Discovery dates
The article currently states: Template:Tq
The source 32 does not have any dates or names for rings. This source says on ring D Template:Tq, and confirms that ring F was discovered by Pioneer 11. This one (the best overview of ring D that I've found), states Template:Tq For the ring E I'm still looking for a better source.
Does anyone know why the article currently says that the D-ring was discovered in 1933? Is it even possible? And what about other dates? Artem.G (talk) 18:55, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
- The wording is an un-referenced add by Urhixidur on 24 March 2020. There is contradictory information (with reference) further down the article at "Physical parameters of the rings". There is further reference for the Barabashov and Semejkin claim here, PDF here. Maybe the claims should be removed from the "Huygens' ring hypothesis and later developments" section and added at the table at "Physical parameters of the rings" where the minutia of who discovered what can be expanded on.

Evolution vs development
This might be a lost cause, but shouldn't we talk about stellar development instead of evolution? Species evolve, individuals don't. Talking about individual things 'evolving' creates another hurdle when explaining evolution to creationists. SleekWeasel (talk) 09:04, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
