1327070977 2025-12-12T12:28:09Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1326981159|1326981159]] by [[Special:Contributions/Renerpho|Renerpho]] ([[User talk:Renerpho|talk]]) 2015 FF415 was not a flyby. I specifically mention that 2025 UC11 is a flyby. I did not state that 2025 UC11 was the smallest asteroid ever to be tracked.

1327070512 2025-12-12T12:24:15Z Joe Cerniglia tightening the phrasing of the important lead sentence.
1327070236 2025-12-12T12:21:20Z Joe Cerniglia < 1 LD is too precise and an unneeded qualification in any event.
1327068782 2025-12-12T12:06:48Z Joe Cerniglia Response to Renerpho's edit: FF415 was not an Earth grazer; thus, 2025 UC11 is still distinctive in size due to its allied closeness. The original text may have been too definitive and absolute.
1326981159 2025-12-11T23:47:05Z Renerpho Need citation that this is the smallest, compare https://minorplanetcenter.net/db_search/show_object?utf8=%E2%9C%93&object_id=2015+FF415

1323650256 2025-11-23T00:59:24Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1323650037|1323650037]] by [[Special:Contributions/Joe Cerniglia|Joe Cerniglia]] ([[User talk:Joe Cerniglia|talk]]) Reconsidered.
1323650037 2025-11-23T00:58:10Z Joe Cerniglia /* Discovery Methods */ The second paragraph raises up a "potent technique" without naming it. Inserted the words "synthetic tracking" into the paragraph.
1323629472 2025-11-22T22:32:11Z Joe Cerniglia Revised the first sentence of the section titled "Discovery Methods" to clarify the role of humans who use telescopes, rather than telescopes that report discoveries.
1323613642 2025-11-22T20:32:51Z Joe Cerniglia Removing most of the Notes comments because it makes the text harder to read.
1323613069 2025-11-22T20:28:07Z Joe Cerniglia Commented out the notes. I'm not sure it adds enough value to warrant having it.
1323608891 2025-11-22T19:58:03Z Joe Cerniglia Testing out a new Explanatory Notes section.
1323572663 2025-11-22T15:33:27Z Joe Cerniglia /* Initial discovery and observation */ October 30, 2025 was on Pacific Daylight Time, not Pacific Standard Time. The conversion is -7 hours, not -8 as I incorrectly wrote previously.
1323546191 2025-11-22T11:35:06Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ Changing the title of this section to be more generic and more applicable as a "template" for other asteroid articles.
1323545940 2025-11-22T11:32:45Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1323518937|1323518937]] by [[Special:Contributions/Guninvalid|Guninvalid]] ([[User talk:Guninvalid|talk]]) In my humble opinion, this doesn't really work as a subsection of the Orbit and Classification section. ST is a method of discovery. I will go into this more on your page. Highest respect intended.
1323545585 2025-11-22T11:29:25Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1323545337|1323545337]] by [[Special:Contributions/Joe Cerniglia|Joe Cerniglia]] ([[User talk:Joe Cerniglia|talk]]) The new heading doesn't really work.
1323545337 2025-11-22T11:27:11Z Joe Cerniglia /* Orbit and classification */ Testing out a new topic heading to include the new subsection placed underneath this section by the Wikipedia editor.
1323541977 2025-11-22T10:54:20Z Joe Cerniglia The sentence with the word "differentiates" is a bit convoluted. Its convoluted quality lends it a kind of official tone, which I somewhat like. But it needed a little grammatical tidying up. The trailing "and.." clause was dangling off of the end of the sentence. I improved it by inserting an extra verbal clause "did not result," which ties it back to the noun "approach."
1323518937 2025-11-22T06:27:41Z Guninvalid /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */better as a subsection
1323488461 2025-11-22T02:07:49Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ refining page numbers of the Zhai citations.
1323487605 2025-11-22T02:00:15Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ refining the page number of the first Zhai citation.
1323486699 2025-11-22T01:52:25Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ a few wording changes to the paragraph to add better flow and aid comprehension
1323486201 2025-11-22T01:48:30Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ removing a duplicated word "when when."
1323486119 2025-11-22T01:47:53Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ minor wording choices to the first paragraph; may sharpen the thoughts slightly.
1323484814 2025-11-22T01:38:18Z Joe Cerniglia modifying the space reference citation to conform to the other citations. Authors are listed with last name first.
1323484263 2025-11-22T01:33:08Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ added "and faint" to the last sentence.
1323469447 2025-11-21T23:34:20Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ changed "significance in" to "significance to."
1323469323 2025-11-21T23:33:16Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */deleted "the reasons for."
1323457911 2025-11-21T21:52:27Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ testing out small wording changes to clarify the points in the first paragraph as completely as possible.
1323457627 2025-11-21T21:49:49Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ "reasons why" ==> "reasons for"
1323457564 2025-11-21T21:49:11Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ minor rewording of the first paragraph.
1323446732 2025-11-21T20:21:59Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ quotation marks around "integrate" as a specialized term.
1323445766 2025-11-21T20:14:27Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ Added in the modifier "near-Earth" in the last sentence to tie the thought back to the use of this technique for near-Earth objects.
1323439512 2025-11-21T19:29:17Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ Expanding the slightly awkward possessive form of the proper noun for the observatory.
1323436129 2025-11-21T19:07:43Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ added that the faster motion rate is not an intrinsic property but "relative to the observer" and the observer's closeness to the object.
