Two Planets in One System

Howdy, I think this needs to be broken up little bit plus the Era specific information need to be seperated from Planetary Data. I think Mars should get its own Planet article, since Niops V, VII and VIII have individual listings and it makes for less clustered article. Also, there maybe call to reorganize Terra related info since there staggering amount information. -- Wrangler 22:02, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

You mean Mars? Or the moons of Saturn that have bases? ClanWolverine101 06:09, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
I think Wrangler mean's the Mars.--Doneve 07:09, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Niops V, VII and VIII are seperate stars not planets, so your argument is invalid.— The preceding unsigned comment was posted by 24.79.78.16 (talkcontribs) on 28 October 2010.


Population

71.195.10.41 changed the population figures for each stated year to exactly 12 billion today. Here's where not having citations causes doubts in readers (myself, in this case). The original data had three unique population counts, one for each stated year, but was also not cited. However, in the absence of supporting evidence (by editor 71.195.10.41 or anyone else), I feel the original data is more likely and I'll revert it, unless properly cited in short order.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 20:23, 8 February 2012 (PST)

Turns out the section was properly cited, as I found the 3130 population figure. I directly cited it and changed it to the proper amount. Other changes still need to be properly cited or face reversion.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 20:32, 8 February 2012 (PST)
At first I corrected the 3076 population and adding a ref.note, and i undo user 71.195.10.41 revision, he changed all back what Revanche and I fixed on the page.--Doneve 12:47, 9 February 2012 (PST)

Terra or Sol?

Is there a canon source that specifies that it has been renamed from the Sol system to the Terra system? I am seeing multiple references to "Sol" in various articles, and at the very least Jerome Blake's announcement referred to the system as "Sol". I propose that Terra should be a redirect to Sol III, and "Sol" should be the name of the system article. If someone has better information, please share.--Talvin (talk) 21:29, 13 March 2022 (EDT)

I'm not ready to take sides on this, as I need to consider additional arguments. Here are one past attempt to build consensus over system names that included the discussion of Sol & Terra:
Question for you, Talvin: do you know of any cases where the system was referred to as the Terran system? If not, I'll ask on the #research-desk. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 22:18, 13 March 2022 (EDT)
