Keep up the good work. These articles are ideal "good articles". They can't be FA, because there is no way for them to get long enough, but they are as comprehensive and complete as possible, and represent a good effort on the part of the editors. Feel free to message me if you have any questions about my rationale. Phidauex 18:17, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

unclear if it could form?
 though it is unclear whether such moons could actually form.[6] I will remove this claim, for it makes no sense, the abstract that is linked says ~10-4 of the size of their host planet, so the size of the moon that could form scales with the size of the planet, and http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v385/n6613/abs/385234a0.html that specifically speaks of this system, says >0.12 earth size is enough for a substantial enough an atmosphere sustained longterm, and the article claims it could be as much as 14 times as large as jupiter. well, a moon only 5 times as large as Jupiters Ganymede is hence large enough, and depending on how large that gas giant really is it could be allmost 3 times larger than that minimum size, so theres nothing in the reference given that raises doubt if such a moon could form there or not.--89.172.84.10 09:29, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
