I don't want to question Euclid, but do we really want to have different definitions for strait line and line? --Cynic 01:08, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Ultimately yes, so we can distinguish between a line that's straight and non-straight. Whether we put them on the same page in subsections we may need to make a decision on, of course. --prime mover (talk) 11:40, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Further to this: I have added straight line and line segment as subsections of the page I just wrote for line.

Hope this is good. I'm going to do a bit more work on a few more of his definitions and then I'll pass geometry back to you as you're making a better job of it than I ever could. --prime mover (talk) 12:46, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
