I use WIKI 2 every day and almost forgot how the original Wikipedia looks like.
What we do. Every page goes through several hundred of perfecting techniques; in live mode. Quite the same Wikipedia. Just better.
Great Wikipedia has got greater.

NGC 2613 is a spiral galaxy in the southern constellation of Pyxis, next to the western constellation border with Puppis. It was discovered by the German-born astronomer William Herschel on November 20, 1784.[8] With an apparent visual magnitude of 10.5, the galaxy is faintly visible using a telescope with a 100 mm (4 in) aperture. It appears spindle-shaped as it is almost edge-on to observers on Earth.[9]

The morphological classification of NGC 2613 is SA(s)b,[4] indicating a spiral galaxy with no bar or ring, and moderately tightly-wound spiral arms. It is inclined by an angle of approximately 79° to the line of sight from the Earth[5] and is oriented with the long axis along a position angle of 133°.[4] The radius of neutral hydrogen in the galaxy is about 35 kpc,[10] and the mass of the neutral hydrogen is (8.73±0.32)×109 M☉. The galaxy has a combined dynamic mass of (7.50±0.87)×1011 M☉.[5]

NGC 2613 has an active galactic nucleus that is deeply embedded in obscuring gas and dust.[5] Emission data collected by the Very Large Array shows a feature resembling a tidal tail along the southeast side of the galaxy, which was most likely produced by an interaction with the small companion galaxy, ESO 495-G017, now located to the northwest of NGC 2613.[10]

On 20 March 2023, a supernova was observed in NGC 2613: SN 2023dtc (Type Ib, mag. 18).[11]
