The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of long-period comets. This target seems to have more approval that other options. But if it is not to your liking, please make an argument on the redirect's talk page or take it to WP:RFD. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:46, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The coverage is from databases, the discovery annoucement, along with few further observations and the orbit determination. The comet is also mentioned here, but it is mostly the discoverer's account about it. It is also mentioned trivially among the comets discovered by Terry Lovejoy[1]. I believe it fails WP:NASTCRIT, according to which multiple non-trivial published works, which contain significant commentary on the object are needed.

Redirect/Merge into List of Halley-type comets. Most of the sources are about the more notable C/2011 W3 (Lovejoy). Praemonitus (talk) 20:09, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- If I may, I would suggest merging to the List of long-period comets, where it is already listed, instead of the Halley-type list. The comet's period is >200 years. 25or6to4 (talk) 16:20, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No objection from the creating editor. I created it in response to a line-item addition at Comet Lovejoy. I suggest a redirect to go to a section in Terry Lovejoy (currently Terry Lovejoy#Astrophotography has the most appropriate content for such a redirection; but that article probably ought to have a "Comets discovered" section, which would better capture this); that would be a better target than List of Halley-type comets.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting as there are several different Merge/Redirect targets mentioned in this discussion.

Redirect to List_of_long-period_comets where the comet in question is already neatly in the table, with its important information there, as well as Lovejoy's name linked to his article if a reader wants to find out more about him.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Joyous!
