 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment Suggest withdrawing and waiting for Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Astronomy to come to a conclusion, then re-nominating if required. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 20:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. The name could be improved, but the subject-matter looks as encyclopaedic as that of List of Russian exonyms. Narky Blert (talk) 13:06, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. I do not see anything inherently problematic with such lists to warrant deletion. The criteria for selection are well defined, and list can be made sufficiently complete. The country was one of the important participants in space exploration. The template "names in space" (at the bottom of the page) also seem to be reasonable and connects such lists.

 * Keep: I agree with My very best wishes. This list actually has more items than most of the other "(Country) names in space" lists, so it's not clear why the nominator would choose this particular list for deletion, rather than one of the other sixteen. It seems arbitrary to me. — Toughpigs (talk) 05:37, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep The article clearly passes WP:GNG and WP:LIST so there's no reason for deletion. The naming seems a bit odd to me, but it's not a reason for deletion. Less Unless (talk) 11:29, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
