No Halley's comet contradiction

You wrote that there was a contradiction between the November 12 date in the article and the dates given by tablets at the British Museum. There is not. November 12 is the calculated date of perihelion, the closest approach to the Sun. It was visible before that. The tablet just records a few days of observations.

Comment: I didn´t write that there was a contradiction between the November 12 date in the article and the dates given by tablets at the British Museum. Talk:Halley's_Comet#164BC_Discrepancy I wrote about the wrong tablet and integrated the better one.
