This page in a nutshell: Project Mospage is a long-term wiki project to clean up, maintain, and improve all MOS-related pages. |
Goals:
- Rewrite all pages related to individual moment of symmetry scales in a consistent manner.
- Present information on mos pages in a temperament-agnostic manner, while also providing appropriate (and accurate) temperament correspondences.
Scope:
- Primary pages:
- Pages for abstract MOS patterns
- Secondary pages:
- Pages that describe properties and theory regarding MOS scales
- TAMNAMS-related pages
Members
- Ganaram inukshuk - Nearly all templates and modules, style guide, TAMNAMS integration, literally everything!
Special thanks to:
- SupahstarSaga, Inthar, and Godtone for their initial work on TAMNAMS and initial mospage rewrites.
- Fredg999, for helping with finding what info is important to include in the mos templates.
Open tasks
Primary tasks
For MOS pages:
- Provide a style guide for MOS pages for:
- Pages with sparse info (generally scales with high step counts).
- Pages with plentiful info (generally scales with step counts 6-10).
- Rewrite all MOS pages in accordance to style guide.
- Rewrite 5L 2s and 5L 3s pages as an inaugural run.
- Rewrite pages with step count 7.
- Rewrite pages with step counts 6-10.
- Rewrite pages with step counts less than 5.
- Rewrite non-octave pages.
- Provide temperament-related info in appropriate sections, with assistance from Xenharmonic Wiki:WikiProject TempClean.
- Provide information for notable temperament correspondences.
- Verify all scale trees.
- Develop and refine appropriate templates to automate the presentation of common MOS-related data.
Secondary tasks
For theory pages:
- Provide satisfactory definitions of a MOS scale at both the beginner and expert level.
For TAMNAMS:
- Redefine TAMNAMS as a notationally agnostic means of presenting MOS scales, not just a system of naming scales, scale degrees, and intervals.
- Ensure all TAMNAMS names are satisfactory.
- Add a protocol for namechanges.
- For TAMNAMS Extension, verify that these names are also satisfactory.
- Give names used by Scale Workshop 3 its own section. Clean up these names or clarify their usage wherever they are used on MOS pages.
- Provide a general, systemized naming scheme for child mosses.
Miscellaneous tasks
For MOS pages:
- Provide audio examples.
For categories:
- Possibly split theory pages from Category:MOS scale into Category:MOS scale theory
- Possibly split Category:Abstract MOS patterns into Category:Octave-equivalent abstract MOS patterns and Category:Non-octave abstract MOS patterns
Other:
- Rewrite the page Catalog of MOS
Categories under jurisdiction
- Category:Abstract MOS patterns (main-namespace pages only; octave-equivalent mosses are prioritized first)
- Category:TAMNAMS
- Category:MOS scale (theory pages only)
Templates
Templates for MOS pages:
- Template:MOS intro
- Template:Infobox MOS
- Template:MOS data - this is a combination template of the templates listed below:
- Template:TAMNAMS name
- Template:MOS modes
- Template:MOS tunings
- Template:Scale tree
Templates whose use is unclear:
Disused templates that may be worth reviving:
