I couldn't establish that it meets
WP:NASTRO or
WP:GNG. Long-standing tradition to redirect these to the list page; recent discussions suggested not to do this with those numbered less than 2000, which would need a proper discussion as to their notability.

Comment – I am finding a few references to this object on Google scholar.

Keep WP:NASTRO claims that any asteroid that has had sufficient research or notability of it that the majority of asteroids don't have is considered notable. As such, I would consider any asteroid with a Tholen or SMASS spectral classification as notable. This one, for instance, is of the fairly rare L-type asteroid group.

Note that, per WP:NASTRO, only certain catalogues indicate likely notability. Unfortunately, having a Tholen or SMASS spectral classification doesn't appear to indicate notability in the sense that Wikipedia uses the term. For example, it doesn't necessarily indicate significant coverage.
