Formation and evolution of the Solar System
I'm nominating this article for featured article because it has undergone massive improvement since achieving GA status. I would like to make it a co-nom between myself, Ruslik0, and Ashill. Thank you.  Serendi pod ous  16:08, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Co-nominator: I indeed co-nominate this article. ASHill (talk &#124; contribs) 16:23, 12 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Comments:
 * Image:Pierre-Simon Laplace.jpg and Image:Voyager 2 Neptune and Triton.jpg need verifiable sources per WP:IUP.
 * Left-aligned images should not be placed directly under level two headers (===), see WP:MOS. ЭLСОВВОLД  talk 18:50, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Alignment fixed, and I added a source for Image:Voyager_2_Neptune_and_Triton.jpg. ASHill (talk &#124; contribs) 19:05, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I added a perhaps-slightly-sketchy source for Image:Pierre-Simon Laplace.jpg. ASHill (talk &#124; contribs) 19:55, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, although obviously not the direct source of this copy of the image, that "source" provides what the spirit of IUP is effectively asking for (confirmation of copyright status - in this case, a 1842 creation date to support the PD-Art tag). Good enough for me.  ЭLСОВВОLД  talk 20:02, 12 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Support Comments, leaning toward support. This is a very good article already and only minor tweaks should be needed to get it up to par. I'm going to have accretion nightmares for some years to come now.  Some examples:


 * Support A well-composed article. This one deserves to be on the front page. --ErgoSum88 (talk) 22:06, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Support&mdash; A good article with only a smattering of minor issues.


 * Support for a superb article.
