This is my project page for the revision and rewrite of minor-planet articles. Related edits typically contain "overall revision (year)" and "rewrite article (year)" as a comment. Existing articles I redirected to the list of minor planets were listed at Tom's project page (edit comment: "implemented redirect <linked-article-name>, added to shortlist").

Potential rewrites of MP-object articles that are currently redirected
Redirects of low-numbered MPO's (< 2000): bodies with no lightcurve have are marked with strikethrough text, while confirmed rewrites are in bold
In 2015, these articles were redirected based on a list (also) posted on this talk page. Redirects identified as potential rewrites are (with number >2000):

edit excerpt of deletion spree from March 2014. Checked validity as of June 2017.
Between 18 October and 7 November, user Astrocog redirected 200+ MP-object articles. Pending evaluation.
There are a remaining 151 minor-planet object articles (non-redirects) that were mass-created by user Captain Panda in 2008 (source). Revise all articles, redirect where appropriate.
