Mathematics of the Western music scale/Talk

This article is on the whole, excellent. But the tone of the writing is not really in keeping with how an encyclopedia article should read (it's more like a friendly "How do I" column in a newspaper). Also it is authored - do we have permission to rewrite the article wholesale? When the author gave his/her permission, were they aware of that possibility? MMGB

On the original Talk page, it says we do have permission. --Zundark 2001 Nov 11
