Better sources or #REDIRECT

In 2016, a list of more than 1000 discoverers of minor planets together with about 600 #REDIRECTs of not sufficiently notable astronomers has been created. Dimitry Chestnov has been one of these redirects that was pointing to that list (LOMPD). The article is currently not good enough because there are no sources besides the standard MPC-discoverer list. In fact not even the easy part has been added (list of 18 discoveries). By that standard, we could turn another 500 minor-planet discoverer redirects into articles. Sorry, this article has to go back to its previous redirected state unless substantially changed.

In addition Adela Ringuelet needs more than just a MP-naming cite (MPC, the discoveries are factually incorrect) ~~and Artyom Novichonok needs fixes~~ (now revised). I can't keep up fixing articles created on a 1-hour interval Rfassbind – talk 18:40, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As of March 2017, article Dmitry Chestnov has been revised and moved from Dimitry Chestnov. Rfassbind – talk 00:56, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
