Cleanup and topics not covered

I cleaned up the article and removed the cleanup tag. There are still a number of topics discussed in Grünbaum and Shephard which could perhaps be discussed on this page but aren't yet:

  • More on -uniform (and -isohedral, -isotoxal) tilings, with additional examples and something on the Krötenheerdt tilings; equitransitive tilings.
  • Non-edge-to-edge tilings: equitransitive unilateral tilings by squares; the problem of tiling the plane with exactly one square of each integer edge length.
  • Star polygons, both in the style of Kepler (Grünbaum and Shephard section 2.5, the lists there being incomplete) and as hollow self-intersecting polygons (section 12.3); I shouldn't make the call as to notability of the former, having published regarding them.
  • The duals of the uniform tilings (Laves tilings).
  • Archimedean and uniform colourings of tilings.
