- Motivation
The Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers is a comprehensive encyclopedia giving a lot of useful information on triangle centers. Used as a source in several wikipedia's. Lymantria (talk) 08:20, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
- Discussion
- Oh my goodness, I had no idea there were so many different "triangle centers"! I
Support this proposal - however, I don't think "Kimberling number" is a standard name, and what you're proposing for the value is not a number anyway (i.e. has an X and parentheses). Maybe "Kimberling center identifier"? ArthurPSmith (talk) 18:12, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- You are right about the naming as "number" being less apporpriate (I was hinted by the French and Dutch wikipedia articles linked to by Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers (Q1340177)). I changed the name (added aliases). In publications in stead of parentheses often the number is proposed as subscript. I follow the way it is presented in ETC itself.Lymantria (talk) 21:05, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
