Talk:The sun

Day length?
Anyone else find the fact that the object responsible for day/night in the universe has a listed day length? How do you define a day on the Sun? How often it's surface rotates? 09:55, November 09, 2020 (UTC)

Sun or The sun?
Now I actually think that it would be important enough to put this under Sun (also having two articles linking to the stellar body and one to the coin), instead of having the redirect to Sun (coin) there. Or should we have the disambiguation at Sun? Daranios (talk) 20:08, May 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * Is there a specific name for the sun? Perhaps in Realmspace sources? — BadCatMan (talk) 00:22, May 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * I don't think there is. The Spelljammer campaign setting Adventures in Space explicitely says under "Realmspace": "Primary: The Sun - Sun, Sol, and variant definitions of a fire-body primary are common through half a hundred known spheres. This is an indicator that the dominant human civilizations may come from a common root." Daranios (talk) 09:32, May 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * Okay. It looks like Realmspace (sourcebook) also just calls it "the Sun". With that, I think the Sun would be the most appropriate name for this article. It's okay to include a "the", like in the Vast, as it will always be linked to with it. — BadCatMan (talk) 11:10, May 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * Okay, so I will make Sun a disambiguation page. Thanks for the input! Daranios (talk) 11:18, May 29, 2016 (UTC)

Abeiran Sun
According to Ashes of the Tyrant, the Sun in Abeir is blue. Since the Abeiran sun is Torilian's sun twin (as Abeir was created way after Realmspace was created by Ao), should we mention this in the article? Or is better to create an article for Abeiran sun?--Zeromaru X 03:13, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the input! I think a mention here of the sun's Abeiran twin would be nice. I don't have any material about Abeir, so I don't know if there is enough material for a separate article, but if there is it would be nice to have a link here. Daranios (talk) 20:31, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, there is only a line mentioning that in the novel, saying that the sun in Abeir was blue and the sky the color of steel. Nothing more. Is too short for a complete article, so I put that in Abeir's article.--Zeromaru X 21:48, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Nice solution. I have added a mention of Abeir's sun at the sun disambiguation page. Daranios (talk) 20:03, December 29, 2016 (UTC)
