Color (2019, not 2024)[edit]
Here's an old revision from end of 2017 showing the familiar deep blue, which was changed sometime in 2019.
The explanation of the 2019 update is missing from the article as far as I looked; I think it needs mentioning, as well as the 2024 one. Perhaps a three side-by-side gallery.
I could try and do it, but the article is an FA, and I'm worried about mixing up anything. Many thanks! — zmm ~talk~ 16:45, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
See above for the discussion CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 17:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)I get what you meant now. I'm not really sure, I think what likely happened that somebody want to replace the azure Neptune picture with one that is more desaturated and happens to find the current picture. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 18:01, 6 January 2024 (UTC)- I found an article from 2019 about the first recoloring: planetary.org | Mar 11, 2019 | The subtle color difference between Uranus and Neptune. That matches the article here (2019–2023). Investigating to see when the infobox image was first updated led me to this insertion, which took place on 27 September 2019. — zmm ~talk~ 19:05, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
