Merge into pulsar edit
Since this article is not about a natural kind of pulsars (as far as we know), but instead pulsars that happenstance have been visually identified, wouldn't it be suitable to merge it all into pulsar? ... said: Rursus (mbork³) 13:08, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Duplicate Crab Pulsar - done edit
Why is there the Crab Pulsar with B=17, and PSR B0531+21 with B=18? This is the same pulsar, as you can see by following to its specific page.89.12.88.64 (talk) 17:12, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
Definition edit
Are these an optically visible subset of the [radio] pulsars ? or could they be optical with no radio emissions ? If so, do we separate them from variable stars just by period ? Could they be infrared optical rather than visible light ? - Rod57 (talk) 13:39, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
Is magnitude the max or min edit
Presumably the magnitude column is the peak magnitude. Do they all vary by 100%, ie down to zero ? Is the optical pulse profile the same as the radio pulse profile (in period and phase) ? - Rod57 (talk) 13:47, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
