should not create/define new names/terms but just use names/terms already existing in literature (note the
Russian sources use theorem not lemma). You cannot use a foreign language source as a source for an English name/term unless that foreign languahe source actually uses an English term itself. If no English term exist yet, then normally the foreign language term has to be used (or at best in some cases a literal translation of it).

Overall it seems like this theorem has been known for a long time (see
Johnson 1929, and probably since the 19th century), but doesn't seem to have a well established name outside the Russian problem solving community. Trillium / trident is a more evocative image, but "incenter–excenter" seems more
181:
There doesn't seem to be a common name for this in
English. I would prefer "incenter–excenter lemma" (used by Chen and a few others since) to "trillium theorem" because the former is more descriptive. The names "trident lemma" and "trillium theorem" both come from Russian and neither seems to be in
355:
Do you have any
Russian sources about 'теорема трилистника' or 'лемма о трезубце' from peer-reviewed or published sources? Are there any Russian speakers here with insights into the origin of the trillium and/or trident names? The links there so far look to me like self-published PDFs, but I don't
216:
There is reason, why lead back then settled for this maybe slightly awkward and less compact version (exactly because no common name seemed to exist inEnglish back then). Creating "good" names for something not having a name in
English literature (yet) is policy violation of sorts as WP/WP authors
420:
Since we have now an
English source with that name in the article, I see no problem with that anymore. As far as the Russian sources are concerned since Stannic is probably not available anymore, maybe you can ask another russian speaking math editor, there should be some around still at the

I'd love to have links to
Russian textbooks, published monographs, or journal papers. All the sources I can easily find as a non-Russian speaker (I didn't look especially hard though) are self-published PDFs (arxiv or elsewhere), forum posts, and the

Now if newer sources use a different name or have established an
English name for it, then article can be moved to that new name. However in that case a source for than (new) English name should be provided and I can't find Chen(?) under the current

Euclidean geometry problems, and can be used to reconstruct a triangle starting from one vertex, the incenter, and the

As far as the notability is concerned, back when the article was showed up, several math editors (including myself) looked at it and decided back then it is worth keeping/notable enough based on the

Fine with me but please keep the new source(s) for the English name in the lead. In fact now (contrary to 2016) that proper English sources exist, the Russian sources actually might be dropped completely.

I undid the move as no source with the supposedly more commmon name was provided and back when the article was created no (common) name was known to the involved authors (or given in the sources iirc).--
