This seems like a completely random selection of statistics, not something discussed as a group as such? Fram (talk) 09:16, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, keep. Why is this list any less desirable than all the other articles titled "Orders of magnitude (quantity)"? "completely random selection of statistics, not something discussed as a group as such"? In that case, i wouldn't say no to rewriting the article. However, is the list of data on this article, any more random than the data on other "Orders of magnitude" articles; and if so, how? Solomonfromfinland (talk) 09:21, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. And I see that e.g. for length, we have named, systematic orders of magnitude: here, we don't seem to have anything comparable. Fram (talk) 09:45, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Nobody uses angular frequency with respect to any orbital quantity AFAIK, certainly not in the Sun and Earth "references". This is implicit in the note, which has to explain how the numbers are calculated.Clarityfiend (talk) 10:43, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. All the examples in the table, to my knowledge, are more often described in terms of their period or frequency (not angular frequency). I have never seen this use case in planetary science, or indeed any use case for quantities not close in magnitude to unity (since all SI prefixes are applied only to Hz). Additionally, since 1 Hz = 2π rad/s, orders of magnitude for angular frequency will always be the same or different by 1 with respect to orders of magnitude for frequency, so in that sense the new article is a content fork of Orders of magnitude (frequency). Perhaps a redirect there could be an alternative to deletion, but given the absence of named orders of magnitude for angular frequency, I'm not totally convinced of the usefulness of such a redirect. ^Complex/_Rational 13:20, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as stated above. ‹hamster717🐉› ^{(discuss anything!🐹✈️ • my contribs🌌🌠)} 02:12, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as essentially redundant with Orders of magnitude (frequency) (which includes comparable entries such as the Earth's orbital frequency and a galactic year). Praemonitus (talk) 16:32, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
