Remove original research? edit

I'm not going to fight it, but I think the statement "From the surface of 1998 PG, the moon would have an angular diameter of 11.49°. For comparison, the Sun appears to be 0.5° from Earth" is unnecessary original research here and can be removed without adverse affect on the article.

This isn't OR in the sense that WP:OR prohibits. This is simply providing context using very simple and non-controversial calculations. That being said, the calculations were wrong. I've updated them.Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 15:05, 20 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'll go along with it, in a case like this. As you said, the calculations are not controversial...after you fixed them ;-) Cheers, AstroCog (talk) 15:34, 20 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Overall revision 2017 edit

The article (31345) 1998 PG has been revised as of March 2017. I left the above mentioned calculation untouched. However, I had to remove the text and image that referred to the Table Mountain Observatory, as this seems not to be related to the object. I must admit though, that obtaining sources and consolidating the data with the existing content has been exceptionally difficult. I also demoted the article to "Start-class" (from C-class).
