Talk:N-flake

Terminology?
The only sources that I can find for the word "polyflake" are one other wikipedia page that links back here, and 40-50 apparent mirrors and derivatives of this Wikipedia article. It kinda looks as if the term might have been invented for the article, in which case it probably shouldn't be introduced in bold in the intro, in a way that suggests that it might be a preexisting technical term.

"Sierpinski n-gon" does seem to be a loose descriptive term that sometimes get bandied about occasionally, in the expectation that a fractal-literate readership will be able to guess what's meant.

 * This is probably something we want to clarify in the article, assuming we can find some reliable sources that give a clearer definition. 0x0077BE  [talk/contrib] 21:57, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
