Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your constructive edits on astronomical topics. -- Coneslayer (talk) 15:04, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I hope I'm posting this to the correct place. Regarding your response on my thread in the Quasar discussion page; Ok, but that's my whole point. The "size" of the black hole is it's (singular) Schwarzschild Radius. Unless I'm really retarded or something, it's my understanding that an object can't have more than one Schwarzschild Radius. The term 10-10,000 Radii for one object is meaningless. Right??? 24.18.213.116 (talk) 05:32, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

I've replied at talk:Quasar. - Parejkoj (talk) 14:58, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your help with clarifying this matter. I've come up with a wording you might agree with on the quasar discussion page. 24.18.213.116 (talk) 21:12, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

THANK YOU for your assistance! 24.18.213.116 (talk) 03:25, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Regarding Orphadeus

He's at his last straw with me. I've only seen in him an inability to understand cooperation and basic research principles. If he was any help to the site I'd consider going to WP:RFC/U, but I'm about ready to just go to the administrators the next time he bucks consensus, deliberately introduces incorrect info, etc. Thoughts? Ian.thomson (talk) 19:35, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Go for it. I'll back you up. Some slight amount of his/her edits might be useful, but they are so full of inaccuracies that I don't think it's worth it. I'm not that familiar with the various wikipedia procedures for dealing with such things, so if you want to take the lead there, please do. - Parejkoj (talk) 22:32, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

...And he's just camping on the talk pages. After your's and my final speeches, with 2/0 apparently giving up on him as well, once Modest Genius learns he's not worth bothering he may quit. Or he may start introducing bad content into the articles again, and we can get on him. Ian.thomson (talk) 18:28, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Astrology in astronomy articles

I want to bring to your attention this development: [1]. They are planning to bring astrology portal template tags to many more articles about stars and supernovae, apparently thinking that this brings these articles under the scope of astrology, which then sets the stage for them to add sizeable astrology sections and links. You may also want to have a look at this WP article: Robert_Currey. He didn't make it a secret that he created his own biography page on WP, but instead of bringing it to WP standards he is more interested in telling us how to improve astronomy articles. I think we should notify the broader Wikiproject Astronomy, rather than just the astronomical objects. What do you think? MakeSense64 (talk) 05:34, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Good idea: Done! Also, I think that Richard Currey page should be posted to WP:AfD, as it's clearly self-promotion. - Parejkoj (talk) 18:48, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

OK. Let's see if anybody comes out of vacation on WP:AST.

I have been cleaning up and tagging a lot of astrology articles, and a lot of them are in terrible condition. Robert_Currey is not even the worst case I have seen.

By the way, User:Zachariel has submitted the Algol article to the NPOV noticeboard. He notified me on my Talk page and I answered that he should notify all involved editors. Doesn't look like he has picked up on it, so here is the link: [2]

It looks like WP:BAITING to me. MakeSense64 (talk) 10:47, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Lambda-CDM model pie chart

Would you recommend removing the pie chart for now? It's a useful graphic but inconsistent with the article and therefore may confuse the reader. No registered users have commented on this on the discussion page (see Talk:Lambda-CDM_model#Pie_Chart), which is why I'm bugging you. :)

Maybe you (or someone expert in the field) could encourage the author to correct the chart. Cheers, Rico402 (talk) 20:38, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

I've posted to Talk:Lambda-CDM_model#Pie_Chart. I'm not volunteering to make a new pie chart, but one should probably be made... - Parejkoj (talk) 19:06, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

I've left a message on the author's Talk page requesting he consider correcting the chart. It's probably best not to remove it; it's a useful and informative graphic, and the inconsistencies with the text are readily apparent (but those with the table perhaps less so).

Tired light

Thanks for your help in Tired light. I added the ScienceNow citation you found to the end of the article. 128.59.169.46 (talk) 15:44, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