1323434829 2025-11-21T18:59:13Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ added missing close quotation marks.
1323434731 2025-11-21T18:58:31Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ further refinements to the last section, tying it convincingly to the main article.
1323432178 2025-11-21T18:42:01Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ small wording enhancement.
1323430349 2025-11-21T18:26:17Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ Added in wording to demonstrate why this specific meteoroid warranted unique methods of synthetic tracking.
1323426385 2025-11-21T17:55:22Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ testing out even further cuts to the ST section.
1323425067 2025-11-21T17:45:24Z Joe Cerniglia Moving up the orbital diagram and the flyby diagram to the previous secction.
1323422468 2025-11-21T17:24:00Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ revising the second sentence because the discovery was mentioned in the first sentence after the previous edit.
1323422330 2025-11-21T17:22:59Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ strengthening the first sentence
1323409756 2025-11-21T15:45:01Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ reworded the final paragraph for flow and grammar.
1323409544 2025-11-21T15:43:10Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ putting a closing sentence into the article and citing it.
1323401954 2025-11-21T14:47:21Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ First pass at trimming back the Synthetic Objects section, in compliance with Wikipedia policies on subject drift. The trimmed material could become the basis for a later stand-alone article, called Synthetic Tracking of near-Earth Objects, which does not now exist.
1323384329 2025-11-21T12:00:24Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1323384215|1323384215]] by [[Special:Contributions/Joe Cerniglia|Joe Cerniglia]] ([[User talk:Joe Cerniglia|talk]]) undue repetition in last edit. Reconsidered.
1323384215 2025-11-21T11:59:20Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ added "discover" to the lead of the section, to emphasize its indispensability.
1323383328 2025-11-21T11:49:09Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ added in citation from the last edit.
1323383044 2025-11-21T11:45:36Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ one sentence just touching as lightly as possible on the fact that ST has a brief history since 2014 (to be cited in next edit).
1323382217 2025-11-21T11:35:24Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ Cleaning up some changed citation reference tags after trimming a paragraph.
1323380498 2025-11-21T11:15:44Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ removing extra space. Keeping the trimmed section as an HTML comment so that it can be retained for future use in a stand-alone article on ST
1323380424 2025-11-21T11:14:50Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ trimming the section. It's of interest in a future stand-alone on synthetic tracking that I may be able with time to write.
1323375486 2025-11-21T10:20:37Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ "beyond the orbit of Uranus" ==> "at or beyond the orbit of Uranus." It's close paraphrasing. I will sooner accept in myself close paraphrasing than I will accept in myself sloppy paraphrasing.
1323349064 2025-11-21T05:29:14Z Guninvalid /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */
1323340597 2025-11-21T04:17:08Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ adding that the early research ST studies were not tracking asteroids.
1323337874 2025-11-21T03:56:52Z Joe Cerniglia /* Star confusion */ Here I am trying to explain a little better this concept of how/why the star is streaking. I am doing my best.
1323331714 2025-11-21T03:07:16Z Joe Cerniglia /* Star confusion */ I don't see why the calculation is needed in this paragraph. It's beyond the scope of the paper.
1323330187 2025-11-21T02:54:52Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ closing a parentheses.
1323330016 2025-11-21T02:53:23Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ explaining the history of ST a little better, using the Heinze article as a cited source.
1323329195 2025-11-21T02:46:27Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ technique ==> method
1323329093 2025-11-21T02:45:51Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ I'm taking out the reference to 2014. While this is the date of an important study, I'm not sure it marks a "watershed" of some sort that is worth remarking on. Also, rewriting the sentence to suggest a little bit more about the history of ST.
1323324853 2025-11-21T02:11:32Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic tracking of near-Earth objects */ I had the sequence of page numbers reversed in the Heinze citation. I'm fixing this now.
1323311350 2025-11-21T00:35:43Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ changed a comma to a period to resolve a typo.
1323311293 2025-11-21T00:35:14Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ The sentence as it had been structured was too ambitious. It tried to frame how "relatively recently" ST had been adopted, a question whose answer would quickly become outdated in any case. I've restructured the sentence as a general statement on the growing acceptance in the astronomy community of ST for asteroids.
1323310407 2025-11-21T00:29:09Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ need to qualify it even more. The cited passage needs re-reading to get the sense and the careful way it's been qualified.
1323285353 2025-11-20T21:29:35Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ history of astronomy has a Wikipedia link. There's no sense in wasting it.
1323279877 2025-11-20T20:49:51Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by other observatories */ added "in comparison with the history of astronomy." Ten years is a very long time purely in terms of technological improvements.

