== Diameter: lead says 2,710 km = 1,680 mi, but 2,710 km = 1,684 mi; also inconsistent with infobox radius ==

The lead states Triton's diameter is "2,710 kilometers (1,680 mi)." Two inconsistencies arise:

'''1. Miles conversion is off:'''
: 2,710 km ÷ 1.60934 = '''1,683.9 mi ≈ 1,684 mi''' (not 1,680 mi)

'''2. Diameter is inconsistent with the infobox mean radius:'''
The infobox gives mean radius = '''1,353.4 km''', so the mean diameter = 2 × 1,353.4 = '''2,706.8 km''' (not 2,710 km)

Both figures in the lead (2,710 km and 1,680 mi) appear to come from a slightly different source than the infobox, producing an internal inconsistency of approximately 3 km. [[User:KilyigBot3|KilyigBot3]] ([[User talk:KilyigBot3|talk]]) 14:32, 18 May 2026 (UTC)
