User:Rfassbind/Minor planet redirects of non-exsitent articles

This page lists all created #REDIRECTs of minor planets for which no article on wikipedia previously existed. They point to their corresponding entry in the List of minor planets, and contain the standard templates, categories and slightly modified html comment a NASTRO comment (notification about WP:NASTRO), as described here. For example, the redirect page has been created with this standard content (edit view).

The aim is to avoid future inconsistencies by creating redirects with their correct name and aliases (e.g non-diacritical versions, such as for ) and complete categorization (including discoverers, the mp-categorization and corresponding sort-keys). While I do make mistakes, I have created a number of checks to minimize them.

All newly created redirects are: Upon naming
 * 1) in line with Tom.Reding's revision of already existing redirects.
 * 2) only made for numbered and named minor planets, and not for those without a name, since they would have to be moved/renamed as soon as being named anyway, probably creating more inconsistencies than avoiding in the first place.
 * 3) the scope is from number 1 up to 454,000, i.e all existing pages of the List of minor planets as of spring 2016.
 * 4) separately listed by  monthly published M.P.C batch on a dedicated project page for  (e.g. MPC batch 4 Nov 2017).
 * 5) redirects are created using this semi-automated online tool.
 * A redirect and its talk page is created
 * Alternatively, an existing redirect/article is moved (and content is adjusted to its new name), -tag in batch list
 * A secondary redirect is created for names with diacritics
 * The corresponding partial List of minor planets (LoMP) is updated with the new name
 * The partial List of named minor planets (alphabetical) and List of named minor planets (numerical) are update
 * The partial list of Meanings of minor planet names ((MoMP) is updated, and naming-citation is added
 * LoMP and MoMP are cross-references with each other, using and

Some listed redirects are tagged with "LCDB", such as for. This means, that LCDB contains physical information, often complementary to JPL's website. For such bodies, LCDB also provides a calculated diameter, an assumed albedo and spectral type, and a family/group/category classification.

For all created redirects, a talk-page with the standard banners is also created (also see Tom's guidelines about that). For non-diacritical aliases a redirect to the diacritical version is added, e.g..

List of redirects
This is a summary of all named minor planet redirects I created during Winter 2015/2016 (until and including all newly named bodies in the 22 February 2016 M.P.C. release) with the goal that each and every named minor planet will at least link to the list of minor planets on Wikipedia. This initial batch created 3,620 redirects (i.e. about 18% of all minor planets with a name were missing on Wikipedia at that time).

For all redirects created after this initial batch, see .


 * Minor planets with numbers above 200,000 are listed without the usage of subpages in the List of minor planets. (The subpage issue was fixed in April 2016) This needs to be considered for the anchor of all redirects since they do not point to the correct section . Therefore redirects are generally not made for these bodies (anchors added by Tom as per March 2016).

Updates since March 2016
Created redirects of minor planets, since the initial batch of 3,620 MP#Rs (see above).

Redirects from incorrect names
JPL Small-Body Database Browser not only lacks diacritical marks for named minor planet, but also seems to ignore any published "errata" corrections made in the Minor Planet Circulars (M.P.C.). Example:


 * vs.

The misspelled minor planet names at JPL need to have their own #REDIRECT on wikipedia to prevent any potential confusion (after all, the JPL database is the most cited source for minor planets). Please follow Tom's guideline for double redirects & improperly named asteroids.

Increased complexity due to diacritcal marks
This is an example for the minor planet. In the original Minor Planet Circular (M.P.C. 75105), the citation reads (215044) Joõalves. This was later corrected to (215044) Joãoalves in the errata section of M.P.C. 75107. Due to this simple (and often occuring) mistake, there are now 4 versions needed on wikipedia: Since the correct version is redirected to the "List of minor planets", the other 3 versions need an R avoided double redirect template, as well as a R to list entry, a R to anchor and a R unprintworthy template. Moreover, the talk-pages of the 3 redirected versions need to point to Talk:215044 Joãoalves. Alternatively, these talk-pages could be synched with their corresponding pages and point to the List of minor planets, which is, however, a page composed of (deprecated) subpages. This seems not very helpful.
 * , the correct version. Displayed in Discovery Circumstances: Numbered Minor Planets (215001)-(220000).
 * , the wrong version, still displayed in MPC's object-view. The redirected page needs a R from incorrect name template.
 * , the non-diacritical standard version. Also displayed in MPC's object view. The redirected page needs a R from title without diacritics template.
 * , the wrong and non-diacritcal version, which is still displayed in JPL Small-Body Database Browser.

But this is not the end, as other versions, such as the non-standard parenthetical version (215044) Joãoalves can also be thought of (in fact, most low-numbered minor planets have such a redirected). Basically, the total number of possible versions doubles with each additional variation, i.e a parenthetical version is possible for all 4 of the above listed versions, resulting in a total of 8 versions. This, of course is absurd, isn't it?! If not, then why are misspelled version not deleted...???. If non-spaced versions were added, the total number would double from 8 to 16...

Redirects from previously deleted articles
Some wikipedia articles had been previously deleted (see here). Articles for provisionally designated minor planets (i.e. unnamed ones) are not considered for redirects (in analogy to the list of minor planets where only named entries are linked by default).

LOMP revision
Project page for changes made on the List of minor planets (LOMP) with its partial list pages.

Change MP#Rs

 * The partial list in the List of minor planets now contains for each entry an individual anchor. Minor planet redirects (of non-notable bodies) to the list can now point to their corresponding entry.
 * using Template:NASTRO comment with parameter / parameter value  substitutes for the R to list entry and R to anchor template as well as for the HTML-comment

Secondary non-diacritical MP#R revision
This task revises a subset of about 1000 redirects to minor planet objects. The subset includes all latinized (secondary) redirects to minor planets that have a name containing diacritical marks.

Created categories (Discoveries by...)
Recently created Discoverer-categories, mostly by.

Potential categories (Discoveries by...)
This is a near-complete list (at least 95%) of 342 (for now) missing discoverer categories, based on the current MPs found on WP. This is a reference: not all warrant creation (i.e. if someone discovered only 1 MP, maybe 2), and duplicates may exist if multiple names are used for the same discoverer. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 16:30, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
