This list started as a whittled down form of Category:Numbered asteroids, after I added that category to all pages that required it, drawn from recursing Category:Minor planets 5 levels. Numbered asteroids > 10 000 were checked by me, and are mostly excluded (what makes this the shortlist). What I was unsure of is below, since they deviated ever so slightly from the typical bot-created/assisted articles. At creation, I have not looked at these asteroids < 10 000 closely. Since there are many more < 10 000 than > 10 000, please help!
I will probably add to this list as I go through the preliminary-designation asteroids.
I'm posting it here instead of WT:AST since it's similar in size and intent to the CarloscomB cleanup, which took a little more than 1.5 years to complete.
List filters were made based on prior consensus-approved criteria from the 1st round of minor planet #redirects.
This list excludes the following:
The complete regex search pattern I used to apply rules #3, 4, & 5 was:
(binary|trinary|triple)[\s‐–—-]+(asteroid|minor planet)|potentially[\s‐–—-]+(hazardous|dangerous)|(\d[\s\:\\\/‐–—-]+\d|orbital)[\s‐–—-]+resonance|same orbital[\s‐–—-]+period as
Please determine whether or not each asteroid meets Wikipedia:Notability (astronomical objects) ( WP:NASTRO), then:

After you make a #redirect, go to the talk page (or create it), and make sure it has:
{{WikiProject Astronomy|class=|importance=|object=yes}} {{WikiProject Solar System|class=|importance=}}
{{
WikiProject Astronomy}} has several aliases ({{
Astronomy}}, {{
WP Astronomy}}, {{
WPAST}}, {{
WPASTRO}}, {{
WPASTRONOMY}}, {{
WPAstro}}, {{
WPAstronomy}}, {{
WPTFConstel}}).
{{
WikiProject Solar System}} has 2 aliases ({{
WPSS}}, {{
WP Solar System}}).
|class=
and |importance=
should have null values for #Rs, unless importance > Low. These 2 parameters are automatically determined for #Rs so they can either be left null or not included at all. Either way,
Category:Unassessed Solar System articles of Unknown-importance,
Category:Unknown-importance Solar System articles, and the corresponding
WP:AST tracking categories will be auto-populated if/when the #R becomes an article. Having the parameters null'd, however, is a courtesy to whoever decides to classify them in the future.
Several redirects may exist for any minor planet redirect, from their older, provisional designation, from alternate spellings, from/to diacritical versions, etc. There is always a primary (preferred) #R, and any number of secondary (unpreferred) #Rs.
When the primary #R points to the List of minor planets, all secondary #Rs must point to List of minor planets as well, instead of pointing to the primary #R. These secondary #Rs need an additional template, {{ R avoided double redirect}}, to inform the editor, and to keep track of them.
Example: The primary redirect
12817 Federica has a secondary redirect,
12817Federica.
12817Federica should be redirected like this (replace the highlighted
text as needed):
#REDIRECT [[List of minor planets: 12001–13000#817]] {{Redirect category shell| {{R avoided double redirect|12817 Federica}} {{R from incorrect name|12817 Federica}} }} {{NASTRO comment|do-not-cat=yes}}
In the example above the 2nd template may change depending on the nature of the redirect. Cases are:
{{R from incorrect name|<correct name>}}
(as shown above). Examples include
12817Federica,
(9338)1991FL4 (both missing a white space), and
10803 Careyo (non-dicartical erratum in first publication, but later corrected to
10803 Caléyo). The wrong version is
still displayed on JPL's SBDB). Unfortunately some of the non-white space versions
can not be deleted and need to be redirected.{{R from alternative name|<correct name>}}
. For example,
(52246) Donaldjohanson is the incorrect version of
52246 Donaldjohanson, due to its parentheses. The parenthetical version is legitimate, but not used on English-wiki.{{R from former name}}
. This often goes along with {{R from move}}
which is automatically added when the article was properly moved from its provisional designation. (The move-template, however, is missing when the article was created redundantly, or, when the provisional article has been created retroactively).{{R to diacritics}}
. This type of redirect should exist for each and every minor planet which contains
diacritical marks in its name. JPL's SBDB, for example, exclusively displays this non-diacritical version, but the officially published name in the Minor planet circulars has in fact diacritics.{{R from alternative spelling}}
.
Wikipedia uses straight apostrophes and often
en-dashes instead of
hyphens. Alternative #Rs with curly instead of straight apostrophes should use the alternative spelling template. The same goes for hyphens and en-dashes. Whenever wiki uses an en-dash instead of a hyphen (as used in the original MPC source), the alternative #R should contain the R from alternative spelling template.Caveats:
Separated from #Numbered and named because it's more work to merge the 2 lists, and the unnamed ones seem to be edited as a group, and often contain similar mistakes/nuances/etc.
