C/2015 F3 (SWAN)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The coverage is from databases, blogs, twitter posts, forums, some photos and the discovery announcement in CBET, and thus fails in WP:NASTCRIT, according to which multiple non-trivial published works, which contain significant commentary on the object are needed.

 * Redirect to List of periodic comets. There are a pair of discovery bulletins and it is mentioned briefly in Combi et al. (2021), but I don't see significant coverage. Praemonitus (talk) 13:35, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Praemonitus. There's one paper by Sekanina & Kracht (2016) and another ATel publication by Ferrin & Penuelas (2021) which both mention C/2015 F3 being part of a possible orbital grouping with disintegrated comets C/1988 A1 and C/1996 Q1, but other than that the coverage is limited. The disintegrated comet trio is interesting but is only worthy of a footnote to some broader topic like asteroid pair (that article needs work by the way, I'd appreciate it!).
