The geometry definitions have been oversimplified and are no longer correct as a result. I'll update them.

Should there be a page separate from Node for the description of a vertex in the context of computer graphics? In polygonal 3D modelling, vertexes (or 'vertices') are one of the fundamental parts of an object; the term 'node' is not really used in this context. -- Wapcaplet
- Yes, I think so. Also for 3D geometry in general. Patrick 01:13 Dec 19, 2002 (UTC)
- Totally agree. In 3d graphics vertex does not have the same meaning as in the context of geometry because in 3d graphics a vertex can exist in a mesh without having any triangles/edges using it (free vertex). In fact, "vertex" in 3d graphics is actually closer in meaning to that in graph theory, with added 3d coordinate information for position, shading and textures. I'm fairly sure it should get it's own mention, but I can't immediately find a good citation for this definition.
i realy think it mean corners 82.69.75.113
"vertex (Latin: whirl, whirlpool; plural vertices)" - didn't someone confuse "vertex" with "vortex"? --Arny 12:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
- Ok, I am changing it to "corner" now --Arny 22:34, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] MOS
According to the manual of style, we should drop the "In [[subject]]" before each entry. Isopropyl 05:11, 9 August 2006 (UTC) I dont't think there is alot of imfomation on this....plus pplz lets do sumthin about the global warming... its warming up the globe....
[edit] Disambiguation page
This is effectively a disambiguation page, so it seems a {{disambiguation}} template should be added... AnonMoos 23:04, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- OK I did it. But I'm a bit of a novice, so it may need some expert tweaks. Steelpillow 10:02, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
