Merger proposal

 * merged

Merge This merger makes sense to me. Why have another page for just a list when it could enrich the Hypothetical star article if included? ToastyMallows (talk) 13:56, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Grey hole
Are Grey hole and Q star the same thing ?

The same for Quark star and Strange star

Removing Dark Star Category
Why have a Hypothetical star that has proven to not exist under Known Physics? Hypothetical stars refer to those stars which might exist, not those which have been confirmed to not exist. It was hypothetical under Newtonian Physics and both debased and confirmed by General Relativity. It is basically a black hole.

I disagree but I will let this one pass. But hypothetical refers to those which might exist or can exist, not those which can't exist. FlyingNinja1 (talk) 05:44, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Also, according to the page history, we are the first to have a discussion on this page in 6 years. Nice! FlyingNinja1 (talk) 05:43, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * When dark stars were proposed, they appeared to be in accordance with physics as was known. It wasn't until Einstein rewrote the book that dark stars were disproven.  Serendi pod ous  09:39, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Yep General Relativity! FlyingNinja1 (talk) 05:42, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

List
This is a list, from my point of view it should be renamed list of hypothetical stars and treated as a list.

 * No, it's a stubby article which tells us of the (some 24) various types of such stars. It actually lists, at the bottom, only three examples. There should be more discussion about where the conjecture is coming from, as well as, you know,, but the article topic doesn't really fit the list designation. &mdash; JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 02:54, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Oppose this is a stubby article which contains lists, but it is not primarily a list. Walt Yoder (talk) 21:36, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
