Number of moons inconsistency

[edit]

"Uranus's 28 natural satellites include 18 known regular moons, ... at a much greater distance from Uranus are the nine known irregular moons."

18 plus 9 does not equal 28; this discrepancy should be addressed. Do "Regular moons" and "Irregular moons" not partition the set of "moons"? (Are there moons which are both regular and irregular? Are there moons which are neither?)

It's because for a long while it was 27 and everyone forgot to update this line when a tenth irregular moon was discovered. :) Fixed by changing "nine" to "ten". Double sharp (talk) 03:01, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
