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 just diatonic semitone is the 5-limit interval 16/15, the difference between the major third 5/4 and the fourth 4/3, and between [[3_2|3/2]] and 8/5.

When this ratio is taken as a comma to be tempered, it produces Father temperament where 4/3 and 5/4 are equated. It is a notable temperament because major thirds and fifths become octave-inverses of each other.
