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 3600 equal division divides the octave into 3600 equal parts of exactly 1/3 of a cent each. A cent is therefore three steps; also, the Dröbisch Angle which is 1/360 octave is ten steps. Aside from its relationship to cents, it is of interest as a system supporting [[Ragismic microtemperaments#Ennealimmal|ennealimmal temperament]], tempering out the ennealimma, |1 -27 18>, in the [[5-limit]] and (with the patent val) 2401/2400 and 4375/4374 in the [[7-limit]]. An alternative 7-limit mapping is 3600d, with the 7 slightly sharp rather than slightly flat; this no longer supports ennealimmal, but it does temper out 52734375/52706752; together with the ennealimma that leads to a sort of strange sibling to ennealimmal temperament, more accurate but also more complex.
