H II region[edit]

FAR commentary[edit]

Listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Astronomy/Article alerts; main editor vanished

This article has very fiew citation and is not so complete; some sections need an improvement, expecially about the origin. Furthermore, a concise explanation of the late stages of the regions is needed. --Roberto Segnali all'Indiano 10:41, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I translated this article to spanish wikipedia and made it a good article there, the spanish one is a little bit larger and referenced, so it would be a good source to make this one better. Locos ~ epraix Beaste~praix 03:38, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FARC commentary[edit]

Suggested FA criteria concern is citations. Also note the recent change to WP:WIAFA (1c) requiring "high-quality" sources. YellowMonkey (cricket calendar poll!) 01:32, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Citations have improved somewhat since the start of FAR, and I'll try to help with it more during this week. Random astronomer (talk) 10:22, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added some new source and will add some more. Ruslik (talk) 11:55, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delist, per FA criteria concerns. Cirt (talk) 12:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Cite for the Herschel quote?
  • Perhaps the details of Russell's and Bok's seminal papers could be given?
  • I wonder if there should be a cite for comments like "thought to contain"?
  • There is some repetition of points from the end of the "Observations" section at the end of the "Origin and lifetime" section, though neither one looks out-of-place particularly. DrKiernan (talk) 12:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist, the work done is not enough: it's good adding references, but the article needs an improvement on large-scale. Quoting Cirt. --Roberto Segnali all'Indiano 04:25, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    Ok, but it's important not to forget this article... --Roberto Segnali all'Indiano 09:03, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment, I have made some fixes to the references and it's little nicer now. I think to article is not the bad enough to delist though it need a lot of work. Locos ~ epraix Beaste~praix 04:36, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Currently all statements (except some minor) in the article are cited. I also expanded the lead, which now satisfies FA criteria. I think the article may be kept as FA. Ruslik (talk) 16:52, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I finished. The article can be definitely kept now. Ruslik (talk) 08:13, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"thought to contain many times as much matter as would be needed to create a planetary system like that of the Milky Way." The Milky Way is a galaxy rather than a planetary system. DrKiernan (talk) 09:20, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Clarified. Ruslik_Zero 09:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Just one problem now: File:Rosette Nebula dss2.jpg is nominated for deletion [2]. I recommend removing the image for now, until the deletion request is resolved. DrKiernan (talk) 10:00, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: problems raised are addressed. DrKiernan (talk) 12:43, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are repetitive words from higher in the heading hierarchy in several section headings, per WP:MSH. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:08, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
