merge, redirect?
Mostly contains information already at Neptune. :) Dlohcierekim 12:05, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed, this article contains no information of its own, will redirect now. Circeus 15:24, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Inner rings
If there are inner rings, presumably there are also outer rings?  Serendi pod ous  13:39, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Adams is an outer ring. Ruslik (talk) 14:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Some mention should be made of why the Adams ring is distinct from the other inner rings. Also, the diagram makes it seem like Larissa and Proteus have rings.  Serendi pod ous  17:14, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Date of discovery and detection
In the first line of the header it claims that the rings were initially discovered by Voyager in 1989. In the second last line of the header t says that some of the arks of one of the rings havre changed remarkable little since their detection in 1980 - some 9 years prior to their discovery. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.219.60.116 (talk) 11:17, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I think the difference represents the detection by occultations in the 1980s and the definitive observation of the rings during the Voyager fly-by in 1989.&mdash;RJH (talk) 18:44, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Featured Article Picture
Was it meant to have the black box covering what I assume is supposed to be Neptune? If not, it takes away from the actual picture.Halofanatic333 (talk) 12:30, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
 * It's actually two pictures, one on either side of Neptune. The rings are very dark, so if Neptune had been in the same frame, it would have been very difficult to get a clear photo against the relative glare of Neptune. --Patteroast (talk) 13:47, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, that's pretty cool.Halofanatic333 (talk) 21:27, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Not completely true...
The innermost ring of Neptune is called the Galle ring after Johann Gottfried Galle, the first person to see Neptune through a telescope (1846). Actually, Galileo was the first person to see Neptune through a telescope. Galle is the first person to see Neptune and unquestionably realize what it was. 71.23.117.168 (talk) 13:35, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Disagreement about the position of the Adam's ring
At the start of the section titled "Adams ring" the orbital radius of the ring is stated as "about 63,930 km". However later in the table in section titled "Properties", the radius of the Adams ring is stated as 62,932 +/- 2 km. There is a difference of 1,000 km between these two. I believe the second one is correct and the first one is wrong, but I'm not an expert. The first one does have a reference attached, so I was hesitant to just change it. Can someone please confirm which radius is correct and then amend the document accordingly. Thanks.Bob The Tough (talk) 10:06, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
