SpaceReference

[edit]

Just letting you know, SpaceReference isn't a reliable source. Nrco0e (talkcontribs) 19:59, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oh. Does it have a history of being inaccurate? JodyRider123 (talk) 20:37, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
I don't know about inaccurate, but it pretty much shows the same data as JPL and MPC (the website explicitly says it uses those two sources) and doesn't give any unique info (other than trivial comparisons like "size of West Virginia", which is, you know, not that useful). I don't know how often it updates, all I know is that it's not a website that experts use.
Unlike JPL, it doesn't give specific sources for diameter and albedo values. And for minor planets where diameter/albedo values aren't listed in databases (for example 2014 UZ224), it gives a range of diameter values without stating what the assume albedo range is. I wouldn't cite SpaceReference as a source since it's just a compilation of primary sources (without linking to them annoyingly), but I think it would okay to include in the External Links section.

TNO images

[edit]

Please stop changing the images of TNOs without explanation or asking others. If they're used for a long time, there's a reason for that. Some of your replacement images are inaccurate, like the S/2015 (136472) 1 gif. Nrco0e (talkcontribs) 18:56, 1 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
