**(the complexity of the motion). We then say that the score of a "path" is equal to the product of the scores of the steps. The badness of a temperament is equal to the sum of the scores of all paths that reach the original interval. (This works for irregular and regular temperaments. It also works for scales without JI interpretations, because for every step we can try every JI interpretation.)
