I don't think it meets WP:NASTRO or WP:GNG, and should be deleted or redirected to List of minor planets: 1001-2000. Boleyn (talk) 19:53, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep: It is a relatively large ~10 km Mars-crossing asteroid AND has a 375 hour rotation period. It has the 5th longest known rotation period for a Mars-crossing asteroid. -- Kheider (talk) 17:13, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. I found three studies of small groups of asteroids that covered this one  . Together with the unusual properties discussed above, this may be enough for notability. But I would be more confident in this if we could find sources that actually mention that it is unusually large for a Mars-crosser, or that it has a high rotation period (as we have for some other asteroids). Incidentally, the supposed long period is contradicted by one of these sources. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:20, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
