thread_title: too technical tag

message: I have expanded the nonconvex tiling section to a complete list from Coxeter. I'll try to get some images and better tables going in the near future. 
I'm thinking to combine all 39 into one table, if it makes sense when I have images for all of them.

replies: text: The list of tilings with apeirogons in Uniform Polyhedra is not complete.  A more complete list is in Grünbaum, Miller and Shephard, Uniform Tilings with Hollow Tiles, pp 17-64 of The Geometric Vein: The Coxeter Festschrift.  To quote p.57, "Since 1953 several new tilings using apeirogons have been discovered".  This also considers tilings using zigzags, which also meet the flag-transitivity condition for being considered infinite regular polygons.  I don't know if more have been found since 1981 or if completeness has been proved. Joseph Myers 00:55, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The introduction to this section says Shown with Poincaré disk model. In the Poincaré model, lines of the geometry are segments of circles contained in the disk orthogonal to the boundary of the disk, or else diameters of the disk. Some of the figures shown here, for example 
Order-4_pentagonal_tiling, use Euclidean straight lines to represent lines of the geometry and so appear to be shown with the Klein model. Nick Levine 18:01, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The lines do look straight. I'm not sure if they are actually drawn straight, or just look that way, but the projection is Poincaré disk model. The Klein model looks very different - polygons get flattened near the boundary. Tom Ruen 18:52, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah, I agree, it does look like the Poincaré projection. But the lines look wrong, in some cases clearly so. Hmm, that's going to be an annoying job to fix. Nick Levine 19:11, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Okay, I uploaded a new version with curved edges :Image:Uniform tiling 54-t0.png - it was a checkbox in the program. I don't have the time to remake them all that way if you really like it better. It's just a difference between drawing lines on the hyperbolic plane, or drawing lines in the projected disc. I thought the topology was the important thing. Tom Ruen 21:50, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks. For the avoidance of future doubt, should we than note at the head of the section what's going on? Nick Levine 20:05, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Are any tilings in this article topologically equivalent to:
Take the familiar square tiling. Divide one square into 2 equal parts by a vertical line. Have each row and column alternate between vertically-divided squares and horizontally-divided squares. (Squares that meet at a corner will always be divided the same way.) Georgia guy (talk) 15:31, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The reference to
https://books.google.com/books?id=5rPnCAAAQBAJ&lpg=PA169&ots=kdjtDmwjqQ&dq=Shubnikov%E2%80%93Laves%20tilings&pg=PA169#v=onepage&q=Shubnikov%E2%80%93Laves%20tilings&f=false (link text "Encyclopaedia of Mathematics: Orbit - Rayleigh Equation", dated 1991)
is a bit odd:
* The link (to google books) says the text cannot be presented.
* It probably ought to use 
* The article https://www.encyclopediaofmath.org/index.php/Orbit has nothing about tilings.
* At https://www.encyclopediaofmath.org/index.php/Rayleigh_equation I read that this is a differential equation, which seems irrelevant.
Can anyone fix this?
