Sep 16 at 19:14 comment added Eric Arnéo Vespira Kengne For me, a Cartan geometry is just a "natural and reasonable" deformation of a homogeneous space of Lie type ( that's, the quotient of a Lie group by a closed subgroup, whatever the algebraic structure of the Lie supergroup), the deformation being given by a Ehresmann connection on the supergroup, with vertical vector bundle, the right translations of the Lie algebra of the Lie subgroup.
May 9 at 10:30 comment added Ben McKay I think you are right: the Wikipedia authors are assuming that $G$ acts effectively on $G/H$. The existence and the uniqueness of the $H$-bundle giving rise to the $G/H$-bundle seems to me to be unclear.
