[edit] MOA-2007-BLG-192-L b or MOA-2007-BLG-192-L
I think there is some confusion about the name of this planet. Is it MOA-2007-BLG-192-L b or MOA-2007-BLG-192-L without the b? Speaker1978 (talk) 19:27, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
- I understand the star is called MOA-2007-BLG-192-L and the planet MOA-2007-BLG-192-Lb (presumably because it was the second planet discovered to orbit the star) AndrewRT(Talk) 22:20, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- It is the FIRST one, planets are simply called starting from b ('a' goes for a star). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.24.174.178 (talk) 17:06, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- According to the discovery paper [1], the correct designation for the lens star is MOA-2007-BLG-192L (without the hyphen between 192 and L), and the designation for the planet is MOA-2007-BLG-192Lb (without a space between the L and the b). 131.111.8.96 (talk) 17:20, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move
MOA-2007-BLG-192-L b → MOA-2007-BLG-192Lb — The discovery paper for this planet [2] renders the name as MOA-2007-BLG-192Lb. —131.111.8.96 (talk) 11:22, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
