Talk:One-third octave

First sentence
The first sentence of this article is very misleading. Although technically correct A one-third octave is a logarithmic unit of frequency ratio equal to either one third of an octave or one tenth of a decade, when read in isolation, the reader can easily be left thinking that one-third octave and decidecade are one in the same.

It is not explicitly stated that 1/3 octaves and decidecades result in different frequency bands. Since there are no examples of band ranges of either measure, there is no information on the page to to steer the reader away form this incorrect conclusion. This is a common pitfall for non-mathmatical readers (like myself) to fall into.

As this is not my field, I am hesitant to make the edits myself. 


 * The trouble is that the term "one-third octave" has two different meanings. One of those meanings is "one third of an octave". The other is "one tenth of a decade". Suggestions for how to say that more clearly are welcome. Dondervogel 2 (talk) 20:33, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
