315:), but i'm a bit wary about the cited reference in the article as Hilbert's book doesn't seem to use the term "Dehn plane". I find it neither in my German nor in my English copsy of the book. Moreover Hilbert's original book (without later extension) has less than 100 pages, so the given page 129 looks kinda fishy.--
392:
Well I agree that your first example has no neologism issues, but that's because you've picked purely descriptive article name rather defining a new term/name. The analog approach here would be something like "How Dehn constructed a non-Legendrean geometry". But if instead of a descriptive title you

Hilbert (given as a ref.) goes on for several pages about Dehn's geometry and that should establish notability. WP criteria don't specify that the primary source has to be published, only that a reliable secondary source exists. The books search turns up a precedent for the name as well, but this is

in an exercise. However, most of the material in the article is apparently not covered in
Hilbert so additional sources need to be found to support the content of the article. Perhaps a more inclusive subject title such as "Nonarchimedean geometry" can be found, but without the neologism.--
347:
well there's notability for both the content/subject matter itself and the name for it. We don't want to push "neologisms". If that plane is (almost) nowhere called Dehn plane, we shouldn't have an article under that name (implicating that it is a common/established term). In such a cse
502:. Dehn's work is also cited in Roger Hartshorne: Geometry: Euclid and Beyond (2000), Springer. Since I can't view the full text of Rucker's book, I speculate that he may just have found a catchier way of expounding Dehn's original paper from 1900 in the Mathematische Annalen,

I am beginning to think that the page should be renamed then. It seems that the method is notable enough, though not named as the page title currently suggests. Perhaps we could rename to "Dehn geometery", "Dehn planar geometery" or "Dehn non-Legendrean geometery".

Hilbert's book (in English) should show the pagination correct; the full reference should be pp. 127-130. (Hilbert does not call it "Dehn plane"; but it is a model for the axioms of plane geometry less parallels.)

could be up to editor discretion. Make it depend on whether anyone has time to expound Dehn's non-Legendrean geometry at proper length. I think notability is clearly met. See also this
