ملحوظات
[تعديل]يتكون جدول الاكتشاف من الحقول اللى بعد كده :
- علما الفلك والمؤسسات : روابط للمقالة المقابلة حول عالم الفلك أو المؤسسة المكتشفة على ويكيبيديا. اذا ماكانش مرتبطًا، ف لازم أن يكون الاسم المعروض يعتبر اعادة توجيه عند القائمة. على سبيل المثال، تقوم صفحة Masanao Abe باعادة التوجيه لصف الجدول المرتبط List of minor planet discoverers § M. Abe يستخدم اسم MPC الخاص بالفلكى كمعرف.
- الاكتشافات : يعرض العدد الاجمالى للكواكب الصغيرة المكتشفة اللى تم اكتشافها بواسطة المكتشف (الأجسام المرقمة بس). ويرتبط بالفئة "الاكتشاف حسب..."، هيا فئات فرعية من الفئة:الاكتشافات حسب الفلكى والفئة:الاكتشافات الفلكية حسب المؤسسة ، على التوالي. لا تحتوى دى الفئات على اكتشافات مافيش ليها صفحة على ويكيبيديا. فى الغالب لا يكون عند علما الفلك اللى عندهم عدد قليل من الاكتشافات فئة اكتشاف خاصة بهم (روابط حمراء). بالنسبة لدول اللى اكتشفوا كوكب صغير واحد بس، يشير الرابط الموجود فى عمود الاكتشاف مباشرةً لالادخال المقابل فى قائمة الكواكب الصغيرة . مافيش فى العاده فئات مرتبطة لعلما الفلك اصحاب الاسم الاولانى غير المعروف.
- DOB-DOD ورمز المرصد : يعرض تاريخ الميلاد والوفاة لعلما الفلك، ورمز (رموز) IAU الأبجدية الرقمية للمؤسسات، على التوالي.
- الدولة : جنسية العالم الفلكى أو مكان المؤسسة المكتشفة، على التوالي. قام بعض المكتشفين بتخصيص علمين، الاولانى هو الاكتر ملاءمة للسماح بالفرز المعقول حسب البلد.
- تسمية الارتباط؛ المعلومات والروابط والملاحظات : يتم استخدام تسمية الارتباط لروابط المستكشف المنقولة عبر الأنابيب ، والمخصصة للاستخدام المتسق فى مقالات كائنات الكواكب الصغيرة وفى قائمة الكواكب الصغيرة (انظر الفهرس ) . بعد تسمية الرابط ، يتم ماتر معلومات اضافية: يتضمن ده روابط لمصادر خارجية (Src)، وروابط لقاعدة بيانات MPC (انظر هنا ) للأشياء اللى اكتشفها عالم الفلك أو شارك فى اكتشافها، وروابط عبر الويكى للمقالات الموجودة على ويكيبيديا الفرنسية والألمانية والايطالية. ( لازم فصل تسمية الارتباط بفاصلة منقوطة عن كافة المعلومات التانيه).
- الاسم (الأسماء) فى MPC : يعرض اسم المكتشف كما يستخدمه MPC (اصدار غير مميز ؛ حيث يتم كتابة الاسم الاولانى المختصر قبل اسم العيلة). عند بعض المكتشفين أسماء متعددة بسبب التناقضات والأخطاء المطبعية.
- الاستشهاد : فى الغالب يتم تكريم مكتشفى الكواكب الصغيرة بتسمية (واحد أو عدة) كويكبات على ايد كلياتهم. فى العاده ما يعطى الاقتباس المرتبط اسم المكتشف بالكامل وتاريخ ميلاده ومعلومات اضافية عن سيرته الذاتية.
