Suggested move of Pluto to Pluto (dwarf planet)

[edit]

I have suggested the move to make this disambiguation page the automatic direct for "Pluto". Please add your thoughts at Talk:Pluto The Enlightened (talk) 10:41, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This may be out of context but …

[edit]

This in out of context (as Dr. JHK might say), but how about listing all the women the gods abducted and married or raped. It would be quite a long list, I imagine. I used to like Greek mythology for its many charming stories and insight into human character and relations, but when I think of how the male gods so often took advantage of females I have begun to have second thoughts. Is there a place for this in the wikipedia? User:Ed Poor

'PLUTO' (pipeline)

[edit]

I just did some minor edits to the 'PLUTO' (pipeline) bit, but was wondering -- shouldn't this blurb be on its own page? --Zizonus

"the Roman god above?"

[edit]

Is it necessary to put "the Roman god above"? Wouldn't "the Roman god" suffice? Theaterfreak64 08:36, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)

Removed Pluto as planet discussion

[edit]
Pluto is the solar system object traditionally called a planet (better described scientifically instead as a trans-Neptunian object), named after the Roman god. Its common cultural classification as being a planet (ninth in order of semi-major axis from the Sun) remains a controversial scientific issue.

I don't think that a discussion of the Pluto-Planet or not? controversy belongs on this page. The links to planet and trans-Neptunian object provide plenty of information about this topic. Most people who go to this page looking for Pluto the astronomical object will be wanting to get to the Pluto (planet) page as quickly as possible, without having to parse a paragraph of discussion containing two parenthesized statements.--Wronkiew 15:23, 3 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Paul August 15:32, August 3, 2005 (UTC)

PLUTO the rockband linked incorrectly

[edit]

The link on the name PLUTO goes to operation pluto of WW2. I don't know if there is a site for the band PLUTO but just letting you guys know about just in case.

Pluto as a Planet discussion

[edit]

Watch out for the backlash kids, argument over this old horsechestnut is only just starting.

However some information about the circumstances surronding its (current (?)) declassifcation (as in only 424 of the 2,700 astronomers voted on this issue, which if you believe the IAU's own database of around 10,000 astronomers is less then 4%) and additionally how the new description of a "dwarf planet" technically also invalidates Earth and Jupiter (as they have "not cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit") as Planets. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.75.159.78 (talk)
