Template:Astro list redirect comment/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Description

[edit]

This template, {{Astro list redirect comment}} is used on all redirects of minor-planet discovering astronomers, observatories and programs, including both observing astrometricist and photometrists, who are often, but not always, discoverers of minor planets and/or their companions. These astronomers and observatories – often amateurs and private, respectively – typically do not merit a stand-alone biography article due to lack of notability, or, there is simply not enough information available for a stub. The {{ambox|type=content}} message box ensures that editors can see the message prior to editing the redirect page.

Redirect targets

[edit]
  • If the astronomer is also a discoverer, the redirect should point to the corresponding entry in the List of minor planet discoverers.
  • If the astronomer is not a discoverer, but has a minor planet named after them, the redirect should target the corresponding naming citation given in one of the partial lists of the Meanings of minor planet names.
  • For discovering observatories and programs with MPC/IAU code and other minor-planet observing astronomers (photometrists) their private observatory listed in List of observatory codes may be targeted.

Features

[edit]
  • The comment box emphasizes these notability issues early on. It is thought to reduce the workload on administrators and editors at WP:SOLAR, as a large number of these articles have been deleted in the past.

  • This template also includes the standard templates for a redirect to an anchored list, which are displayed in a formatted manner after the above comment box.

Usage

[edit]
Primary redirects

{{Astro list redirect comment}} produces the following comment and text describing the redirect.

Secondary redirects

For secondary redirects on alternative versions of the discovering astronomer's name, use: {{Astro list redirect comment|do-not-cat=yes}}. This replaces the default comment above with:

In addition, secondary redirects always display a {{R avoided double redirect}} and other appropriate templates (see § Example).

Default redirect templates

[edit]

The default minor planet redirect templates, {{R to anchor}}, {{R to list entry}}, and {{R unprintworthy}} are all automatically included.

The default R-templates can be turned off using |r-templates=off

Non-standard redirect templates

[edit]

If/when adding additional templates to individual redirects, please add them above {{Astro list redirect comment}}, maintaining the blank line. This will put the non-standard R-template(s) at the top of the page, separating them from the standard R-templates below, making them easier to see.

Examples

[edit]

This redirect example is for the Czech amateur astronomer Jan Karel Mánek (born 1961), who is credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery of one numbered asteroid only. A secondary #R exists for Jan Manek and uses the parameter |do-not-cat=, to avoid redundant categorization.

Primary #R
#REDIRECT [[List of minor planet discoverers#J. Manek]]

{{Astro list redirect comment}}

{{DEFAULTSORT:Manek, Jan Karel}}
[[Category:Discoverers of minor planets]]
Secondary #R
#REDIRECT [[List of minor planet discoverers#J. Manek]]

{{Redirect shell|
{{R avoided double redirect|Jan Karel Mánek}}
{{R to diacritics}}
}}
{{Astro list redirect comment|do-not-cat=yes}}

This secondary #R also uses {{R to diacritics}}, while others may need {{R from short name}} for a versions with an abbreviated first name.

Observatories and programs
#REDIRECT [[List of observatory codes#A77]]

{{Astro list redirect comment}}

{{DEFAULTSORT:Chante-Perdrix Observatory}}
[[Category:Minor-planet discovering observatories]]

The target of redirects of minor-planet observing and discovering observatories and programs such as astronomical surveys and collaborations, should point to the List of observatory codes with its MPC/IAU-code as an anchor (in the example above the code is (A77)).