1323048913 2025-11-19T10:33:46Z Joe Cerniglia /* Efficacy Trials */ removing "or H." Apparent magnitude is not absolute magnitude. I need to supply a definition in the Glossary but for now I will link it to Wikipedia.
1322992156 2025-11-19T01:05:24Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ moved the first Zhao citation to the end of the paragraph, and put a page number into the citation as well.
1322980174 2025-11-18T23:25:29Z Joe Cerniglia taking out the word "Earth" in the sentence because Earth was already mentioned a few words earlier.
1322980061 2025-11-18T23:24:33Z Joe Cerniglia adding in the adjective "solar" to describe the orbit to which the object was re-emerging, just so that it is clear I am not referring to Earth orbit.
1322979776 2025-11-18T23:22:10Z Joe Cerniglia The sentence about "had it not survived" was something of a tautology. Had it not survived, it would have burned up. The reader can probably figure out what I meant, but it needed work. I've changed the "did not survive" to "did not re-emerge back into orbit." I think that's really the sense that was intended.
1322979229 2025-11-18T23:17:34Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ adding a Glossary link to absolute magnitude.
1322978746 2025-11-18T23:14:15Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ added in word "the."
1322957084 2025-11-18T20:38:16Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ fixing albedo title in the Glossary.
1322956985 2025-11-18T20:37:25Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ removing an extra parenthesis
1322956894 2025-11-18T20:36:36Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ moving the expansion of CNEOS Glossary information to the title parameter, where it belongs.
1322956556 2025-11-18T20:33:59Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ fixing placement of Glossary entry from previous edit.
1322956396 2025-11-18T20:32:41Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ specifying names of Glossary entries in the CNEOS Glossary, since this website is used more than once.
1322931786 2025-11-18T17:46:18Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ added the word "both" to the PHA Glossary definition to emphasize that the object must be large and close to be hazardous.
1322927560 2025-11-18T17:20:43Z Joe Cerniglia changed "falls within the range" to "is within the range" so that the unintentional pun deriving from the word "falls" may be removed.
1322908619 2025-11-18T15:20:30Z Joe Cerniglia /* Orbit and Classification */ consolidating Horizon website links.
1322908362 2025-11-18T15:18:33Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ adding in ref tag for Horizons website.
1322899811 2025-11-18T14:20:28Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ added a subject, "it," to the second part of the compound sentence for better parallelism.
1322899692 2025-11-18T14:19:44Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ cleaning up the syntax from the last edit.
1322899597 2025-11-18T14:18:51Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ changing the word "difficult" to "challenging." "Challenging" is a word astronomers seem to be using to describe these situation more commonly than "difficult."
1322899378 2025-11-18T14:16:57Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ Removing the section about orbital data "degrading over time." These are all reasonable assumptions I have made, but I do not want to assume what is possible one year from now when the object has its next close approach in February, 2026.
1322897838 2025-11-18T14:05:21Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ Uncommenting the citation for the Zhao article so that the citations for Zhao, etc. may begin here. This is a cascading effect of the changes I made to the Ephemerides section in the previous edit.
1322897548 2025-11-18T14:03:09Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ I need to be more circumspect in the detail of the claims I am making. It may be possible to view the object in future approaches. I am not sure. There are mathematical formulas that can be tested against apparent magnitude limits, but this introduces a more technical scope than would seem warranted here. Uncertainty on this point does not detract from the overall points of the article. Where there is uncertainty, it is better to be more circumspect.
1322894898 2025-11-18T13:45:03Z Joe Cerniglia Undid revision [[Special:Diff/1322893412|1322893412]] by [[Special:Contributions/Joe Cerniglia|Joe Cerniglia]] ([[User talk:Joe Cerniglia|talk]]) I need to think more carefully about this.

