Data discrepancies edit

There seem to be discrepancies between this table and the data listed on wiki pages for individual planets. For example, the masses for Kepler-47b and c are 8.427 M_E and 23.17 M_E, respectively, but their masses were listed as 2 M_J and 28 M_J in the table. I've changed those two to match the individual wiki pages, which agrees with the research I found online. There's so much data in this table, I don't know how one would go about checking their validity. Trevori (talk) 04:39, 20 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Trevori: I'd recommend first checking against the Extrasolar Planets Encyclopedia (http://exoplanet.eu). –LaundryPizza03 (d) 05:04, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ref column offset edit

It appears the ref column is offset, for example refs for Kepler 16b are in the row for Kepler 15b etc.. -- GreenC 06:19, 22 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

@GreenC: It's far worse than that... There is even worse offset in the reference column further down, with Kepler-85b's row listing a reference for Kepler-91b. This may also explain some of the errors in the other columns. I'd suggest redoing these tables from scratch using a computer program to load in data. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 06:53, 22 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
