- Are you insane? I was obvious what was being done. You even deleted the complete explanation of what was going on and the consensus to get away with what you did. There was nothing deleted. There is a horrible amound of redundant talk distributed all over. This was only a sort. I will spend another full day if I have to to restructure the 57+ plus entries into something more coherent and less contractictory and redundant. Nothing has been or will be deleted, I was in the middle of this and it took me all day and I was almost done. You have no idea. I swear. - 04:54, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Astronomical formulae
If I were you, I would use sourced values whenever possible. Very simple calculations such as orbital periods based on semimajor axes in the Solar System should be OK. If you're going to rearrange astronomical formulae, you should know exactly what you're doing.
I have no doubt that BlueEarth's contributions are honest, but he is clearly lacking the knowledge needed (I confess, I too have been guilty for that sometimes myself...). The calculations he has done have been either pure speculation or just nonsensical. Worse, he kept readding them. Good-willing, but clueless editors are one reason why haven't been as active as before. I'm sad to hear that Dr. Submillimeter has gone, but it is also very worrying that he's just one in a long list of professional contributors who have got enough.--— JyriL 14:29, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
