Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Astronomy
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to astronomy. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Astronomy|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to astronomy.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Fails WP:NASTRO, isn't present on the NGC catalog or any other notable catalog, I couldn't find any information on the web either. WxTrinity (talk to me!) 05:11, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: there seems to be nothing particularly notable about this galaxy. It only appears in a few surveys as a data entry. A single supernova candidate is insufficient these days. Praemonitus (talk) 14:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. InTheAstronomy32 (talk) 14:28, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

This subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCIENTIST. His singular discovery is not a notable event, just noteworthy (in the list where it appears). There's just not enough in unrelated third-party reliable sources about him to make an encyclopedic biography. JFHJr (㊟) 04:54, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Astronomy, Engineering, Switzerland, Arizona, and Connecticut. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 06:22, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
