I feel like something tempering out 1029/1024 should be in here considering the mapping would be very simple and Luna already divides the fifth in three. The reason I'm not just adding it is because that's a large comma compared to the Luna comma, but I think it's simple enough that it's worth including Squib (talk) 20:50, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

The temperament you're referring to is hemithirds (whose temperament data is in the hemimean clan). This is one of the more awkward situations regarding extensions, admittedly: hemithirds functions as an extension of the 2.5.7 didacus structure to include prime 3, but its 5-limit restriction is luna, which is enough of a microtemperament to be deemed worthy of consideration in its own right. -- Lériendil (talk) 21:08, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
I want to add a direct link to Hemimean clan#Hemithirds for extensions of hemithirds (and therefore luna) past the 7-limit, since that seems like something people would want, but I don't know where I would add it. I don't know if it's really necessary anyway though because it's only two clicks away currently. -- Squib (talk) 22:17, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
I've put it in the short paragraph before the entry for "Luna" on the page. -- Lériendil (talk) 23:00, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
