Result: Kept. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:59, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Honestly, pretty good but there's uncited statements and problems here being

• Theoretical Astronomy is a mess of section with possible uncited statements in there.
• Topics also studied by theoretical astrophysicists include Solar System formation and evolution; stellar dynamics and evolution; galaxy formation and evolution; magnetohydrodynamics; large-scale structure of matter in the universe; origin of cosmic rays; general relativity and physical cosmology, including string cosmology and astroparticle physics. (Not so sure about this one)
• The discipline is an overlap of astronomy and chemistry. The word "astrochemistry" may be applied to both the Solar System and the interstellar medium. The study of the abundance of elements and isotope ratios in Solar System objects, such as meteorites, is also called cosmochemistry, while the study of interstellar atoms and molecules and their interaction with radiation is sometimes called molecular astrophysics. The formation, atomic and chemical composition, evolution and fate of molecular gas clouds is of special interest, because it is from these clouds that solar systems form. Studies in this field contribute to the understanding of the formation of the Solar System, Earth's origin and geology, abiogenesis, and the origin of climate and oceans.
• The entire Interdisciplinary studies section.

and that seems to be it. There may be more problems but I haven't identified them yet. Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:40, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

Noting that the review was opened properly on March 14th, to avoid overloading editors, rather than on February 15th, as indicated by the signature date. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 01:40, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

It looks now like everything still tagged as uncited is big-picture stuff about the nature of the scientific process and things like that. If it can't be sourced, it can probably be cut or rewritten into something that can be. XOR'easter (talk) 15:30, 17 March 2023 (UTC)

XOR'easter, looks like a few {{cn}} tags are still remaining, but that's about it. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 12:35, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

The question now arises of whether we should just cut the still-uncited text; it's rather vague. XOR'easter (talk) 19:23, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

These edits address the remaining {{citation needed}} tags in a way that I'm happy with. XOR'easter (talk) 12:44, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
