Splitting the table in four

What's the basis of this split? I'm afraid it introduces bias. FloraC (talk) 10:36, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

The split was because it was difficult both read and edit the huge uninterrupted wall of table. The reasons multiples of 150c were chosen is because they are the only spots which have nice round numbers which aren't in the middle of any of the temperaments already listed (eg not breaking porcupine or tetracot or any other temperament in half). Multiples of 200c would work too, but I went with 150c because that means each section is shorter thus more readable. But the choices were 150s or 200s. --BudjarnLambeth (talk) 10:41, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

Frost

Should be treated as taken by 2.5.7.11-subgroup {245/242}, the minimal prime subgroup temp of the frostma. FloraC (talk) 10:36, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

I don't really understand what this means, sorry. I took my quetiapine a couple minutes ago so my brain is very foggy. --BudjarnLambeth (talk) 10:42, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
I get it now. Gordon Wery named frost, not me, but I did say I approve of the name (see the 343edo thread in the forum channel of the XA Discord). I searched the wiki for "frost" and there were no results that seemed to indicate it was taken so I gave the go ahead. Maybe it can be renamed to "frosted", "frosty", etc. Talk to Gordon and whatever he says, do that. --BudjarnLambeth (talk) 10:46, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
