Since it's infobox says "Augmented triad" and while it mentions the Augmented sixth chord it does not cover any other chords. Hyacinth (talk) 06:35, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the enharmonic equivalents from the Augmented triad chord table. I think it's unwise to imply that C sharp to F is a major third. The people who are least likely to be misled will definitely not need to be told that E sharp is the same note as F. Rigaudon (talk) 22:39, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Stevie Wonder brought the augmented chord into the mainstream of soul music in his song "Don't You Worry About a Thing." Previously in this genre it was used mainly in the form of a passing tone.Euonyman (talk) 21:41, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article seems to use the notations "aug" and superscript "+" without ever defining either. I think it would be good to put in a sentence describing these notations. I would do it if I had confidence in my knowledge of chord-naming conventions. However I am for now left unsure about the correct notations and their meanings. Thanks if you can clear that up.CountMacula (talk) 04:42, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The "augmented" chords in Haydn's Op 54 No 2 trio are augmented sixth chords, not augmented triads. Haydn op. 74 no. 3 has a brief augmented triad in the second movement, measure 7, beat 3. There are probably better examples. 2001:B07:6462:1B8E:FCA8:ACD6:D8AA:61D (talk) 18:36, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
