Talk:Scientists find ancient solar system in Milky Way galaxy

Focal event

The event here would be some form of announcement —I gather, in this case the publication of a journal article— rather than the discovery. --Pi zero (talk) 22:30, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll see what more I can do to add to it. —Sam.gov (talk) 17:30, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Review of revision 3203262 [Passed]

Revision 3203262 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 20:16, 30 January 2015 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Difficulties with distance from source; don't copy passages and "scuff them up" (WN:PILLARS#own). Some factual difficulties; notably, the authors didn't say this offered a path forward to investigate ancient lifeforms, just that it suggests the possibility of ancient lifeforms. Attribute claims carefully when reporting science; most things we "know" about space are based on a tower of theories, so as a matter of conservative caution it's a good idea to attribute claims like "the reason this star dimmed is that a planet was passing in front of it". For this sort of story, identify in the lede what journal the result was published in, and if at all possible provide a link to the journal article in External links. Where the researchers are based is good to mention too. The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