1322830284 2025-11-18T03:13:12Z Joe Cerniglia changed "officially announced" ==> "listed." This is probably a more accurate description of the process.
1322822433 2025-11-18T02:28:23Z Joe Cerniglia /* Test Trials */ Changing the title of the section to be less redundant.
1322819166 2025-11-18T02:05:04Z Joe Cerniglia /* Orbital Elements */ removed redundant phrase "except Earth."
1322817111 2025-11-18T01:52:26Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ changed "by" ==> "for." Quality may be limited "for" dim objects, rather than "by" dim objects.
1322816919 2025-11-18T01:51:16Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ added an extra sentence to bridge the flow a bit better.
1322816417 2025-11-18T01:47:38Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ fixed subject-verb agreement problem. Changed "are" to "is."

1322815267 2025-11-18T01:39:19Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ tightening the spacing between a sentence and its citation index.
1322814543 2025-11-18T01:33:37Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ misread the O'Donnell article regarding ISO. Changing "high iso" to "low ISO.
1322813948 2025-11-18T01:29:46Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ trimming the paragraph on background noise to include the most relevant aspects.
1322812533 2025-11-18T01:19:21Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ reversing the order of the paragraphs in this section.
1322812454 2025-11-18T01:18:41Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ correcting a misplaced reference tag for a citation.
1322812208 2025-11-18T01:16:59Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ revised paragraph on causes of background noise to sharpen the clarity.
1322811072 2025-11-18T01:08:04Z Joe Cerniglia /* Automation and Manual Work */ changing tense of "wished" to present "wish."
1322810953 2025-11-18T01:07:03Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ added in "followed this recommendation."
1322810192 2025-11-18T01:01:37Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ simplified a sentence describing limitations on viewing objects under good conditions.
1322800764 2025-11-18T00:54:42Z Joe Cerniglia /* Automation and Manual Work */ changed "have been automating" to "wished to automate." That's an accurate description of their intentions.
1322799687 2025-11-18T00:53:52Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ simplifying the first sentence.
1322756401 2025-11-17T23:48:32Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ added that it is the "data from" future oppositions, rather than simply the oppositions themselves, that provide for a better determined orbit.
1322756018 2025-11-17T23:45:45Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ "less faint" ==> "brighter"
1322755704 2025-11-17T23:43:28Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ added in a sentence about how higher absolute magnitude equates to faintness.
1322755549 2025-11-17T23:42:19Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ linked absolute magnitude to the Glossary.
1322755363 2025-11-17T23:40:56Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ "fainter" ==> "less faint." Higher magnitudes mean dimmer objects.
1322754111 2025-11-17T23:31:18Z Joe Cerniglia Deleting the Notable Characteristics section. Everything important in this section is well-covered in the Intro. The Great Daylight Fireball is of interest, but not wholly necessary. It could go into a special Notes section later if it is missed..
1322746378 2025-11-17T22:40:09Z Joe Cerniglia /* Automation and Manual Work */ "working on" ==> "have been". The paper is four years old, so the verb tense does not need to be so precise.
1322706183 2025-11-17T18:21:36Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ removed long quotation.
1322699980 2025-11-17T17:42:01Z Citation bot Alter: url, pages. URLs might have been anonymized. Add: date, bibcode, archive-date, archive-url. Removed parameters. Formatted [[WP:ENDASH|dashes]]. | [[:en:WP:UCB|Use this bot]]. [[:en:WP:DBUG|Report bugs]]. | Suggested by Joe Cerniglia | #UCB_webform

