Uranus[edit]

Previous FAC

This article may have some issues with length, but other than that I think it is now ready for FA consideration. Serendi^podous 09:25, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

*Comment - I was hasty in my support last time but it looks alot more polished. congrats. make sure there are no short paras like in the Planetary rings section - para 4 could go on para 1. There are some others. back later. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 10:12, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I took the liberty in combining a few paras - you'll note there was generally no clear division of subject material into two discrete sections so all read fine. Good work. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 12:45, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support It's comprehensive, reasonably well written and essentially FA quality. I only have minor concerns that I'm sure will be addressed:
- Could the article explain the term "mixing ratio"?
  Done Added a note. Ruslik 17:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- There is some overlinking. For example, "Upper atmosphere" has hydrocarbons, thermosphere and UV linked twice.
  Done. Ruslik 17:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Is this page British English standard (vapour, micrometres and centre) or American English standard (centered, barycenter)?
  Done. Ruslik 17:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- The first use of units (in the infobox) is not always wikilinked. Also W/m² is not wikilinked.
  Done While I wikilinked some units, I want to note that for the derivative units like W/m2 no specific wikilink is available. Ruslik 17:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  Surely W(atts) could be linked? Thanks. — RJH (talk) 19:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Some of the citations have inconsistent date formats. E.g. note #1 has 2006-07-13 while #3 has January 31, 2005. Also they are lacking wikilinks for full dates.
  Done. Ruslik 17:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. — RJH (talk) 19:20, 23 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
paragraph 3 last sentence gives wind speed in m/s. Elsewhere, a a km/hr unit is used for a storm. Same unit of measure should be used in all instances. What is the normal metric unit for winds? Hmains 02:24, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I changed km/h to m/s. Ruslik 06:42, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support deserves the FA. Now only Neptune is the only planet to go! igordebraga ≠ 18:24, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
