Detection of Lithium[edit]
The detection of Lithium in this nova is no first. In Classical nova explosions are major lithium factories in the universe, the discovery of Lithium is reported in Nova Delphi 2013, which occured in August 2013. The report was published in February 2015, before the study about Nova Centauri 2013. The source is mistaken.Renerpho (talk) 03:19, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
- The detection in Nova Delphi 2013 was a detection of Beryllium 7, which decays to Lithium 7. So production of Lithium was inferred from the presence of Beryllium 7. However an actual spectral transition of Lithium itself was seen in Nova Centauri 2013, so I think the claim in the article is technically correct.[1]PopePompus (talk) 04:29, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Nova Centauri 2013 → V1369 Centauri – Most of the other articles on novae are named by the variable star designation, rather than the "Nova (constellation) (year)" format. I believe the Wikipedia articles about novae should be named in a consistent manner. The variable star designation is almost universally used in astronomical literature. Also, the "Nova (constellation) (year)" naming convention is not used consistently when there is more than one nova within a particular constellation during a single year (you will see "Nova Scorpii 2007 #1", "Nova Scorpii 2007 A", etc), but the variable star designation is unambiguous. I realize there is already a redirect page, but I think that's a kludgy solution, because the title of the page remains nonstandard, according to WP:STARNAMES, preference #4.
