User:Tomruen/polyhedron db testing

Welcome to my "Polyhedron database testing" page.

I've linked this to talk pages for polyhedra which I've replaced the stat tables.

Please use this "Talk" page for questions. (Or edit this page as well if you'd like to help with this project.)

History

• 1/20/06: User:Salix alba set up this database system. See User:Pfafrich/test
• 3/2/06: I began extending it. See: Template_talk:Polyhedra_DB

Active templates

• Database templates
  • Template:Polyhedra_DB
  • Template:Polyhedra_snub_DB
• Infoboxes templates
  1. Template:Uniform polyhedron stat table - General uniform
  2. Template:Platonic polyhedron stat table - Regular convex solids
• Wikitable templates
• Template:Uniform polyhedron full table

Example usage

• User:Tomruen/List of uniform polyhedra and tilings
• List of uniform polyhedra by Wythoff symbol
• List of uniform polyhedra by spherical triangle

Polyhedron database

• Tasks in progress:
  • Validation/completion
    1. Compare/correct database to current article list of uniform polyhedra
    2. Add db items - dualname/schlafi/prop/transimage
    3. Add db entries uniform prisms/tilings
  • Stat tables by polyhedron:
    1. Add new stat table templates (Use this for varied "type")
       1. Platonic solid
       2. Archimedean solid
       3. uniform polyhedron
       4. prism (geometry)
       5. antiprism
    2. Replace old stat tables in uniform convex form articles
  • Summary tables:
    1. list of uniform polyhedra and diversify into column sortable copies
       1. list of uniform polyhedra --> redirect to desired "default" below
       2. list of uniform polyhedra by u-index
       3. list of uniform polyhedra by w-index
       4. list of uniform polyhedra by wythoff
       5. etc.
  • LATER
    1. Are last/next "fields" possible for sequencing in stat tables (like done with Johnsons now?)
    2. Determine (generation time) efficiency of one or multiple database files
    3. Expand polyhedron stat table templates and replace for all uniform forms
    4. New database for face-uniform (duals)
    5. New database for Johnson solids