1322693295 2025-11-17T16:58:08Z Joe Cerniglia corrected Julian Date in the epoch.
1322693026 2025-11-17T16:56:10Z Joe Cerniglia adding epoch to the planet Infobox.
1322678390 2025-11-17T15:13:24Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ changed "cites" ==> "states." States as a verb is more flexible and fitting than "cites."
1322678028 2025-11-17T15:10:58Z Joe Cerniglia /* Notable Characteristics */ deleted "near-Earth objects" from a sentence because it's redundant.
1322677918 2025-11-17T15:10:00Z Joe Cerniglia /* Initial Discovery Observation */ deleted the word "astronomers" in a sentence because it's redundant.
1322669832 2025-11-17T14:07:56Z Joe Cerniglia Changed "calculated formulas" ==> "calculations"
1322669665 2025-11-17T14:06:38Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ including Wiki markup for Astronomical Unit.

1322659570 2025-11-17T12:36:15Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ eliminating redundancy in the sentence about future approaches to Earth.
1322659040 2025-11-17T12:30:46Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ Adding in citation that documents the object will not be as close to Earth in future plotted approaches.
1322658744 2025-11-17T12:28:03Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ mentioned that this object will not be as close during future approaches. Will cite in the next edit.
1322658611 2025-11-17T12:26:56Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ added in the qualification that very close objects can have higher absolute magnitudes and still be seen by telescopes.
1322658095 2025-11-17T12:22:39Z Joe Cerniglia /* Orbital Elements */ correcting typo in commenting the earlier section. (Exclamation point had preceded the bracket.)
1322657983 2025-11-17T12:21:32Z Joe Cerniglia modifying where the commented code lies to effectuate better consolidation of the footnote for "ssdb2."
1322657800 2025-11-17T12:19:34Z Joe Cerniglia changing ref name to ssdb2 to effectuate a consolidation with the later section.
1322657601 2025-11-17T12:17:43Z Joe Cerniglia /* Orbit and Classification */ commenting out first reference to "ssdb2" to attempt a better consolidation with the citation in a preceding section.
1322657116 2025-11-17T12:13:00Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ adding in the exact measured absolute magnitude to the sentence on limiting magnitudes.
1322656935 2025-11-17T12:11:12Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ adding in new citation reference to the Zhao article using only the ref name tag, since the complete article is now cited in the Ephemerides section.
1322656805 2025-11-17T12:09:55Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ adding in citation of the Zhao article.
1322656718 2025-11-17T12:08:54Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ commenting out a citation to test out moving up the first mention of the academic article to an earlier section.
1322656551 2025-11-17T12:06:51Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ Added in some added detail about some possible limits on the detection of NEOs.
1322655650 2025-11-17T11:57:10Z Joe Cerniglia /* Automation and Manual Work */ changing "the" ===> "a" since the relay is presumably one of others at their observatory or in the world.
1322653474 2025-11-17T11:33:46Z Joe Cerniglia Clarifying the date on which the MPC circular was issued.
1322653371 2025-11-17T11:32:36Z Joe Cerniglia Changed the verb in the second paragraph from passive to active voice.
1322652477 2025-11-17T11:23:22Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ minor spacing and wording change to improve on the last edit.
1322652376 2025-11-17T11:22:23Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ After further checking, I found that the specific telescope (among many) used at Haleakala Observatory was not the specific one used to observe 2025 UC11. I am removing the text here that was in error.
1322648247 2025-11-17T10:41:20Z Joe Cerniglia /* External links */ added "and other planets" to the external reference on close approaches.
1322647651 2025-11-17T10:35:35Z Joe Cerniglia Uppercasing "au" where needed for consistency.

