• 02:1002:10, 20 June 2022 diff hist +47 Proxima Centauri I agree with @Tarl N., and as such made the explanation of exoplanet naming a footnote! Also clarified that the described convention applies only to extrasolar planets.

• 03:3803:38, 18 June 2022 diff hist +9 Proxima Centauri d Undid revision 1091588112 by Historical Trains (talk). Proxima d was not confirmed in 2022; that was the year it was formally proposed as a candidate (the paper describes it as a candidate). For example, in the second paragraph of section 6 (page 9), the authors discuss the signal as "attribute[d] to a planet candidate, Proxima d". Also, confirmation usually must be done by a different team than the discoverers. :) Tag: Undo

• 23:4823:48, 20 May 2022 diff hist +23 List of nearest exoplanets Added a date to a graphic that has not been updated with new planet discoveries and slightly reworded it for clarity (originally "Distribution of nearest exoplanets").
• 23:4223:42, 20 May 2022 diff hist −256 List of nearest exoplanets →Exoplanets within 10 parsecs: Rearranged Proxima Centauri's planets in the correct order ([d, b, c] instead of [b, c, d]).

16 May 2022

• 03:3603:36, 16 May 2022 diff hist +331 List of nearest exoplanets →Exoplanets within 10 parsecs: Fixed a whole bunch of errors in data entry - while the displayed values seem correct, the internal sorting values were often off, with misplaced decimal points and occasional "nines" replacing zeroes whenever a minimum mass was reported. This caused the table to sort improperly for certain values. There may be more - I mostly just focused on the masses!

• 03:1903:19, 14 May 2022 diff hist +10 Alpha Centauri Clarified that Proxima Centauri d is still a candidate exoplanet (it has not been independently confirmed yet)
• 03:1303:13, 14 May 2022 diff hist +8 Proxima Centauri d Clarified that Proxima d is a candidate exoplanet (it has not been verified by another team or independent observations yet) and corrected the image description (the two objects in the background are Alpha Centauri A and B, not Proxima b and c).
