replies: text: The part at the end that starts sermonizing about astrology is inappropriate. I'll snip it out myself if no one objects. Thedoorhinge 23:59, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The concept that the section attempts to explain is very valid, and should be retained. The text is, however, very poorly written and should be completely rethought. There is text on the Solar Sytem page that could be incorporated here. --Ckatzchatspy 04:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Even if the concept is valid, it presents an opinion- that astrology flourishes on misconceptions. That isn't for Wikipedia to take a stance on. I'll remove it, if someone wants to find a source of someone significant saying it and put it back as "according to X, misconceptions like this are what allow astrology to flourish" then go ahead.Thedoorhinge 14:34, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry... I was referring to the part about the scale of the Solar System, not the astrology... delete away! --Ckatzchatspy 18:50, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Astrology 

message: Calais,	Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, and Rotterdam are not in the UK, and should be changed to sites more or less north of London; Pluto could be in Snowdonia.  There is in fact no need to use the UK; whole Pluto could be in the Middlesbrough region, more or less.  Or, with the centre near Preston, it may be possible to have at least one body in each of the four constituent parts of the UK - England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. 82.163.24.100 (talk) 11:56, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I have done just that. Using sites in France and the Netherlands for a UK model was ridiculous. The places I have chosen are all fairly large and well-known UK locations accurate to within a mile, according to Great Circle Mapper. Walshie79 (talk) 01:07, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Badly chosen sites 

message: In the talk page of Solar System I wrote
: I have made what I believe to be a very useful education resource, The Solar System, to scale, for a school yard. There are obvious non-N-POV reasons why I should not add on Wikipedia a link to this page. But if a respected editor of some experience and expertise should agree that it is a very useful education resource, and should think it worth adding it to an external links § somewhere suitable, I’d be flattered. But if that respected editor of some experience and expertise should think not, then it should not be done.
to which Tbayboy replied
: Perhaps not here, but I think it would be fitting for Solar System model.
Please consider the same question asked here. JDAWiseman (talk) 11:11, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Solar System, to scale, for a school yard 

message: Just curious why they're listed in the second table, the one for virtual/temporary/dual-scale models.  I was under the impression that they are true-scale models.  Niobrara (talk) 13:10, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
