[edit] Move to wiktionary?

This word is more commonly mentioned than used... Can this article possibly be any more than a stub? Or should it be moved to Wikitionary?

No, it should be kept in Wikipedia. It's an article and would not be suitable for Wiktionary. If it were moved to Wiktionary, it would most likely be moved back in the near future. So, I'd say, keep, in Wikipedia. Kamope · talk · contributions 13:03, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Names of polygons with more than 10,000 sides

Do you know of a name of any polygon with more than 10,000 sides?? User 66.245.30.47

My topology professor would define a circle as a polygon with infinite sides. By the way, I'm removing the comment someone wrote into the article.

Only geeks know this. but the Megagon has 1,000,000

[edit] Polygon category

Wikipedia's articles are currently being classified into categories. What category can the polygons go into?? 66.245.66.197 14:00, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Non-mathematical

I'm removing the statement about it appearing to be a circle if not zoomed far enough. First of all, "zoomed" is an extremely ambiguous word. But secondly, its altogether non-mathematical. It could even be calassified as an opinion. I would only see a statement of that typeapplied factually when considering manifolds, which can be factually shown to be falt at the local level. -- He Who Is[ Talk ] 22:52, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Hello!

[edit] Degrees

Each angle is 179.964?! 179.964 * 10000 = 1799640o? 1799640o is not 360o. i'm confused.

The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is (n-2)180, where n is the number of sides. 360o is the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral.OMG! It's Teh Pampas Cat! 16:51, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
The sum of the interior angles is 179.964 because there is 9998 triangles contcruted inside a Myriagon. Each triangle, when all angles of each side is sumed up, comes to 180. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Androo123 (talkcontribs) 19:21, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
