I love the post and am a big fan of Johannes Kepler but was a bit disappointed that his name was spelt wrongly throughout. Is it hard to change?

This isn't an Edited Guide Entry. It's someone's personal writings, not anything official. In other words, I, as a curator, can't change it: only the original author can change it. (S)he might, if (s)he's still around.
The Editors could change it: they can change anything. But they won't. They only remove or edit stuff that is breaking the <./>HouseRules</.>.

Fluffy: editorial changes should be made at <./>Feedback-Editorial</.>.
Incidentally, a search at <./>Search?searchtype=article&showapproved=1&searchstring=kepler+motion</.> shows that there is no edited version of this entry. Does anyone feel like putting it through PeerReview?

U154086 last posted February 2003, so is unlikely to change this now.

I wouldn't mind writing an Entry on Kepler and his laws, but I wouldn't use this one as a starting point, I'd write it from scratch. I'm not going to do in the next few weeks, though, so anybody else is welcome to do it.

Thanks for your messages! I'm happy for you guys to put the article through peer review - I'm not sure I would know where to start! But I'll be looking forward to seeing it turned into an "official" article...
All the best,
Alex
