Editing Main sequence (section)

=== Sample parameters ===
The table below shows typical values for stars along the main sequence. The values of [[luminosity]] (''L''), [[radius]] (''R''), and [[mass]] (''M'') are relative to the Sun—a dwarf star with a spectral classification of G2&nbsp;V. The actual values for a star may vary by as much as 20–30% from the values listed below.<ref name=siess00/>{{Why|date=December 2023}}

<!-- Please include a solid reference if you add additional values to this table. -->
