Naming again

[edit]

I agree with the above, the star's name can be referred to as either "KOI" or "Kepler" and both of these naming designations were created by the Kepler Team, not the discoverers of the first two confirmed planets. I agree these authors did not discover the star as the previous post remarks; however, neither did the Kepler Team, since the star previously had a 2MASS name anyway. In any case, the issue of the star's name does not seem relevant. The IAU naming system referenced in the article is specifically for planets names, not stars. Those rules describe that any new name for a *planet* must be agreed upon by the original discoverers of the *planet*. So the discoverers of the first two planets could have called them whatever they wanted, it just so happens they chose to name them after the KOI star name. Accordingly, any name change for the planets would need approval by this original team, but the star's name is a different issue altogether (and also confusing). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Denislemenoir (talkcontribs) 23:14, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
