Alternative designation
[edit]The EPE link gives 2MASS J00153675-1156172 (without the b) as an alias for the star, any references for the usage of "2MASS J00153675-1156172b" for the planet? Icalanise (talk) 15:21, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
- Nope. A somewhat OR assumption by me, I suppose. :P --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:02, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

7. Overall assessment. | Glad to pass this GA nom. |
- 1a: Which is better? "Jupiter-size planet" or "Jupiter-sized planet"? ("You want me to Jupiter-size that for just thirty-five cents more?)
- Haha. XD All fixed. --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:01, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 1a: In the lede, the orbital period sentence seem to split up a couple of sentences about the planets discovery. Would in be better elsewhere in the lede?
- I've done plenty of re-arranging and a small add. How does it look? --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:12, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 1a: "searched the night sky for transits" is a bit lingo-ish. It's better to explain, which will probably involve splitting the sentence.
- All set to go. --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:12, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 1a: "This notice came about" is a little odd. "This was discovered", maybe?
- "This was discovered" didn't seem to fit quite right, so I tried something different. How does it look? --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:01, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 1a: I don't know what "the most honest solution" means.
- I gave a clarification a shot. How does it look? --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 1b: See Talk:WASP-44/GA1 for discussion about the navbox.
- 1b: The category "Hot Jupiters" is in the category "Gas Giants". Is there some reason this article should have both categories? If not, just keep the "Hot Jupiters" one. Similarly, should a planet be in the "Cetus constellation" category?
- Well, it is in the Cetus constellation, so I'd say it should. I'll nix the Gas giant category momentarily.
- 2b: There's an accuracy tag in the "Other designations" section of the infobox, and discussion on the talk page about it.
- All dealt with. --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- 6b: You know me -- I like pictures. They're pretty.
- And, in this case, big and metal and shiny also! :D --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, that's the coolest one yet, for real. – Quadell (talk) 03:04, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
