#scale_of_measurement__scale__graduated_table__graduatedtable__ordered_series  an ordered reference standard: "judging on a scale of 1 to 10"
  supertype:  #touchstone__standard__criterion__measure  a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated; "they set the measure for all subsequent work"
  subtype:  #Beaufort_scale__wind_scale  an international scale of wind force from 0 (calm air) to 12 (hurricane)
  subtype:  #index  a numerical scale used to compare variables with one another or with some reference number
     subtype:  #margin_of_safety__safety_margin__margin_of_error  an index indicating the amount beyond the minimum necessary; "in engineering the margin of safety is the strength of the material minus the anticipated stress"
  subtype:  #logarithmic_scale__logarithmicscale  scale on which actual distances from the origin are proportional to the logarithms of the corresponding scale numbers
  subtype:  #Mercalli_scale  a scale of earthquake intensity; an earthquake detected only by seismographs is a I and an earthquake that destroys all buildings is a XII
  subtype:  #Mohs_scale  a scale of hardness of solids; talc is 0 and diamond is 10; ordering is determined by which substance can scratch another substance
  subtype:  #Richter_scale  a logarithmic scale of 1 to 10 used to express the energy released by an earthquake
  subtype:  #temperature_scale__temperaturescale  a system of measuring temperature
     subtype:  #Celsius_scale__international_scale__internationalscale__centigrade_scale  a temperature scale that defines the freezing point of water as 0 degrees and the boiling point of water as 100 degrees
     subtype:  #Fahrenheit_scale  a temperature scale that defines the freezing point of water as 32 degrees and the boiling point of water a 212 degrees
     subtype:  #Kelvin_scale__absolute_scale  a temperature scale that defines absolute zero as 0 degrees; water freezes at 273.16 degrees and boils at 373.16 degrees
     subtype:  #Rankine_scale  a scale of absolute temperature in Fahrenheit degrees; the freezing point of water is 491.69 degrees and the boiling point of water is 671.69 degrees
     subtype:  #Reaumur_scale  a temperature scale on which water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 80 degrees
  subtype:  #wage_scale__wage_schedule  a schedule of wages paid for different jobs
     subtype:  #sliding_scale__slidingscale  a wage scale that fluctuates in response to the cost-of-living index
