RY Sagittarii[edit]

  • ... that the star RY Sagittarii is periodically dimmed by clouds of carbon dust, most likely ejected from the star itself?

5x expanded by Casliber (talk). Self nominated at 14:50, 6 July 2014 (UTC).

  • I'm having trouble verifying some of these astronomical object nominations. Where is the ref which confirms that RY Sagittarii is an R Coronae Borealis type star? That should be cited at the top of the article behind the statement. Gatoclass (talk) 06:06, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Added now - SIMBAD mentions it. also footnotes 4 and 7. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 20:44, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Expanded over 5x in the time before nomination, but the editor in question, who also did the QPQ. Article is large enough, page is neutral referenced, and there are the right kind of references to show notability. No plagiarism detected. The hook is short and interesting enough, although cited, the reference does not even mention this star, just another star in the same class. So it would be original research to say the same mechanism applies. However I have found another article that does state this cited elsewhere. So I have added this and given the good to go.
