Fails WP:NASTRO. No published research specific to this object, only a listing in an obscure (to the average reader) catalogue. No popular coverage. Lithopsian (talk) 10:40, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Notable. Satisfies GNG. I see four catalogues, not one; plus other sources. One of those catalogues is the Principal Galaxies Catalogue. If the experts who compiled that catalogue think this galaxy is one of the principal ones, I have no choice but to accept their judgement that this galaxy is notable. This article is in the process of expansion: see WP:DEMOLISH and WP:HEYMANN. James500 (talk) 15:44, 25 June 2018 (UTC) The Principal Galaxies Catalogue has 73,197 entries. It is not particularly large by our standards. 70000+ galaxy articles will not cause our 5.6 million article encyclopedia to explode. Particularly as we don't have the manpower to create them all in the near future anyway. In fact by our normal standards (eg ATHLETE) it is incredibly selective.

  • Delete. Having an entry in a catalog with 131000 entries is not notable. Is there anything published about this beyond catalog entries? Tarl N. (discuss) 23:24, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: very little coverage found; it does not appear to be a notable object in the Wikipedia sense. Praemonitus (talk) 19:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
