No articles link here, and it only lists a pulsar and its planet. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 01:53, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to PSR J1719−1438 (assuming there are no other notable objects at these coordinates). SevenSpheresCelestia (talk) 19:19, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There may not be any other notable objects in this section of the sky. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 21:23, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's the reason for redirecting. Note also that the article was originally created as a redirect to Carbon planet (which PSR J1719−1438 b has been described as). SevenSpheresCelestia (talk) 21:53, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. These are just coordinates on the sky- there is no notability whatsoever that would justify this as an article topic. No need for a redirect either unless there is some clear evidence that the pulsar is referred to in scientific literature or in notable popular sources by this specific string of coordinate digits. Aldebarium (talk) 20:39, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

True. Other sky coordinates do not have pages. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 01:23, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This page makes no attempt to establish notability. I think it should have been a speedy delete. It would just be crazy to have pages that are merely coordinates, even as redirects. If we have pages for RA & Dec, why not additional pages for galactic and ecliptic coordinates of every astronomical object? And B1950 coordinates...PopePompus (talk) 04:36, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 19:34, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
