The discovery of quasars

https://www.astron-soc.in/bulletin/13March/001412013.pdf Bull. Astr. Soc. India (2013) 41, 1–17 The discovery of quasars K. I. Kellermann National Radio Astronomy Observatory, 520 Edgemont Road, Charlottesville, VA, 22901, US. A good historical perspective. I'd like to add a link to the article but not sure where. Hope an editor can do the necessary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.135.199.33 (talk) 14:42, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Quantity of Quasars

There are 2 different figures given for the number of detected quasars: 'more than a million' and 'more than 750,414'. Should one be changed to the other? 2A00:23C6:C14:301:483C:3AFF:B3:BF72 (talk) 18:50, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They are two different estimates from two different sources, so it's unclear which is more correct. Praemonitus (talk) 05:48, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
