Talk:Solar System

The template is covering up the text. I removed it. Conservative 23:41, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

Could you please post a screen shot so that I can look at how it renders and make appropriate changes to the table in the template? --Mtur 23:42, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't know what your talking about but the text of the article is being covered up by that thing you want to put in. Conservative 23:43, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

It isn't appearing like that on my screen, or Mtur's screen, apparently. Press "print screen", paste it in to MS paint, upload to Photobucket (or Imageshack), and then link us to the image. --Hojimachong^talk 23:46, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't have the software above, hoji. Conservative 23:47, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

Could you say what operating system and browser are you using? It would go a ways to finding the problem (to see if someone else can recreate it) and finding a screen capture program for you to use. --Mtur 23:52, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I think I fixed it; the template was using "float; 'absolute'" at 15px from the right. So it was at an absolute location, not relative to the rest of the content. I think that fixed it. --Hojimachong^talk 23:53, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

On the capitalization of Solar System

From the International Astronomical Union

The IAU formally recommends that the initial letters of the names of individual astronomical objects should be printed as capitals (see the IAU Style Manual, Trans. Int. Astron. Union, volume 20B, 1989; Chapter 8, page S30); e.g., Earth, Sun, Moon, etc. "The Earth's equator" and "Earth is a planet in the Solar System" are examples of correct spelling according to these rules.

Fixedearth.com

That fixedearth site doesn't look like a very reliable resource.... HelpJazz 18:56, 24 February 2008 (EST)

Well, logically you might think that, but... Feebasfactor 19:10, 24 February 2008 (EST)

That joke's not really that funny anymore. HelpJazz 21:08, 24 February 2008 (EST)

You're right. I'm sorry HelpJazz. :-( Feebasfactor 16:58, 25 February 2008 (EST)

Wasn't trying to be mean :( Look now I'm sad, too! HelpJazz 18:14, 25 February 2008 (EST)

XD Well sometimes I joke a bit too much. I do think you're a cool guy though. Feebasfactor 18:43, 25 February 2008 (EST)

Age of solar system

If you have sources for theories about the age of the solar system, please include this information in a section of the article before changing the intro. Thanks from a senior editor. --Ed Poor ^Talk 15:58, 25 August 2012 (EDT)

I added the origin of solar systems but people keep reverting. Annoyingly, they don't even give a reason. Provide one please. AcomaMagic 15:59, 25 August 2012 (EDT)

• Not "people", but a user with blocking rights and a senior admin. You know better than to start an edit war. Also, my comment above gave the reason; don't pretend you didn't see it. --Ed Poor ^Talk 16:39, 25 August 2012 (EDT)

Conservapedia takes a Young Earth Creationist approach to the question of the origins of the physical universe. MattyD 16:01, 25 August 2012 (EDT)

No, it doesn't. It does, however, respect all viewpoints on issues where there is a controversy. So:

1. Do not start a new section about this, as if you hadn't bothered to read what was already written, and
2. Avoid making nonsensical comments about policy, and
3. Do not say no reason was given for a revert, when one was given.

You are allowed to disagree about how to write an article, but you're not allowed to make up fictions. First, last, and only warning. --Ed Poor ^Talk 16:06, 25 August 2012 (EDT)

I added the YEC view, however it really is undo weight to add a fringe view to the solar system article. That sort of theory only belong on YEC's article. AcomaMagic 08:02, 9 September 2012 (EDT)

I'd like an explanation for the revert of my revert by Conservative. Also, WRITE AN EDIT SUMMARY!!!!! This will save a lot of time and will not contribute to you looking like an arrogant *bleep*. AcomaMagic 19:03, 16 September 2012 (EDT)
