define a coordinate system that makes the plane be in the 'right' orientation), the rotation modifies two coordinates (the ones which define the plane) of every point of the rotating object. So, in 2D we have only one possible rotation: in the XoY plane. In 3D the plane on which the rotation happens 'takes' two of the three coordinates of every point, which creates an illusion of a rotation around an axis. In 4D every plane has another plane completely orthogonal to it, so any 4D object can perform two independent rotations at once. This pattern continues, and generally in a (2*n)-dimensional space an object can perform n independent rotations which may leave only one fixed point, and in a (2*n + 1)-dimensional space it can also perform n independent rotations, but always leaving at least a whole axis (and thus one coordinate of every point) fixed. I'm neither a mathematician nor an native English speaker, but I hope you get what I mean.

I've started on this, moving the relativity sub-section as it's an example/application of rotations in 4D, at the same time rewriting so it more closely relates to the rest of the article, has more links and a good reference. This shortens and so simplifies what needs to be done in the last section,

I think there is a lot of writing to be done to satisfactorily introduce and define rotations in noneuclidean geometries before worrying about detailed terms. For example, I don't expect that point-fixing motions will even form a group in general noneuclidean geometries. Trying to stretch the term
441:
The 3D rotation is also around a point. It so turns out though, that any 3D rotation is not only around a point, but around an entire axis. In 4D one can again find rotations which leave just one point fixed, no more. But of course, you can always find 4D rotations which leave an entire axis fixed,
299:
I also believe that "coordinate rotation" redirecting to "rotation" is misleading. Point in case: the matrix algebra and subsequent equations for "x'" and "y'" describe the rotation of a point in a fixed coordinate system. The algebra is different for a coordinate rotation and the resulting x' and

p.198 "A limiting case of rotation is where the two lines of reflection do not meet in the half plane, but have a common end P on the boundary R∪{∞} at infinity. Here P is a fixed point, each non-Euclidean line ending at P is moved to another line ending at P, and each curve perpendicular to all
565:
In section it is said "The degrees of freedom of a rotation matrix is always less than the dimension. A rotation matrix in dimension 2 has only one degree of freedom. Given an angle of rotation the whole matrix is defined. A rotation matrix in dimension 3 has three degrees of freedom." which
456:
When it comes to higher dimensions, it might be easier to understand rotations to happen not 'around' points, axes, planes, whatever, but 'in' a plane. Every rotation has a plane in which it happens. If the said plane is defined by two axes of the coordinate system we use (or, alternatively, we
514:
Just overhauled the 2D section. Not massively, more lots of little tweaks so it reads better and has more information and connections while taking no more space. I think it makes sense to fix the rest of the article before doing the last section as it sort of follows from what goes before it.
479:
I've added a section on fourth dimensional rotations. It could probably do with some expansion and maybe a few more links, but it covers the main points I hope. I think the last section most needs tidying up now, to better focus on e.g. rotations in five and higher dimensions.

things — can be defined and used quite well without coordinates, thank you very much. A rotation is a geometric idea, a direct isometry with a fixed point. Coordinates are handy in applications, but there is no excuse for letting them dominate the name of the article.
1493:"rotation" to these contexts in a notable fashion may be tricky. My inclination would be to limit it to generalizations using the respective orthogonal groups, and focus on details of rotations in articles more specifically aimed at the respective geometries. — 327:), thinking co-ordinate rotation could be a section on a larger page about mathematical rotations, but didn't really get merged, just redirected. I thought "coordinate rotation" was just an alternate way to describe a rotation, e.g. in computer graphics 609:
dimensions is the number of distinct pairs of coordinate axes, since every rotation can be derived as a product of principal rotations, each of which takes place in the plane defined by a pair of coordinate axes. The degrees of freedom is therefore

in hyperbolic space, like translation in Euclidean space, except the center of rotation is at a specific infinity point (seen on the ideal sphere of a Poincare disk projection). I've not seen this term elsewhere and have no other names for it.

We could do with some references for this section. I had a look but most of my books are on more advanced topics - this is all maths I learned at high school. At least the added wikilinks make it easier for readers to dig deeper if they want.
542:
so there's a short history there but nothing very interesting, and if I'd not been so distracted it could have been done in one go anyway. It's fairly light on maths, but it's got lots of links especially to main articles for more detail.

isometries in general position cease to be rotations is mention-worthy. The article was heavily biased towards rotations of vectors and didn’t present significant facts about rotations in the context of Euclidean group.

I'm probably not qualified to do the actual merge cause I'm not a mathmagician. And I prefer your version which (to borrow your phrase) replaced the crap with normal English explaining the basic math behind rotations.

Which statements are wrong for the affine case? For example, that in 2 dimensions any two rotation commute. Generally, such commutator is a translation, and is not identity unless rotations have the same centre.

I came here looking for an explanation to why mathematicians prefer to specify rotations RxR rather than Tx. R and T are matrices, x is a vector. I looked around at some related pages:
1407: 689: 821:
The article elucidates several important cases, but it says next to nothing about the mathematical framework where the word “rotation” makes some sense in general. Namely:
645: 1593: 741:(the former). Of course, an O group is a factor of affine transformations by a normal subgroup of translations, but… the article says nothing about the difference. 1537:
in particular. I vaguely remember the problem having to do with generalizing to arbitrary dimension, and involving the non-commutativity of matrix multiplication.
1608: 1085:
One can realize that, in the general position, it is a composition of a rotation with a translation along its axis, i.e. in appropriate Cartesian coordinates:

Therefore I propose to move the article where it belongs, to "Rotation (mathematics)", and redirect "Coordinate rotation" (and links here) to there. --

In geometry and linear algebra, a rotation is a transformation in a plane or in space that describes the motion of a rigid body around a fixed point.

Does anybody see here the word "vector"? I see only a hint to vector spaces through "linear algebra", and the word "fixed" is also ambiguous: either

It seems to me this little section could benefit by expansion, but for now I'm just noting this missing definition here while I look at sources.

The section that most needs some attention now is generalisations, though the 4D section could be expanded a little. --
