Talk:High-dimensional space

What's the best way to proceed?
I see that in the past there were high dimensional space & N-dimensional space pages that just got merged into 'Dimensions'

However the redirects there don't necessarily mention the context of interest from where the links are. (e.g. "additional dimensions" starts talking about physics unifying force string theory etc straight away, but I'm getting there from the contexts of 'word2vec', clustering, machine learning uses, where I'm interested in mathematical methods, i've dealt with a lot of linear algebra in 3D etc and its interesting to see the extention.)

Consider the new hovercards feature where you get a nice dropbox: imagine if you always have a summary of the information most relevant to the context right there .. wouldn't that be nicer? Also consider the effect for translation (imagine if a non-native speaker has the ability to get hover cards of smaller contextual articles in their language of choice)

I get the impression these pages are considered extraneous, but I would argue that multiple terms bring a different angle on the same ideas, and articles can be made clearer by giving additional context. These pages can always point back to 'major' pages holding the most detailed information.

vs N-dimensional space the contrast is: N dimensional can mean 1,2,3. High dimensional means more than 3 (or 4?)

I also see implication that not all 'spaces' are *vector* spaces. (non topological/non-euclidean), does that need clarifying?

I am finding this tension regularly in wikipedia.. articles that ended up getting merged/deleted vs a want for  specific,concise,direct links

EDIT: I think it would be inconvenient if this article was actually tagged as disambiguation, because its something you often want to point at. (and you get warnings when that happens). the idea is to describe in one place everything common to 'high dimensional spaces'. How they work, what you can and can't do with them, why they appear etc.
