# Talk:J1407b

The object is notable enough to have its own article due to its large rings.🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 16:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

Support, but how has J1407b merged? 117daveawesome (talk) 13:14, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Looking at the page history, there have been several attempted splits over the years. SevenSpheres (talk) 16:54, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Oppose, the star V1400 Centauri is notable for the transit event caused by this object with a large ring system. An article on said object (the exact nature of which is uncertain) would just duplicate information in the existing article. SevenSpheres (talk) 16:54, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Should we use {{Infobox planet}} or the current starboxes? If we added the {{Infobox planet}} template, some parameters like discovery date could be added. 21 Andromedae (talk) 16:26, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

@21.Andromedae: I don't have a strong preference for either, since we don't know enough about the object's properties to warrant a change. I'd be fine if other people think otherwise, though. Nrco0e (talk • contribs) 16:40, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
Honestly I'm surprised starboxes don't accommodate discovery dates in the first place, this seems like quite the oversight. ArkHyena (talk) 16:37, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

While I see fit that this page doesn't present J1407b as the "supersaturn" it isn't, I think this page should mention this original belief and how extend it came to be. WillySalami (talk) 16:26, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@WillySalami: Do you have any specific ideas what should be changed/included? Renerpho (talk) 14:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
I'd mention the existence of this belief at the beggining, then put a little section at the end explaining it more deeply and when/how it got debunked. WillySalami (talk) 22:48, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

The article says
"J1407b is a substellar object, either a free-floating planet or brown dwarf, with a massive circumplanetary disk or ring system."
Is the ring system really "massive", or is it just "huge"? Can a ring system even be massive? A planet can, but a planetary ring?

The ring/disk of J1407b is estimated at around 100 lunar masses or ~1.23 Earth masses. I suppose calling it "massive" may be subjective. Looks like the sources in this article don't call the disk "massive", but I've seen this one call J1407b's disk "giant". I've replaced "massive" with "large" now. Hope that helps.