1322646431 2025-11-17T10:21:31Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ The sentence in the first paragraph had no ending after the previous edit. Added "synthetic tracking regimen."
1322646238 2025-11-17T10:19:40Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ removed the phrase "helped to advance some of the techniques used in synthetic tracking, and they." It should be obvious from the fairly encyclopedic text preceding this paragraph that the astronomers have done this. All else is probably just boosterism.
1322646121 2025-11-17T10:18:13Z Joe Cerniglia removed a stray "/" from the text of the planet Infobox.
1322645954 2025-11-17T10:16:37Z Joe Cerniglia /* Type of Orbit */ changed "we" ==> "one". Used the verb "ascertain" because it seems a better choice than "look at."
1322645590 2025-11-17T10:13:00Z Joe Cerniglia Moving the section titled "Ephemerides" further down for better flow. The section identifying the discovery process should follow on directly after the Intro.
1322591974 2025-11-17T01:54:24Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ putting in more complete phrasing to describe the accuracy of ephemerides.
1322589934 2025-11-17T01:40:54Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ "the" ==> "an"
1322589072 2025-11-17T01:34:56Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ introduced some Wikipedia links to help better explain the terms.
1322587648 2025-11-17T01:24:50Z Joe Cerniglia /* Adoption by Other Observatories */ included hyperlink to Wikipedia for Catalina Sky Survey.

1322581726 2025-11-17T00:54:30Z Joe Cerniglia /* Test Trials, Automation, and Manual Work in Synthetic Tracking */ trying out more subheadings.
1322576405 2025-11-17T00:20:41Z Joe Cerniglia /* Test Trials, Automation, and Manual Work in Synthetic Tracking */ "subsequent to" ==> "after"
1322576155 2025-11-17T00:19:05Z Joe Cerniglia /* Test Trials, Automation, and Manual Work in Synthetic Tracking */ cannot be automated ==> are not automated. It's more neutral; additionally, I cannot know what can or cannot be automated, since that is beyond the scope of the article..
1322575437 2025-11-17T00:15:12Z Joe Cerniglia /* Test Trials, Automation, and Manual Work in Synthetic Tracking */ removing phrase describing the U68 telescope as the discoverer, since that is already mentioned in the Intro to the section on Synthetic Tracking.
1322575089 2025-11-17T00:12:53Z Joe Cerniglia /* Advances in Synthetic Tracking */ testing out new heading title.
1322574599 2025-11-17T00:09:35Z Joe Cerniglia /* Characterizing {{mp|2025 UC|11}} with Synthetic Tracking */ re-working the first paragraph a bit.

1322571091 2025-11-16T23:47:30Z Joe Cerniglia /* External links */ removed date from one of the external links because it is updated daily and is not tied to a specific date.
1322570268 2025-11-16T23:41:56Z Joe Cerniglia added second author to the meteoroid definition paper.
1322553593 2025-11-16T21:49:07Z Joe Cerniglia /* Background Noise */ extra citation added stacking of images in synthetic tracking.
1322552277 2025-11-16T21:40:43Z Joe Cerniglia /* Characterizing {{mp|2025 UC|11}} with Synthetic Tracking */ added a comma.
1322552171 2025-11-16T21:40:07Z Joe Cerniglia /* Characterizing {{mp|2025 UC|11}} with Synthetic Tracking */ toned down a bit of the puffery in this section. The telescope is discussed with greater neutrality while detracting not at all from the sense that was formerly conveyed.
1322550792 2025-11-16T21:30:45Z Joe Cerniglia /* Glossary {{Anchor|glossary}} */ added author to opposition definition in the Glossary.

1322543304 2025-11-16T20:45:13Z Joe Cerniglia /* Type of Orbit */ "signify"==>"have"
1322541884 2025-11-16T20:36:37Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ Rather than letting an almost certain typo in Navtej Singh's name be perpetuated in a citation, I am correcting it in the actual citation, and in furtherance of consistency.
1322540651 2025-11-16T20:28:33Z Joe Cerniglia filling out Close-Approach Database API citation.

