Talk:Tetragonal disphenoid honeycomb

Asking about unclear and possibly incorrect description of edges

"Four edges have 6 cells, and 2 edges have 4 cells."

What does "cells" mean here?

The diagram suggests that edge lengths are in a 6:4 proportion but the actual proportion is sqrt(3) : 2.

A cell, as said in the first paragraph, is one of the constituent irregular tetrahedra. A green (red) edge corresponds to a hexagon (square) of the dual tiling, and is thus surrounded by six (four) cells corresponding to the six (four) vertices of that face. These are the numbers in the diagram, not lengths. (The diagram could use a label to that effect.) —Tamfang (talk) 05:46, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks. I like the change you made to the article; today's version is more clear. Tom239 (talk) 18:00, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
