Delete As far as I can tell, this article describes original research by Bowers that has never appeared in print. I do think that this is worthwhile mathematical research performed by trained mathematicians, but I don't see that it fits the mission and policies of Wikipedia. Bowers' web page is an appropriate place to share this research with the world (and by setting up their own installation of mediawiki, the authors could transfer these page to UniformPolytopeWiki without much difficulty).
Here is my assessment of the literature. I was unable to find Bowers' name on mathscinet. I was able to find some papers by Norman in the 1960s on uniform polytopes. There is a vague promise at http://hometown.aol.com/polycell/uniform.html that a book by Norman on uniform polytopes will be published by Cambridge press, but Google returns no other information on the book. There is no indication that the terminology here will appear in the book. That page claims it is currently “the only place in the world where you can find this information!” which supports the claim that the work on uniform polytope classification falls into the wikipedia original research category.

A bit of digging using search term Jonathan Bowers polyhedra finds a host of links some of which include
Delete per WP:OR and WP:V (cf CMummert and Dpbsmith's comments). Keep votes do not attempt to refute that the article violates these policies. --C S (Talk) 10:08, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
