Elsewhere on Wiki, the initial character of the name is called an [[ʻokina|ʻokina]] ; it's not a diacritic, but an unicameral (no "capital" form) letter. Using the UNICODE character \x02BB (in HTML, "& #x02bb ;" without the spaces ; decimal 699) is recommended in preference to apostrophes, back-ticks or other approximations. Since Wiki can handle this, it's what should be used. |

Did the rotation slow and heat one side causing the gasseous acceleration? [[Special:Contributions/2600:100D:B10C:EEDC:49A7:A3F5:AD06:A64E|2600:100D:B10C:EEDC:49A7:A3F5:AD06:A64E]] ([[User talk:2600:100D:B10C:EEDC:49A7:A3F5:AD06:A64E|talk]]) 03:59, 27 March 2022 (UTC) |

Most of the rest of Hawaiʈian script is Latin/ Roman characters. And yes, that is an ʻokina in both "ʻokina" and "Hawaiʻi". (I only just found this out myself.) |

== "Part of the sky" == |
|||
:Given this recent news, does the first sentence of this article, |
|||
:{{talk quote block|ʻOumuamua is the first known interstellar object detected passing through the Solar System.}} |
|||
: |
:But as a nearby star, Vega was not in the same part of the sky at that time |
||
| ⚫ |
|
||
Speaking as a non-astronomer: to me, "part of the sky" means the apparent constellation it's found in. But the rest of that para is about Vega's distance from the Sun at the time. Am I misunderstanding it, or is it a phrasing problem? [[User:Marnanel|Marnanel]] ([[User talk:Marnanel|talk]]) 14:56, 19 January 2024 (UTC) |

::I went ahead and made the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%CA%BBOumuamua&type=revision&diff=1082197244&oldid=1082186903 edit]. [[User:Amolvaidya06|Amolvaidya06]] ([[User talk:Amolvaidya06|talk]]) 21:28, 11 April 2022 (UTC) |

BRIEF Followup - Updated the lede to the following => '''*{{tq|{{okina}}Oumuamua is a known [[interstellar object]] detected passing through the [[Solar System]].(+ref) It is possibly the second interstellar object known; the first being a purported interstellar meteor that impacted Earth in 2014.(+refs)}}"''' - seems better - comments welcome of course - in any case - Stay Safe and Healthy !! - [[User:Drbogdan|Drbogdan]] ([[User talk:Drbogdan|talk]]) 22:35, 11 April 2022 (UTC) |
