Tau Ceti
editI reverted your edit; openexoplanet.org is not a WP:RS, it appears to be effectively a wiki. Such sites are flat prohibited as references due to the danger of WP:CIRCULAR. If there is confirmation of e (and the article I remember read a while back was somewhat worrisome), please find a usable reference. Tarl N. (discuss) 22:00, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- @Tarl N.: Oh ok, in a sci-news article i found this:
'In a new study, the same team confirmed the existence of tau Ceti e and f and detected two completely new planets, tau Ceti g and h' This is the article: http://www.sci-news.com/astronomy/tau-ceti-exoplanets-05117.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by CptSparrot (talk • contribs) 22:14, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- That's the article (or a version of it) that I recall was worrisome. Generally, confirmation is performed by a different group. Having the same group confirm itself is dubious, particularly when they admit having announced several planets which they now concede didn't exist. I'd say this was still unconfirmed.
- By the way, when writing on a talk page, please end your comments with a quadruple tilde ("~~~~"). Wikipedia will replace that with a string which gives your userid and timestamp, a necessary addition for later readers to keep track of who said what to whom and when. I've added a signature for you above (based on the edit history), so the above gets the right information. Regards, Tarl N. (discuss) 03:19, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
