This really looks like a disambiguation page to me. Perhaps it should be tagged as such. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 03:08, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
It seems odd for this page not to mention the primary meaning of connexion, which is an alternative spelling of "connection". In fact, it is strictly the more etymologically correct spelling since it is derived from the Latin connexio. Whilst "connection" has become the more common spelling (presumably by erroneously copying the spelling of other words that sound the same and that do not have an -xio origin), we should not compound the error by not mentioning it at all. -- Bermicourt ( talk) 13:46, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
I realise this was touched upon in the above discussion and on the talk page for discussion but would it be merging with connection? Inflection/inflexion, reflection/reflection etc. It doesn't seem to be considered officially obsolete or archaic according to most searches (and on an unrelated note, Microsoft Word) so considering it shares the same definition as connection and how some of the words i.e. connexionalism share an opposite spelling of connectionalism maybe it should be merged. 151.224.254.144 ( talk) 21:39, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
