Picture request for folding space explanation

It would be nice to have such a picture, if anyone feels like drawing it? I looked for free images but didn't see anything particularly useful that and properly licenced :( _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:24, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I attempted to request 2 images of hyperspcae on flickr. 2001:4455:364:A800:758F:6113:6F67:3E87 (talk) 23:43, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Improved to Good Article status by Piotrus (talk) and TomapDoma (talk). Nominated by Piotrus (talk) at 11:08, 14 February 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Article has achieved Good Article status. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. All sources appear reliable. QPQ is done. I really like both hooks. I guess ALT1 is a bit more "hooky", but I do like the primary. Looks ready to go, unless you want to add or edit the hooks. Thriley (talk) 04:30, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
