I did not find any traditional name for this star after looking into several sources (the IAU, Jim Kaler, Richard Hinckley Allen, Antonin Becvar and Bode's Uranographia). If the name keeps being unsourced, I will remove it. Eynar Oxartum ( talk) 06:55, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
If there are 2 "secondaries", is this properly termed a "binary" system? What am I missing, here? I don't claim to any fluency in astronomy, and I don't remember ever hearing a system described as "trinary", but binary indicates 2, and only 2, right? rags ( talk) 11:34, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
≤== Triple-system or quadruple-system? ==
The article describes 4 stars: Aa Ab B C
4 does not equal 3, therefore this cannot be a triple-system. I'm assuming the "fainter companion" is B but C is not mentioned until the end of the article. What's going on here? AnyOldBiscuit ( talk) 08:25, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