1321763273 2025-11-12T14:36:08Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ taking out the Wikipedia link because the page does not exist.
1321763068 2025-11-12T14:34:13Z Joe Cerniglia /* Ephemerides */ using the word "perigee" instead of close approaches. "Close" is too relative a term.
1321762004 2025-11-12T14:26:30Z Joe Cerniglia /* Notable Characteristics */ translating 3 feet to meters to be a bit more consistent with the more precise measurements supplied above.
1321761325 2025-11-12T14:22:00Z Joe Cerniglia Testing out making "Ephimerides" into its own section, for 2 reasons: 1) It's an interesting topic and needs some separation from the Intro; 2) It makes the Intro look a little bit less crowded.
1321755316 2025-11-12T13:30:55Z Joe Cerniglia Moving the current 3rd paragraph to the end of the introduction. It seems to improve the logical progression (continuity) of the paragraphs

1321746330 2025-11-12T11:50:50Z Joe Cerniglia citing "closest and smallest." Requires citation.
1321744493 2025-11-12T11:28:09Z Joe Cerniglia /* Notable Characteristics */ changing "estimates" to "predicts." The size is a prediction, considered to be the most reliable available for classification purposes.

1321742553 2025-11-12T11:06:08Z Joe Cerniglia adding in extra qualifier to the lead: "known." While it does not add extra information, it does make it more clear that there are closer and smaller objects approaching all the time, but they are not "known."
1321729659 2025-11-12T08:30:34Z Joe Cerniglia adding in further explanatory text about orbital elements vs. ephemerides
1321729035 2025-11-12T08:21:00Z Joe Cerniglia /* Notable Characteristics */ I overstated the long-term value of ephemerides, so I am removing this paragraph.

1321728566 2025-11-12T08:14:33Z Joe Cerniglia removing the text in the infobox about "awaiting confirmation." The discoverer is as good as it will be known. See revisions to the "formal discoverer" section for a more complete explanation

1321662936 2025-11-11T22:20:47Z Joe Cerniglia removing the claim about 2025 UC11 as the smallest item in the CNEO database. I think it's true, but it's needlessly argumentative.
1321662134 2025-11-11T22:14:12Z Joe Cerniglia qualifying the claims about the NEO database even further.
1321661907 2025-11-11T22:12:05Z Joe Cerniglia removing the vague word "tracked."

1321661537 2025-11-11T22:09:11Z Joe Cerniglia toning down the words in the second paragraph that use the word "only." I believe that word was defensible, but it is a battle that does not need to be fought.
1321658556 2025-11-11T21:47:31Z Joe Cerniglia deduplicated the word "whose"
1321658458 2025-11-11T21:46:54Z Joe Cerniglia revised the slightly awkward phrase "diametric range" to be "range of diameters"
1321653001 2025-11-11T21:02:33Z Joe Cerniglia moving the Horizons app, which has ephemerides, into the beginning of the second paragraph, where it's most needed. Also adding in mention of the fact that the object has accompanying ephemerides.
1321652178 2025-11-11T20:56:03Z Joe Cerniglia moving the citation to the end of the sentence, so that it can bracket the complete thought.

1321651493 2025-11-11T20:50:31Z Joe Cerniglia The second paragraph was getting bloated, distracting and argumentative. It was all true, but I am trimming it.

1321435250 2025-11-10T14:36:32Z Joe Cerniglia By the standards of the MPC, I can see now that 2025 UC11 does not have what astronomers would consider a proper name; rather, it's a provisional designation.
1321414292 2025-11-10T11:19:00Z Joe Cerniglia /* Characterizing 2025 UC11 with Synthetic Tracking */ split the sentence about Haleakala Observatory into two sentences for better flow.

1321235125 2025-11-09T13:12:44Z Joe Cerniglia /* Notable Characteristics */ changed the adjective "close" to the adverbial "more closely to Earth" since close modifies a verb, which an adjective cannot do.
1321233797 2025-11-09T13:00:56Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ changed "that" to "which". "Which" should be used when it is preceded by a comma.

1321231701 2025-11-09T12:42:04Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ changed "methodologies" to "regime," a word the study authors also use in their article.
1321231546 2025-11-09T12:40:38Z Joe Cerniglia /* Synthetic Tracking of Near-Earth Objects */ subject-verb agreement, changed "has" to "have," and reworded the specific case of Haleakala Observatory in the later part of the sentence
