This is a filtered table from the List of exoplanets (full) based on the listed planets at Exoplanet naming convention#Proper names to makes it easier to peruse the proper-named exoplanets. -- atropos235 (blah blah, my past) 02:27, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Apparent unannounced name changes

[edit]

The IAU page now spells HD 145457's name "Kamuy"; it used to be "Kamui". There are also names for HAT-P-21 and its planet from Mongolia that weren't there before. What is going on? SevenSpheresCelestia (talk) 20:14, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, there's a source for it - the note here dated 2020-03-01. SevenSpheresCelestia (talk) 02:00, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
An IP user recently edited the page to change the spelling of "Berehinya" to "Berehynia". Looking at the IAU page, it seems to have been changed there too. This time the change isn't mentioned by IAU-CSN.txt. Everyone needs to be on the lookout for more of these changes. SevenSpheresCelestia (talk) 20:10, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
