Helpful examples

This is the best WP article I've found on modes. I appreciate the scales and especially the example phrases from chants. One other set of links would be worthwhile: links to real performances of the chants referenced in the table, if relevance and copyright issues can be solved.

Merge 'Modern modes' tables

The first two tables in the "Modern modes" section are nicely structured, especially the staggered columns in the second one. The two tables are mostly redundant, however, and merging them into a single table would be more concise. (And a professional bass guitar and music theory teacher agrees with me.)
