Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of miscellaneous minor planet discoverers
no need for such a list of minor planet discoverers. By definition, such a list is comprised solely of non-notable people, and thus fails . This list actually serves no purpose ''at all'' to readers, since the relevant information can already be found at the list of minor planets's sublists. Considering the vast number of minor planets (over 500000), creating a list of every single discoverer is next to impossible. Urhixidur, you state that somebody who discovers a minor planet is inherently notable. Why do you say this, when I could just as easily say that whoever discovers any object whatsoever is inherently notable? VMS Mosaic, the MOS entry you state says that such criteria ''specifically excludes'' living people, so that criteria is not applicable here
