 * please find an image for relative planet sizes for the system. something along the lines of this
 * ✅ --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:49, 26 March 2011 (UTC)


 * "Kepler-11b, along with its five counterparts, form the first discovered planetary system with over three planets; the most densely packed known planetary system; and the flattest known planetary system." needs citation
 * ✅ --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 25 March 2011 (UTC)


 * "As Kepler-11b was announced simultaneously with other planets, Kepler-11b was given the designation b because it was the innermost of the six announced planets." move at the end of the paragraph for a better flow
 * Comment It would split up the explanation of the planet's naming. --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment I moved the preceding info about Kepler to after this sentence to improve flow. Nstock (talk) 23:31, 25 March 2011 (UTC)


 * " form the first discovered planetary system with over three planets" WRONG! The ref says "ew stars are known to have more than one transiting planet, and Kepler-11 is the first known star to have more than three" which means it is the first star with three TRANSITING planets. Just take a look at List of planetary systems and you will see that it is the second with 6 total planets.

 * please fix " It is part of the first system discovered with more than three planets," also
 * ✅ --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:08, 25 March 2011 (UTC)


 * "Metallicity plays an important role in determining if a planet can exist, and if so, what kind of planet will exist in a star's system" please expand a bit (higher metallicity higher chance for higher density planet?

 * "Kepler-11b is a rocky planet of 4.3 Earth masses and 1.97 Earth radii," is misleading. The radius has an error of 10% and the mass has 50%.

 * "Its light density suggests that it is not of Earth-like composition.[" how does it compare to Uranus and Neptune? or hot jupiters?
 * ✅ compared to solar system bodies. Nstock (talk) 19:39, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Comment - bah, Nergaal beat me to it :). Anyway some additional comments.
 * "Kepler-11b is approximately 5% less massive and 10% wider than the Sun." ==> assuming, you mean Kepler-11 here, the star itself?
 * ✅ Nstock (talk) 19:39, 25 March 2011 (UTC)


 * "the most densely packed known planetary system; and the flattest known planetary system" ==> the main article Kepler-11 states "it is one of the flattest..." not the flattest known. Which one is correct (please correct other one)?
 * ✅ It has been dealt with. The Kepler-11b note is the correct one. --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:55, 26 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Ref. 2 "Extrasolar Planets Encyclopaedia" has an author Jean Schneider listed in the website. ==> should be added.
 * ✅ --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)


 * link to Denice Chow ==> i'd suggest to put this in a formal "External links" section.
 * ✅ --Starstriker7(Talk) 00:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Kepler 11 is listed in source 2 as KIC 6541920 as alternate designation ==> worth adding somewhere?
 * Comment The alternative designations for Kepler 11 are listed on the Kepler 11 page. Kepler-11b has no KIC designation (although it does have a KOI designation) Nstock (talk) 19:39, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
