Splitting from Euclidean n-space
[edit]- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- There is no concensus to split the contents of Euclidean_n-space#Other_geometric_spaces to Geometric space. While there did appear to be support for the alternative proposal by Chatul, the lack of substantive discussion on that proposal by all participants of the discussion means there is also no consensus for it.

Is the present topic sufficiently notable to deserve its own article? It used to live buried in Euclidean_n-space#Other_geometric_spaces. fgnievinski (talk) 06:51, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. The only definition of a geometric space is to be a space in which one can do geometry. So, geometric space must be a redirect to geometry. I’ll revert the split, which could be restored only if there is a consensus for that. D.Lazard (talk) 15:22, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support: The topic is clearly articulated in Euclidean_n-space#Other_geometric_spaces. It can be sourced in several books.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] fgnievinski (talk) 03:16, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- both: the material in Euclidean_n-space#Other geometric spaces should be moved into Geometry, not into a separate article. However, perhaps it would be appropriate to have a Euclidean n space#Relation to other geometries covering the relations among affine, Euclidean and projective geometries. --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 14:10, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support alternative proposal by Chatul. Geometry could definitely use some of this material, and if this page discusses other geometric spaces, it should be in relation to its main topic of Euclidean space. Felix QW (talk) 19:51, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: This seems largely redundant with Space (mathematics). I don't think we benefit from making a new article out of it. –jacobolus (t) 01:58, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
