Comprehensive but not easy to navigate.

[edit]

This is certainly a comprehensive list, but on my tablet it was difficult to scroll through. Can this be improved upon? Richard Nowell (talk) 17:42, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've considered dividing into sections, and added an extra navigation section at the top, but I understand your issue with navigating through the article as a whole. I might be inclined to break it up if that's generally in everyone' best interest. exoplanetaryscience (talk) 13:53, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Split - Article is over 600 kB and therefore should be split. --Jax 0677 (talk) 22:26, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in the process of doing it, just slowly. I've already put parts of it into List of numbered comets, List of periodic comets, and List of non-periodic comets. exoplanetaryscience (talk) 23:48, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

someone make collapsible lists

[edit]

You know, with [Hide] and [Show] buttons. Just a suggestion. Huritisho (talk) 19:07, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh, I'll do it Huritisho (talk) 19:13, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page length

[edit]

At 600,549 bytes at the time of writing, this page is too long. What's the best way to split it? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:04, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support split per exoplanetaryscience's suggestions, with {{See also}}s to each split-off article at the top of each split-off article.   ~ Tom.Reding (talkdgaf)  14:17, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
 Done It's down to 38k, and while I probably could split out some of the remaining longish lists, that would require actually creating pages as opposed to copy/pasting/updating existing lists. Primefac (talk) 15:45, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
