[edit]I notice you've edited a number of articles on exoplanets given proper names through NameExoWorlds to change almost every instance of their designation to their proper name. Please don't do this; in most cases the designation is the more common name which is why it's the article title. If you think the proper name should be the article title you can open a move request, though I'd note there's already general consensus against this. SevenSpheres (talk) 14:51, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- The only reason the designation is more common is because the official names aren't used. That's what I'm trying to change. I'll stop, but I don't agree with it. Kypickle (talk) 15:11, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- Not sure where the Wikipedia: namespace page about this is, but if you want to change something editing Wikipedia isn't the way to do it. I have seen some exoplanet names being used by sources outside of the IAU, usually along with the designation, but even for many stars with traditional names the designation is more common.

- alright, i had an idea
- (sorry it took me so long to respond, I forgot lol)
- so I agree with you now, we should keep the code name designation in the article, but also I think the proper name should be represented a bit more, so I had an idea
- How about at the planet box at the top, where it says the planet's name (not the title, the box at the side where it says information about the planet) and, for example, instead of saying just "55 cancri e" we said 55 Cancri e / Janssen? that way, the more common designation can still be used, but the proper name is also given more representation, since both names are equally official according to the IAU and should be treated as such. Kypickle (talk) 20:22, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- so essentially what I want is at the planet box where it says the name of the planet and information about it, there should be the "code" name as well as the proper name, with a slash in the middle to separate them. Alternatively, we could use parenthesis, like this:
- 55 Cancri e (Janssen)
- but i thought this design wasn't as good as it didn't make it seem like both names were equal. Also, I wouldn't change anything else, and the article itself would still use the more common designation. So, whatever name is more common will be used in the article itself, but both names will be represented without having to change the article title. Kypickle (talk) 20:25, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
