Shortcuts

Welcome to WikiProject Polyhedra. Here, it is a project to standardize Wikipedia's coverage on polyhedrons, including becoming a higher-status class as in good articles, featured articles, and featured lists. As for the background, polyhedrons can be found in many real life, such as in popular culture, applications in science, and many more. Anyone from either this project or the outside of this project is welcome to improve them.

Tasks

Improving articles on polyhedrons by removing excessive tables per WT:WPM.
Add 3D models to all polyhedron articles, including the uniform polyhedra (and compounds), Johnson solids, stellations of the icosahedron, and other special shapes. I and TilmannR have already created most of these, and I'm working on some of the missing ones (pyramids, antiprisms, trapezohedra and the uniform compounds). It's just a matter of adding them with a short description such as "3D model of [shape name]". For convenience, I've been compiling these models on my userpage, where a download link with all the GGB and STL files I've made can also be found. – OfficialURL (talk) 03:45, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stannic — building the database of tessellations on Wikimedia Commons while I have time for it.
RobertLovesPi -- Will work on improving clarity and accessibility in polyhedra-related articles. Also may begin replacing numerous unmoving polyhedral images made with Stella 4d with otherwise-identical rotating .gifs made using the same program. If anyone thinks this is a bad idea, please shoot me a message to that effect.

KingAntenor There is definitely some potential here.
OfficialURL (talk) – I'll be adding 3D models to all uniform polyhedra and Johnson solids (credit to TilmannR for creating many of these in the first place), as well as translating many pages to Spanish.
هيربد فودازى٢ (talk) 09:11, 6 July 2021 (UTC)-I'll mainly improve pages in Persian Wikipedia.[reply]
