I would like to rename this and other articles so that all of the articles describing the seven crystal systems are named the same way. For example, I would like to rename this article Orthorhombic crystal system. That way it woun't be confued with the general gemetric shape. Any objections? O. Prytz 17:40, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
When we describe a base centered orthorhombic system, how is the base defined? I think that part needs to be added. Because there are 3 different lattice parameters, how to decide the base? Not only that, each page on each Bravais Lattices doesnt contain enough of the properties, of the crystal, like 1)No of atoms contained. 2)Co-ordination number. 3)Packing fraction.
The # of atoms contained and the packing fraction depend on the actual molecule in the crystal; they are not properties of the lattice structure itself.

I've been looking all over and I can't figure out what the orthorhombic system has to do with a rhombus, as all the faces are rectangles. The article could do well to contain such origin information. Nicknicknickandnick ( talk) 19:59, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
Could the figure showing the primitive lattice be changes so it doesn't look so much like a cube? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.156.157.1 ( talk) 16:19, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
It seems that three-dimensional pictures of cells are incorrect. In the “Right rhombic prism unit cell” row, the first picture and the second one seems to be misplaced, so does the third one and the fourth one. I can’t confirm, though. -- Ný(rönn)-Holtredéþch-Deskrúð / Nyholtredehn Discussion! 12:21, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
