-what, if any, of these images demonstrate the subject of this article? An image comparing the full moon at perigee and apogee would be good but these all just look like images of the full moon.--[[User:MadeYourReadThis|MadeYourReadThis]] ([[User talk:MadeYourReadThis|talk]]) 17:56, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
-:I agree, they do not really add anything to the article. --[[User:Lasunncty|Lasunncty]] ([[User talk:Lasunncty|talk]]) 12:22, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
-== Frequency ==
-This section has been removed because it is unreferenced original research, and incomplete at that.
-Additionally, there was no indication that this research took into account the fact that full moon's that occur ''near'' perigee per Nolle's definition (the closest thing to official we have) and its arbitrary selection of 90% of closest perigee to Earth in a solar year.  This second is incomplete since the difference between perigees and apogees yearly extreme vary by 49k-50k, the frequency of "supermoon" is not only impacted by the natural variation in the length of a lunar month but that same precession affects apsis.  But this too is original research and inappropriate for inclusion as a result.  The arbitrary selection of calculating based on 90% of the delta of yearly extremes in Nolle's definition make discussion of frequency solely in terms of precession moot.
-Bottom line, let's leave this aspect of the topic alone until it's covered in a reliable source that can be referenced.--[[User:MadeYourReadThis|MadeYourReadThis]] ([[User talk:MadeYourReadThis|talk]]) 13:29, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
-:I have restored one detail that is covered in the Espenak reference. --[[User:Lasunncty|Lasunncty]] ([[User talk:Lasunncty|talk]]) 12:22, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
