The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.

Original Wikitext content:

A "17edo tetrachord," for the purposes of this naming system, will mean a set of four pitches in [[17edo]] that span a perfect fourth (seven degrees) and include one of each of these:

# 'The unison' in 17edo means 0 (degrees of 17edo) and has the solfege name 'do'.
# 'Seconds' in 17edo include 1 (ra, a minor second), 2 (ru, a neutral second), and 3 (re, a major second).
# 'Thirds' in 17edo include 4 (me, a minor third), 5 (mu, a neutral third), and 6 (mi, a major third).
# 'The perfect fourth' in 17edo means 7 (fa).

===Correspondance:=== 
|| degrees || cents || name || solfege ||
|| 0 || 0 || unison || do ||
|| 1 || 71 || minor second (a.k.a third-tone) || ra ||
|| 2 || 141 || neutral second (a.k.a. two-thirds-tone) || ru ||
|| 3 || 212 || major second (a.k.a. tone) || re ||
|| 4 || 282 || minor third (a.k.a. subminor third) || me ||
|| 5 || 353 || neutral third || mu ||
|| 6 || 424 || major third (a.k.a. supermajor third) || mi ||
|| 7 || 494 || perfect fourth || fa ||

===Tetrachord notation=== 

Tetrachord notation will show three steps (as degrees of 17edo) separated by hyphens.

For instance, tetrachord 3-3-1 consists of
0 (do), the unison, a given;
3 (re), a note 3 degrees up from 0 (do), a second;
6 (mi), a note 3 degrees up from 3 (mi), a third; and
7 (fa), the perfect fourth.

The numbers in a tetrachord name will always add to 7.

===The tetrachords=== 

|| tetrachord notation || solfege || name (suggestions?) ||
|| 1-3-3 || do ra me fa || phrygian ||
|| 1-4-2 || do ra mu fa ||   ||
|| 1-5-1 || do ra mi fa || balkan ||
|| 2-2-3 || do ru me fa ||   ||
|| 2-3-2 || do ru mu fa ||   ||
|| 2-4-1 || do ru mi fa ||   ||
|| 3-1-3 || do re me fa || aolian ||
|| 3-2-2 || do re mu fa ||   ||
|| 3-3-1 || do re mi fa || ionian ||
