  • Support as nominator - I would like to add Sun (a featured article) and Moon (a good article nominee) to the Solar system topic. I think the logic of their inclusion is self-evident. --Arctic Gnome 18:18, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Conditional support. Sun should probably get its remaining [citation needed]s sourced. Moon looks good, though I'd like to see some more sources. Hurricanehink (talk) 20:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Sun is now fully sourced, and Moon's GA nomination is on hold while people look for sources. --Arctic Gnome 17:51, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
      • Oppose Enceladus, BTW. Otherwise, I'll give a full support, now. Hurricanehink (talk) 18:32, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support- they are, in fact, in the solar system, so they should be there. --PresN 21:33, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support - both are in good shape, and I agree they should be part of this topic. Tuf-Kat 08:16, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
  • NOTE - I've just added Enceladus (moon) to the supplementary nomination. Since it is a featured article, I assume that supporters of sun and moon will accept it, but if there are any objections I'll limit the nomination to sun and moon. I understand that allowing every planet's moons might make this topic too big one day, but when that day comes we can split this into sub-topics. For now, including one extra moon should be fine. --Arctic Gnome 20:53, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. I can't find a reason why they can't be included. Sijo Ripa 17:46, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support for adding the Sun and the Moon for the sake of completeness. Oppose adding Enceladus (moon). The Enceladus article (a featured article) does not belong in the Solar System featured topic. It belongs in a future featured topic dedicated to Saturn. Otherwise we will soon see some "mission creep."--Burzum 15:53, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • NOTE - I'm crossing out Enceladus unless several people specifically support it. This debate will go until 7 days after Enceladus was added (until December 25th). --Arctic Gnome 16:04, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Support adding Sun and Moon. Ideally, this should include all the known moons. Short of that it should contain all the planets or the Sun and all planets. I can see sneaking in Earth's moon as well due to it's greater significance, but rather than adding the rest of the moons piecemeal I'd suggest waiting until all of them can be included. No gaps. --CBD 13:40, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
    • We probably don't know all of the Moons in our Solar System at this point. I think we should be a little careful because this topic could easily grow larger than is manageable. I think the organization presented in Template:Solar System is a good guide to what should be in the Solar System Topic (and it gives a good guide for future subtopics such as Jovian moons or TNOs. Cheers.--Burzum 19:08, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: It's not totally clear which articles make up this topic when looking at the article. {{Solar System}} is used at the bottom and contains the articles that constitute this nomination but ordered differently and alongside other articles. This may lead to confusion. violet/riga (t) 11:09, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Promoted - Sun and Moon.
