Fails WP:N. I found zero sources for "Schwarz–Goursat simplices", possibly WP:SYNTH. --Pontificalibus 06:53, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I can find no evidence that this is an established term. Nor is there evidence that the part beyond what we already cover in Schwarz triangle and Goursat tetrahedron has been discussed in any depth. If there is literature on the higher-dimensional generalizations that I'm not finding, it can go into a section of an existing article. I'm doubtful that there can be much interesting to say about those higher-dimensional cases, because past dimension 4 the classification of regular polytopes becomes pretty bland. This looks like a harmless bit of fun, but it's not Wikipedia's job to host a pet project or to promote terminology that the mathematicians haven't already adopted.
