[edit] Polygon (disambiguation)

• All but one of these links that are pointed to in this dis-ambiguation page are simply kinds of polygons defined by types of restrictions except one, POLYGON. Thus, is this dis-ambiguation page any different from simply a link to POLYGON at the top of the Polygon article?? Georgia guy 18:21, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

Strong Keep - Well how about Polygon (computer graphics) ? The reason for creating this disambig was, I had a hard time finding that.

Well, isn't that simply an article talking about using polygons in computer graphics, or is it another use of the word "polygon"?? Georgia guy 18:29, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. EvilPhoenix
• Keep. A perfectly acceptable disambig page, and certainly no less useful than many others we have. The fact that somebody saw fit to create this shows it's useful to at least one person. Oh, and if you really don't think this page doesn't need to exist, then you could have just merged and redirected it back to Polygon and saved us all a VFD. sjorford →•← 21:41, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, useful. ✏ OvenFresh² 21:50, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. As per my minor edit to the article, mathematicians consider several things to be polygons which laypeople would not. "Simple polygon" represents what most people will be seeking when they look for polygon. ESkog 02:33, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep dab page. Megan1967 03:42, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, but desperately needs to be brought up to disambiguation page standards. Tag for expand/cleanup after VfD conclusion, if still necessary. (Why after? Because I don't think its fair to formally ask for assistance if you don't know you'll benefit from it.) --Unfocused 04:20, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, I'd certainly rather use a disambig page to look for Polygon (computer graphics) than dig for it in the article, even if it was linked from there. Kappa 05:52, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep I love polygons. Klonimus 20:30, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
