Assessment: Hello all, and thank you for contributing to this article. I'm part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Golden ratio team, and I'm reviewing this page. I'm currently giving it a grade of Start on the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale and an importance of High on this importance scale. For information on improving this article, please visit the WikiProject Golden ratio Project Page. My reasoning is as follows: Not sufficiently referenced, needs significant expansion.

I have rewritten the article significantly in order to explain why phi^2 golden angles fit in a circle. In the process, I added a algebraic derivation of the golden angle(without knowing phi) as well as a tidbit about the golden angle showing up in nature. Superm401 | Talk 04:46, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Can anyone get an .svg showing the construction of the golden angle? That would make the concept clear immediately. (Nice proofs, Superm401.)  —Rafi Neal |T/C 02:06, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Good idea. I also changed the lead explanation to be hopefully more clear. Dicklyon 03:16, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
