Uranus
I dread to ask, what is needed before this article can get an FA nom? Serendipodous 10:13, 28 July 2007 (UTC)


 * The composition section makes no mention of ammonia, which may form part of the lower cloud layers and be dissolved in the liquid water layer. Otherwise the article seemed fine to me, with perhaps a few minor tweaks needed here and there. &mdash; RJH (talk) 20:00, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -  between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 500 kilometers, use 500 kilometers, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 500&amp;nbsp;kilometers.[?]

✅ At least as far as I can tell. Serendipodous 17:53, 29 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), when doing conversions, please use standard abbreviations: for example, miles -> mi, kilometers squared -> km2, and pounds -> lb.[?]

 * As per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), dates shouldn't use th; for example, instead of using January 30th was a great day, use January 30 was a great day.[?]

That's a quote. Serendipodous 17:53, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

2nd Automated Peer Review
Well done for managing to cover the above. I did the automated peer review again, and these are the results that come back:


 * The lead of this article may be too long, or may contain too many paragraphs. Please follow guidelines at WP:LEAD; be aware that the lead should adequately summarize the article.[?]

I can't make the lead any shorter without removing paragraphs. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * The lead is for summarizing the rest of the article, and should not introduce new topics not discussed in the rest of the article, as per WP:LEAD. Please ensure that the lead adequately summarizes the article.[?]

There is no information in the lead that isn't mentioned somewhere else in the article. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -  between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 720 kilometres, use 720 kilometres, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 720&amp;nbsp;kilometres.[?]

It would help if the program could tell me where they are. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), when doing conversions, please use standard abbreviations: for example, miles -> mi, kilometers squared -> km2, and pounds -> lb.[?]

Where are the unstandard abbreviations? Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Per Wikipedia:Context and Build the web, years with full dates should be linked; for example, link January 15, 2006.[?]

As far as I can tell, all the years with full dates are linked. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * As per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), dates shouldn't use th; for example, instead of using January 30th was a great day, use January 30 was a great day.[?]

That's in a quote. Shouldn't this program ignore sections in quotes? Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * There are a few occurrences of weasel words in this article- please observe WP:AWT. Certain phrases should specify exactly who supports, considers, believes, etc., such a view.

Again, please tell me where they are, and I'll get rid of them. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Please make the spelling of English words consistent with either American or British spelling, depending upon the subject of the article. Examples include: honour (B) (American: honor), meter (A) (British: metre), metre (B) (American: meter), recognise (B) (American: recognize), ization (A) (British: isation), analyze (A) (British: analyse), travelled (B) (American: traveled),  grey (B) (American:  gray).

I have gone through this article four times with a British spell checker and there are no US English flags. Serendipodous 11:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * As done in WP:FOOTNOTE, footnotes usually are located right after a punctuation mark (as recommended by the CMS, but not mandatory), such that there is no space in between. For example, the sun is larger than the moon [2]. is usually written as the sun is larger than the moon.[2][?]

I've gone through the article and I can't find any examples of that. EDIT: Found an extra full stop. Serendipodous 11:33, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Hope this helps you further better the article. Thanks, Davnel03 20:57, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
