Orphaned references in Alpha Cancri

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Alpha Cancri's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 07:43, 20 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Acubens → Alpha Cancri – Only a relatively small number of stars have proper names that are in more common and widespread use than their Bayer designations. This isn't one of them. It slipped through the net about a year ago when it was moved to the proper name, apparently without discussion. Lithopsian (talk) 20:02, 3 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Weak support, my search at Google Scholar don't find substantial results for Acubens that are related to this star; but about 10 results for Alpha Cancri. While this, the mainstream sources appear to don't have a consistent use, these use mainly Acubens, but those prefer Alpha Cancri. 21 Andromedae (talk) 20:45, 3 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
