[edit] Don't invent names on Wikipedia!

User 198.60.233.2 added a "name" Cepheidus Prototypus - besides this name being extremely clumsy, name inventions should be done on private home pages, not directly on Wikipedia. The idea as such might be a good thing, but in order to get some kind of inofficial "officialness", the name inventor should discuss with amateur astronomers (not IAU – IAU won't usually accept such proposals), and get support from there. Inofficial names may get support in some future, but please make it shorter than Cepheidus Prototypus! Said: Rursus ☻ 16:22, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
