I didn't see it in the lessons section. I think Jazz Advice has a good article. Possibly contentious but interesting.

Next, raise the seventh (to D#), and rewrite your other chord qualities which are changed by that accidental.

If the topic was about diatonic, why the talk about harmonic&melodic minors? I mean, the diatonic scale has 3 minor modes. And the "diatonic chords" ain't anything else than stacked 3rds built from their proper scale degrees or..? Hm, "Take five" - all natural and diatonic except the ending of the B part for spice.

Diatonic and chromatic - Wikipedia
'Very often, diatonic refers to musical elements derived from the modes and transpositions of the "white note scale" C–D–E–F–G–A–B.[4] In some usages it includes all forms of heptatonic scale that are in common use in Western music (the major, and all forms of the minor).'
So it could mean only Aeolian (Natural Minor) or all the Minor scales depending on who you are talking to.
FWIW, I would include the harmonic minor because chords of harmonic minor are so common in, like, music, it seems silly not to.
I suppose you may as well throw in the melodic minor because Bach used it for chords, at that.

Thanks, I thought I've missed something. That "some uses" just complicated my life... or rather - today I found out its more complicated than it seemed... gosh.

Nothing is ever unanimous in music lol

I'm beginning to think Gmo posted this abc-level-anybody-can-google-it-in-three-seconds question just to see how many pages it would run to. For a laugh.
