NGC 6067

NGC 6067

  • ... that the open cluster NGC 6067 (pictured) is 15 to 20 times as rich as the Pleiades?

5x expanded by Casliber (talk) and VirtualDave (talk). Nominated by Casliber (talk) at 15:13, 16 June 2015 (UTC).

  • I will take this one, —Noswall59 (talk) 22:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Prose portion expansion, ~1548 vs. ~277, so expanded enough and large enough (just).
  • Article is: neutral and well cited. It has been run through Earwig's copyvio and is clear ("violation unlikely: 20.6% confidence").
  • QPQ checks out
  • Hook is verified by the source, which is reliable; Well within character limit; and neutral.
  • No images
  • Symbol question.svg Query: I am not an astronomer and I don't know what you mean by "rich" in this context - could a link be supplied? Otherwise, it's good to go. —Noswall59 (talk) 22:07, 16 June 2015 (UTC).
This section of the article Open cluster (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_cluster#Morphology_and_classification) has an explanation of "richness" of clusters.VirtualDave (talk) 23:32, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
Okay, so it seems to be more about the "density" of stars. Well, I am not sure that the section you've provided is very explicit, but I think it might be worth providing a link to it in the hook. —Noswall59 (talk) 21:41, 20 June 2015 (UTC).
