Reliance upon SIMBAD[edit]

The SIMBAD database is subject to change over time, which hinders verifiability. Instead, the original sources for the listed data should be cited directly. Praemonitus (talk) 20:36, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've attempted to address this. Praemonitus (talk) 22:18, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Multi-star System?[edit]

The introductory text reads that Gliese 809 formis the primary component of a multi-star system, but I see no mention of other members of the binary system in the article or on the table. Is the reader to use the link to ACRINS to obtain that info instead? Using the data link in the article brings up the ACRINS record for CNS designation: Gl 809, HD: 199305. But, I'm not seeing any reference to other members in a proposed multi-star system on either ACRINS or Simbad. Granted, both sources are sometimes unintuitive when it comes to finding associated binary members, but Wikipedia usually includes the secondary members within its articles about binary stars in a more intuitive (i.e., more easily understood by the easily confused folks like me). Right now, it's a mystery (unless I'mjust overlooking something obvious in the article): is Gl 809 part of a binary or not? Tesseract501 (talk) 01:23, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
