Mapping format

Example page: https://en.xen.wiki/w/Hanson_and_cata

Why use the reduced mapping? Why not <1 0 1 0] <0 6 5 14] instead of <1; 6 5 14]? I personally find the missing numbers very useful. And there's plenty of room on the screen for them. (Quibble: the term "reduced mapping" means other things as well.) --TallKite (talk) 00:26, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

• Missing numbers can be reconstructed from the generator tuning. Lériendil (talk) 00:36, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Cents format

Example page: https://en.xen.wiki/w/Hanson_and_cata

Why overspecify the cents so much? Seems misleading. The comma basis is sometimes 2.3.5 and sometimes 2.3.5.13. Wouldn't the exact cents of the optimal generator vary depending on which comma basis is used? And isn't the choice of CTE over other standards somewhat arbitrary? I'd rather see "~317c" than "317.111c". No information is lost because all the exact tunings for specific temperaments already appear on the "Kleismic family" page, where they belong. --TallKite (talk) 00:26, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

• For Kleismic it's accurate enough that "317.1c" should be used in preference to "317c"; CTE was arbitrary but I'd rather select just one generator. This was 2.3.5.13 CTE I suppose. Lériendil (talk) 00:36, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
