Fractions vs. names in interval lemmas
What about moving the limit to 9 digits, or 4 digits in the denominator? Kite already suggested this for comma tables, I run an (in my opinion) acceptable test on 41edo#Commas. I'd also like to be more consistent in this aspect, i.e. pages that can easily be linked by just copying their title. So the limits about comma tables should maybe also been applied to (comma) page titles itself. What do you think? --Xenwolf (talk) 17:30, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- The change for page titles is minimal, as I don't remember of a single 9-digit comma. I'm not fond of comma tables also subjecting to that rule though. Comma tables can afford to show more digits, and hiding them removes the aspect of the sensation of complexity by the sheer length. FloraC (talk) 16:25, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- The 9-digit rule is nothing other than an extended 8-digit rule. With octave-reduced fractions, cases are possible with 5-digit nominators with a
1as leading digit. In my opinion, the comma tables on the EDO pages are overloaded anyway. There all the information we have about commas is repeated, I assume that most of this information is obtained by copying from other pages, so there could be a number of errors to correct multiple times. And this tendency will rather increase if we don't push back this kind of duplicates. --Xenwolf (talk) 17:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

- I'd say limit and one name or fraction (depending on target lemma) with link, maybe a column for comments. The comments column can be used to contain the information if there is no comma page to link to, but I think we should soon create these pages and link to them as well from the global comma tables. I now think I probably should have started this discussion in the Xenharmonic Wiki namespace. I now try to move it to there: Xenharmonic Wiki: Things to do #Comma tables in EDO_pages. Sorry for the trouble. --Xenwolf (talk) 08:57, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
