Re the nom, there does actually exist a List of nearest terrestrial exoplanet candidates .  All of the examples given for Super-Earths are given in Super-Earth#History and discoveries , while the nominated list appears to cover multiple categories.  There are pages that cover exoplanets with roughly similar size/characteristics to both planets - Super-Neptune , Mini-Neptune , Hot Neptune , Ultra-hot Neptune , Sub-Neptune .  It would be fruitless, in my view, to collate it all into one article when each article is specific and distinguished enough at List of planet types .  The NASA source for HAT-P-26 refers to 'Neptunian exoplanets', which I believe could justify a new category on Neptunian exoplanets containing some, or all, of the above.  Comment .  siroχo has won me over with the idea of a potential move to Neptunian exoplanet , as it could detail some of the many exoplanets from the mentioned lists that fit the properties.

D r e a m Focus 19:39, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  Meets WP:NLIST (here's 5 quick links, not representative an exhaustive search [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] ) this seems to be a scientifically-accepted categorization of exoplanets.  Article meets WP:LISTPURP as both informational and navigational—it's an informational list about the subject of Neptunian exoplanets, and a navigational list, provided as a way to find these exoplanets from the bigger Lists of exoplanets article.  I'm also confused by deletion rationales here.  Some want to delete this because we don't have certain other articles.  Others want to delete this because we do have certain other articles.  That makes it sound like this list is a necessary sweet spot, which is reinforced by the fact that this category of exoplanets is specifically discussed in RS.  However, if there's a strong merge target I'm receptive to the idea.  — siro χ o 20:25, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] There are only five things on the list, and not much information here.   Why not merge all the exoplanets together?   Why have these five on their own?  D r e a m Focus 20:43, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Lists of exoplanets says "there are 5,528 confirmed exoplanets", and the big list is already broken up by year of discovery.  This list provides a different informational/navigational view, which would otherwise require looking through those multiple lists and depending on the reader's own expertise, possibly reading through multiple articles.  I am open to merging if there's a good target, but I don't see one right now.  In lieu of a merge, if someone wants to move this to Neptunian exoplanet and use the introduction and the base for a new article that includes a list, that might work at this time.  — siro χ o 21:08, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
