Talk:Diminished second

Diatonic interval?
As the article stands, a reader would come away from it with the assurance that the diminished second is a diatonic interval. (Read, checking for occurrences of the word diatonic.) Is this a good idea? In one limited sense the interval is diatonic, but in some other senses it certainly is not (see Diatonic and chromatic). Perhaps this needs some work.
