:I think you're right - with the additional reason that an article about an "unknown star system" would most likely hold no information that is not already available via the planet article, making the article unnecessary.

Pretty much the ones currently at the top of the New Pages list. I can be more specific later today, no time right now.--[[User:31dot|31dot]] 09:57, September 8, 2011 (UTC)

Revision as of 09:57, 8 September 2011

Forums ForumsTen Forward → Pages for deletion/Unsaid star system articles (replywatch)

It had been my understanding that we didn't have a separate star system article about a planet's star system if there was no specific reference to the system itself- in other words, we didn't have star system articles by assumption- to avoid duplication, especially if there was only one planet involved. A star can be named differently than the planets in its system as well, such as our own star system, or for other reasons(Dytallix B is not in the Dytallix system, nor is it the 2nd planet). I'm asking just because there have been a few of these articles created recently.--31dot 09:25, September 8, 2011 (UTC)

If it isn't by assumption, that's fine, I just wanted to get myself straightened out.--31dot 09:30, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
