Star article criteria

I notice there are a number of star articles at WP:GAN, and creating these articles seems to be an area of interest for you. I was wondering what your philosophy is for deciding whether a star is notable enough for an article. (I'll be looking for your answer on this page.) Jc3s5h (talk) 21:08, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It all comes down to the notability guideline. When I look at the general notability one, it seems to fulfill many of its requirements. The stars are significantly covered in its cited sources, these sources are credible, and are not "self-published" (generally noted either in refereed papers and in online encyclopediae that are maintained by professional astronomers that have read up on the topic). The only two points of question that I see are that of having secondary sources and of the "presumed" guideline, as the former is covered substantially by tertiary sources, and that editors have not established a consensus on whether such articles belong on Wikipedia or not. In a way, I've taken a leap of faith in creating these articles with the hope that editors may see these as valuable additions to the encyclopedia, and not something to be removed. It is ultimately not a matter of my philosophy, but the philosophy of the community as a whole. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 00:10, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think everyone would agree that the more famous stars, and stars that are unusual in some way, should have articles. I imagine many editors would not be in favor of including every star that is listed in any star catalog. Appearing in refereed papers seems like a promising guide; appearing in online astronomy encyclopedias might be ok as long as the encyclopedia isn't just a reformatted star catalog.

Good Article promotion

	Congratulations!
	Thanks for all the work you did in making WASP-43 a certified "Good Article"! Your work is much appreciated. In the spirit of celebration, you may wish to review one of the Good Article nominees that someone else nominated, as there is currently a backlog, and any help is appreciated. All the best, – Quadell ^(talk)

Your GA nomination of HD 154672 b

Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I am glad to be reviewing the article HD 154672 b you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. – Quadell ^(talk) 18:29, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, this review is now on-hold, waiting for questions to be answered and a few issues to be dealt with. – Quadell ^(talk) 20:12, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It passed! Well done, and it was good working with you. All the best, – Quadell ^(talk) 13:48, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:HD 154672 b orbit.png

A tag has been placed on File:HD 154672 b orbit.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ww2censor (talk) 04:41, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of MOA-2009-BLG-387L

The article MOA-2009-BLG-387L you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:MOA-2009-BLG-387L for things which need to be addressed. – Quadell ^(talk) 20:26, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I am worried about accurateness of using the name Natiso in the Aquileia article, of which, as I understand, you are an admin. Apparently, there is a river called Natisone (on the border of Slovenia and Italy) and there is an entirely different river Natissa, which flows past the ancient Aquileia site. Am I wrong? Respectfully, Romanus451.Romanus451 (talk) 16:56, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Starstriker, just one addition: the name Natissa is ancient, too - it is mentioned by Jordanes (Getica 219), who lived in the 6th century CE. Thanks for your care!Romanus451 (talk) 15:17, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I refer of course to Jordanes and his Getica. You may need this link: http://people.ucalgary.ca/~vandersp/Courses/texts/jordgeti.html#XLII Thanks again! Romanus451 (talk) 15:25, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Blucher review

Well, I think one of the biggest things is having a concrete goal you're working to. This was my long term project since May 2007, and I just finished it this summer. A list like this helped to keep me focused, because seeing the little red and orange boxes turn green and blue made me want to finish more of them. And to be honest, you do need breaks from doing the same things over and over. Sometimes, you have to branch out and edit articles on various things outside your normal area to keep things fresh. For me, this just meant ships from other navies :) Sometimes those breaks come in the form of more or less total breaks from Wikipedia in general. For me, I knew that if I took a week or two away from editing, I'd come back when I was ready and get work done. Parsecboy (talk) 11:55, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for all of that. This is a lesson that I really do need practice applying, and Wikipedia might just be the perfect place to start. I think I'll give the list a try, and perhaps the break too once the remainder of my own articles are reviewed. It feels like I could really use one. :) --Starstriker7^(Talk) 00:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

HAT-P-33b

I signed up to review HAT-P-33b, so I'll get on that soon. It looks like you're staying one step ahead of me. – Quadell ^(talk) 20:38, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Glad you noticed. XD Thanks for taking on this review. You make my Wikipedia life go, like, ten thousand times faster. :P --Starstriker7^(Talk) 00:25, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Light speed, Mr. Sulu. (It's now on hold, by the way.) – Quadell ^(talk) 15:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GA Noms

I have just provided a GA review of WASP-24, and it did not pass. I appreciate your contributions to exoplanet articles, but I am concerned that you are nominating these WASP and Kepler articles prematurely for GA status. Please see my comments in the GA review for details about how these articles can be improved generally. My recommendation is to withdraw the GA nominations until they meet the Good Article Criteria. GA reviews are not for peer review or to help give you advice on how to turn start-class articles into GAs. If the related WASP and Kepler article nominations are not withdrawn, I will be likely failing their nominations. These can all be nominated in the future, however. Good luck! AstroCog (talk) 18:05, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you want me to look at them in the future, just send me a message on my talk page. I don't mind giving feedback or helping track down a source...if I have time ;-) AstroCog (talk) 22:32, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stealing this header since it's applicable. I was about to review WASP-24b for GA, but I saw that you withdrew the nomination today. If you still want to withdraw it, that's fine, but I'll be glad to run it over and offer any help you need. I'm a believer in holding GA reviews for a while to address problems, and don't mind working with editors on articles that might be 100% there yet. If you are withdrawing the noms, though, just drop me a line any time you stick them back up and I'll try to review some of them promptly for you. GRAPPLE X 23:08, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Katniss at PR

I'm glad you want to work on the article...I sort of thought it had fallen into the hands of the IPs. I did create the article and will love to make a few comments on the PR, but it may also be useful to get someone who knows nothing about the character. I suggest posting a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fictional characters. Glimmer721 ^talk 17:56, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
