Image[edit]
Would we not want an image that actually displays the Great Red Spot clearly? 2A02:C7C:DD25:6900:D9D2:CD36:939F:52DA (talk) 23:56, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Displaying iconic features is not necessarily a priority for infobox images. ArkHyena (talk) 23:59, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- That’s exactly what the image is doing, albeit very poorly. 2A02:C7C:DD25:6900:D8BD:274F:37C2:20CE (talk) 18:34, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Jupiter diameter[edit]
several other credible websites list Jupiter diameter as 142984 km, far more than this Wikipedia artlcal 152.117.114.38 (talk) 00:46, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- What you have listed there is the equatorial diameter. Divide that by two to get 71,492 km, the equatorial radius, which is the amount listed in the article. Praemonitus (talk) 04:39, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- you are correct; the small value that I had seen was in one of the early paragraphs, but I can't find it now. Should have taken a screen shot... 152.117.114.38 (talk) 22:05, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
