Thanks for the review!

As for your comment, I don't think images are a problem. They aren't required by the GA criteria. I will, however, add a picture of its planet in the Planetary System section. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 16:47, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd like, you can use templates like Template:GAList or Template:GAList2 when reviewing. I also suggest you try to build up an article on your own and nominate it for GA, so you can get a better feel for how to review. It definitely helped me when I did so. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 16:50, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thank you for your recommendations and the final decision:Pass

Hyphens again[edit]

This time it is more clear-cut. Yes, there are examples of "horizontal-branch", but I went back though four years of published peer-reviewed papers and only about 2% of them use a dash. Going back further it seems to be more common, but still in the minority. In common usage, the hyphen is very rare. UK/US style differences in the use of hyphenated adjectives? Is this a hyphenated adjective? Lithopsian (talk) 21:01, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Must I really tell you again that that is a hyphen, not a dash? And again, this is not common usage vs. uncommon usage, but an instance of logic: The term is "horizontal branch" (i.e. without a hyphen). When this term is used to modify a noun (i.e. is used as an adjective), e.g. "star", i.e. logically '[horizontal branch] star', this must be written "horizontal-branch star" because otherwise it would indicate 'horizontal [branch star]'. --JorisvS (talk) 12:41, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No planet[edit]

According to this paper, this star has no planet. Looks like this page needs updating --Artman40 (talk) 04:26, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose that the article HIP 13044 b be merged into this article. There is no evidence that this planet exists (see the Jones & Jenkins 2014 reference in this article), so it does not make sense to have a long detailed discussion of a non-existent object. 77.56.99.23 (talk) 17:21, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It may also make sense to review the Good Article status as well. 77.56.99.23 (talk) 17:23, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In this case Template:HIP_13044 should be deleted. Ruslik_Zero 19:01, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
