Editing Talk:Johnson solid (section)

==Exclusion of uniform polyhedra==
In the sentence "Although there is no restriction that any given regular polygon cannot be a face of a Johnson solid, some authors require that Johnson solids are not uniform." I don't understand what "Although there is no restriction that any given regular polygon cannot be a face of a Johnson solid" is trying to say that would not already be expected.  Can someone explain this to me?  Should we just remove that part of the sentence and simplify it to "Some authors exclude uniform polyhedra from the class of Johnson solids."?

:yes, I agree it's not a great sentence. I like your suggestion, except I'd also cut the use of weasel terms like "some authors". So we either identify these authors, or cut everything:
:> A Johnson solid is a strictly convex polyhedron whose faces are all regular polygons, excluding the Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, prisms, and antiprisms. [[User:Introscopia|Introscopia]] ([[User talk:Introscopia|talk]]) 19:12, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

::I looked at some of the citations already in the article, and some of them do exclude uniform polyhedra, so I implemented your first suggestion to cite them in the relevant place. [[User:Ebony Jackson|Ebony Jackson]] ([[User talk:Ebony Jackson|talk]]) 00:04, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
