equilateral page[edit]

Hi I would like to know if it would be possible to add more info.

Is there anything specific you are looking for? You may find Polygon and Regular polygon have more info. --Salix alba (talk) 16:34, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Equilateral polyhedron[edit]

I removed this from the opening:

Similarly, an equilateral polyhedron is a polyhedron with all sides of the same length.

If this is a real classification, it ought to say all sides of the same length (otherwise sides ought to mean faces), but I've never seen it used, or any references. Not even MathWorld has a definition! [1] Tom Ruen (talk) 18:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I guess you mean "it ought to say all edges of the same length". Please let's not use MathWorld as a primary source; it is known not to be always reliable (as well as Wikipedia). I checked on McGraw-Hill technical dictionary. You are right, the phrase "equilateral polyhedron" means something else: a polyhedron all of whose faces are identical. Thank you for spotting this mistake. Paolo.dL (talk) 13:19, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
