Congratulations!
Congratulations! With a couple of weeks of work, I have gotten this article promoted to Featured Status, as seen here. Universe=atom 11:39, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Atmospheres of giant planets
The data in the infobox relating to the atmosphere (surface temperature, pressure, atmospheric composition) are currently unreferenced and vague. For example, what depth are we talking about here anyway? this NASA fact sheet appears to have good data, and, best of all, similar data are probably consistently given in the related data sheets for the other giant planets. I suggest that we should amend the current unreferenced atmospheric data for all the giant planets according to these data sheets. Deuar 18:23, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Archive Created
I've taken the liberty of creating an archive of the old discusssions, as this page was getting a bit lengthy. I don't believe that there were any active discussions in the material that I archived, but if there was, please accept my apologies and feel free to revive it. Thanks! -Sarfa 21:16, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Imperial values of measurements
I recently removed imperial units from the infobox and various places in the Saturn article because this is a scientific article and imperial units are not used or recommended. Deuar reverted my edit and I wish to contest that.
Having miles in the infobox is cluttering and useless. Astronomical Units (AU) are useful and provide a sense of scale as well as being used by astronomers. The mile values are so big as to provide no sense of scale apart from "big". And if someone needed an exact figure they would use the km value in any calculations. Under MOSNUM Scientific articles are recommended to be SI. I propose these values are useless and cluttering and that they be removed.
I'd be interested in others' feedback. Jim77742 08:04, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- Deuar probably reinstated them because they are present in all other planetary articles. However I think the solution is to remove them from all pages.Ruslik 09:05, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, exactly, I'm all for getting rid of them just that it looked like they were being removed from one or two random planets. Lets remove them from all the planet and dwarf planet infoboxes, however, we should also be prepared for loud protests, especially once Earth is touched. Deuar 10:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
I'm glad you agree. I've actually been working backwards from Pluto and have got to Saturn and this was the first issue. I shall keep going... Jim77742 13:18, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'd support removing them... it's a personal bias, I'll admit, given that I use the metric system, but I also agree with the guideline and the idea of reducing the extra detail in the infobox. (It's too bad there isn't a Misplaced Pages "unit preference" coding option - as with dates - as that would help address the concerns of non-SI users.) --Ckatzspy 16:58, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
