Add image needed of Uranus seen from telescope to "Visibility on Earth" section

This information page of the planet needs an image showing how Uranus appears through a telescope in the night sky for learning purposes. Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn already have preview images from telescopes in the night sky.

Fortunately, there is an image of [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:UranusAndMoon_20221108_fromJP_(crop).jpg Uranus captured during a total lunar eclipse from November 2022], that could be placed on "Visibility on Earth" section.

Why is this article written in British English, and not American English?

Why is this article written in British English, and not American English? The United States is the largest English-speaking country in the world and the headquarters of Wikipedia are in the USA. Highpointer (talk) 06:32, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

:See MOS:ENGVAR. Wikipedia has no preference for a specific national variety. If an article started out in British English, which [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uranus&oldid=291963 this one did] (honour), then so it will remain. (And also if its subject has strong ties to any specific national standard, though I'd consider Uranus pretty international for all that a Brit discovered it.)

Length of Uranus's day

I presume both the sidereal day and the synodic rotation period increased relative to the measurements taken in the 1980s, but I didn't want to make an incorrect edit. This article reports it is now considered to be 17h 14m 52s.

Please change the rotation period in the infobox to match the new value in the text. Zerotalk 03:07, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
