I've listed this article for peer review because I wanted to see if it stands a chance as a GA candidate.

I'm not an astronomer, so some comments can be quite stupid.
They are extremely rare- can it be the case that our current technology doesn't allow to detect them? maybe not rare, but hard to detect?
with only half a dozen listed by the NASA Exoplanet Archive.- why not say "only seven listed"?
Thus, a disk needs to have a large mass if it is to give rise to planets.- is it different from any other planets? shouldn't protoplanetary disk of any star be massive to form a planet? if no, then the definition of "large mass" is needed.
"First generation" planetsbut then
"Second generation planets"and
"Third generation planets", I think quotes should be consistent.
None of the known pulsar planet systems are likely to have formed in this process., about the second gen -
There are no known examples of planets around young neutron stars.. There is nothing about three other types. What types are the identified planets?
The formation scenarios have consequences for the planets' composition: A planet formed ...- I would put a period instead of a colon, but I'm not a native speaker, so you can ignore it.
As of 2022, the most common type of neutron star planet is a "diamond planet"- how is it related to 5 types discussed above?
Pulsars are extremely precise clocks- maybe
Pulsars can serve as an extremely precise clocks?
the least massive known extrasolar planet (only 0.02 MEarth) is a pulsar planet- is there a name for it, or an article?
Pulsars are very small and thus the probability of a planet transiting in front of the pulsar - one potential way to image them - is very low.- I think it can better be said as
One potential way to image a planet is to detect its transition in front of the star: in case of pulsar planets, the probability of a planet transiting in front of pulsar is very low because of the small size of pulsars., or smth like that.
They are extremely rare- maybe we just can't detect them?
As of 2022 only half a dozen[c]- same comment as above - if you decided to stick to The NASA Exoplanet Archive, just say "seven planets"
Based on the known occurrence rate of pulsar planets, there might be as many as 10 millions of them in the Milky Way.[41]- again, I don't think it's "extremely rare" - maybe some comparison with ordinary planets can be useful here?
described as a " diamond planet".- diamond planet is a better link
of an asteroid[h] belt around the pulsars- move note after the "belt", and maybe link to asteroid belt
The white dwarf-pulsar binary- "dwarf-pulsar" puzzles me, but it's probably correct
These are all comments I have, hope they're useful. Article looks good to be submitted to GA - sources are good, and for such an obscure topic it looks solid. Artem.G ( talk) 15:29, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
