[edit] Orcus sat
Could you please check the magnitude difference for Orcus sat in the original IAUC? It appears unusually big compared to the primary. I’ve used a secondary source 90482 Orcus#Satellite. Thanks! Eurocommuter 11:41, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image for portal spaceflight box
Hi! Thanks for your help while I was struggling with the images not appearing properly in the portal spaceflight box. Another person thought to ask about the trouble Wikipedia:Village_pump (assistance)#image in a portal box. The answer given there points to a reasonable work-around, which I'm going to try. If the image still doesn't show up correctly ... I'm gonna' scream! (sdsds - talk) 03:22, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Comet tails animation.gif
I've removed the speedy deletion tag from this image, as it does not seem to meet any of the criteria for speedy deletion. Lack of accuracy is not a valid reason. I suggest you take it to Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion instead. – Tivedshambo (talk) 16:08, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] You idiot.
You should not have such an offensive Userbox on your stupid userpage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex1996Ne (talk • contribs) 01:07, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Rigel apparent magnitude
Hello,
I see that on Rigel, you changed the apparent magnitude with comment: visual magnitude from Hipparcos Catalogue, the most precise photometric catalogue.
However, the citation on apparent magnitude still points to Simbad. Please provide a replacement inline citation for your new source of 0.18 over the simbad 0.12 value. Also, can you give a cite which supports Hipporcos being more accurate than Simbad?
Thanks.
-William
- The Hipparcos Catalogue is astrometric and photometric catalogue based on observations of satellite Hipparcos. Simbad is astronomical database which include information from many catalogs, including Hipparcos. Value 0.12 is taken from Yale Bright Star Catalogue version 5 (BSC5). But in Hipparcos catalogue there is 0.18 value. Both catalogs may be accessed from Simbad/VizieR. It is considered that Hipparcos is most precise in both photometry and astrometry, see for example Astrometric and photometric catalogs recommended by USNO. See also Comparison of recommended astrometric and photometric star catalogues. — Chesnok (talk) 08:08, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
