Family vs. clan?
If family means a set of rank-2 temperaments defined by a 2.3.5 comma specifically, and a clan means the same thing but for another (rank-3) JI subgroup, I think it's a bit arbitrary to have separate words for that particular distinction. IlL (talk) 07:46, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
- Seconded. Imo keep clan and refer to everything else as families. No need for extra terminology. - Sintel (talk) 02:24, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
Red links
I'm not sure if it does more good to have the numerous red links. What do we expect a visitor to learn when all they see is a ratio without a page or any further explanations? I think the latest addition of 128/121 is fine since there is some information at least on how the temperaments are like. The others I can't see much. No doubt, one is free to add entries. Problem is a lot of the entries lack substance. I reckon they'd better be removed for now since the substance is not immediately available. FloraC (talk) 14:22, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
Color names
Our compromise in the past has been to avoid placing color names at the top of descriptions (for example in porcupine where it was moved to the infobox). Someone with more time on their hands than me needs to move all the color names here to the body text of each entry, like "In color notation, this temperament is called *****ti." --VectorGraphics (talk) 02:28, 14 May 2025 (UTC)
