Suggested Enhancements to this article from a reader

Perhaps an image of the specialist camera and or the camera CCD would enhance this article.

When operational, perhaps an image of the moon (only half a degree wide) or a section of sky comparing with a standard pixel camera image to illustrate the resolution power of the camera for a non-science reader. Possibly also a comparison of images that highlights the spectral resolution (color resolution) of the camera.

I think also an explanatory comment on why this sky survey is useful in astronomical terms. What progression of knowledge is expected to be gained from this project.

independent references

None of the current references are independent, since they all appear to be written or published by ANU. Peer-review is not a magic wand for independence, as per WP:RS. Stuartyeates (talk) 06:31, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

There are currently two references: both are peer-reviewed articles in academic journals. They are cited for verification of technical details about the system, which is a standard, acceptable use of primary sources. Iridia (talk) 07:44, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
There usage is acceptable for verification of technical details. There usage is not acceptable for demonstrating that the topic meets the WP:GNG, which talks about "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Stuartyeates (talk) 08:09, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for adding the independent refs, it's now clearly notable as far as I'm concerned. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:18, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
No worries. Iridia (talk) 09:30, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
