Magnitude[edit]

How can HD 85512's Apparent Magnitude be less than its Absolute Magnitude when the star is more than 10 parsecs away? Any logarithm to base 10 of a number greater than 10 is greater than 1. So, either the Apparent Magnitude is quoted wrong or the Absolute Magnitude is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.185.211.85 (talk) 21:39, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gliese 370HD 85512 – Almost all other sources refer to the star by it's Henry Draper catalog number - The discovery paper, exoplanet.eu, and even the planet article. relisted --Mike Cline (talk) 13:27, 18 May 2012 (UTC) ShellfaceTheStrange (talk) 21:20, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment the discovery paper mentioned by the nom is not the discovery paper of the star. That paper does not document the discovery of this star. No opinion on renaming the star article itself. 70.49.124.225 (talk) 04:33, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Relisting comment - This RM need serious input from experts on star naming conventions so an informed decision can be made. Astronomy project notified. --Mike Cline (talk) 13:27, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well I'm not an expert, but WP:STARNAMES gives equal weight to the Gliese/GJ or HD name. Hence, WP:POVTITLE should apply. Personally I'm fine with the suggested rename. The Henry Draper catalogue identifier is likely older than the Gliese designation. Regards, RJH (talk) 14:26, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move per nom. Both HD and Gliese names are equally valid, but HD does seem to be used more in the research literature. Modest Genius talk 10:52, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move. Came here to request this move myself. HD designation seems to be used more in the literature and is more familiar thanks to the news coverage of the planet. 46.126.76.193 (talk) 08:04, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
