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

Original Wikitext content:

61edo refers to the equal division of [[xenharmonic/2_1|2/1]] into 61 equal parts, of 19.672 [[xenharmonic/cent|cent]]s each. It is the 18th [[prime numbers|prime]] edo.

=Poem= 
These 61 equal divisions of the octave,
though rare are assuredly a ROCK-tave (har har),
while the 3rd and 5th harmonics are about six cents sharp,
(and the flattish 15th poised differently on the harp),
the 7th and 11th err by less, around three,
and thus mayhap, a good orgone tuning found to be;
slightly sharp as well, is the 13th harmonic's place,
but the 9th and 17th are lacking much grace,
interestingly the 19th is good but a couple cents flat,
and the 21st and 23rd are but a cent or two sharp, alack!

61 is the 18° prime number in the list of prime numbers.
You could make a lot of sandwiches with 61 cucumbers.
