[edit] Charon is not a dwarf planet
- (2) A "dwarf planet" is a celestial body that (a) is in orbit around the Sun, (b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape2 , (c) has not cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit, and (d) is not a satellite.
You may have confused this resolution with the original draft resolution, which would have made Pluto and Charon a double planet.--JyriL talk 23:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
- No. There is no definition of a satellite, so Charon likely remains a moon. If the IAU decides that it is a dwarf planet, then OK. But claiming it is a dwarf planet could be considered as original research.--JyriL talk 00:04, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] How to mark an article as UK-centric
Is there a tag that can be used to denote that an article (currently) describes the state/situation in the UK?
- {{Globalize/UK}} is what you are looking for. Cheers, Tangotango 11:25, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
