COI[edit]

I'm probably going to be improving this article over the coming weeks. As a precaution I thought it worth mentiong my possible Conflict of Interest; I'm currently a summer student at the observatory. As with all my editing I will be making sure to remain neutral but feel free to point out if anything doesn't seem neutral. Sam Walton (talk) 08:37, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Location[edit]

Should the coordinates point to the old observatory site or the current location of the department? Sam Walton (talk) 14:44, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about an item at the Leiden Observatory. No particular rationale was provided why this chair would be notable other than that Albert Einstein may have sat on it (however notability is not inherited), nor is it clear from any sources why this artifact would be notable separate from the institute that houses it. gidonb (talk) 05:30, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
