Usage

The template mp (for "minor planet") easily formats the nomenclature of those minor planets that are known in whole or in part by their provisional designation. The template mpl (for "minor planet link") obeys exactly the same syntax but outputs a wikilink to an article at the appropriate namespace. Use of these templates avoids Unicode complexities in article titles while still rendering subscripts.

The templates have been designed to allow the designations to be entered with a minimum of modification needed; pipe [ | ] characters replace transitions to and from subscript, as well as slashes [ / ] and parentheses [ ( ) ].

Template:mp

To quickly format a minor planet identified solely by its provisional designation (i.e. without a catalogue number), insert the below string:
{{mp|leading numbers and letters|subscript number (if applicable)}}

For example, to create 2004 MN₄, insert
{{mp|2004 MN|4}}

To quickly format a minor planet known by a combination of a permanent catalogue number and a provisional designation, insert the below string
{{mp|catalogue number|provisional designation's leading numbers and letters|provisional designation's subscript number (if applicable)}}

For example, to create (15788) 1993 SB, insert
{{mp|15788|1993 SB}}

Or, to create (15760) 1992 QB₁, insert
{{mp|15760|1992 QB|1}}

Note that similar results as the above can also be obtained by placing both the catalogue number (in parentheses) and the provisional designation in a single field. For example, (15760) 1992 QB₁ can also be created by inserting
{{mp|(15760) 1992 QB|1}}

The provisional designations for satellites of minor planets make reference to the primary (the "parent body"): either to the primary's permanent catalogue number, or to the primary's provisional designation, but never both. To quickly format the provisional designation of a satellite of a minor planet, insert the below string:
{{mp|S|satellite's year of discovery|primary's catalogue number OR primary's provisional designation's leading numbers and letters|primary's provisional designation's subscript number (if applicable)|satellite's trailing number}}

Note that the template functions with either four or five fields used; in the event there is no subscripted text to be included, one can use only four fields and the last field will be assumed to define the trailing number.

For example, to create S/2000 (1998 WW₃₁) 1, insert
{{mp|S|2000|1998 WW|31|1}}

Or, to create S/2005 (1994 XD) 1, insert
{{mp|S|2005|1994 XD|1}}

Or, to create S/2003 (11264) 1, insert
{{mp|S|2003|11264|1}}

Template:mpl

To insert a link in the same way, use Template:mpl. It obeys exactly the same input syntax as described above, but instead outputs wikilinks to the appropriate namespace.

For example, to create a wikilink to 2009 YE7, insert

Or, to create a wikilink to (15760) 1992 QB1, insert

Note, as with Template:mp, that a similar output as the above can also be obtained by placing both the catalogue number (in parentheses) and the provisional designation in a single field. To use the above example again, (15760) 1992 QB1 can also be created by inserting

Finally, to create a wikilink to S/2000 (1998 WW31) 1, insert

Template:mpl-

Sometimes, you may wish to insert a wikilink to a minor planet with a permanent catalogue number while abridging the catalogue number from in-line display. For this purpose use Template:mpl- (mpl- [minus] for "minor planet link, abridged").

{{mpl-|catalogue number|provisional designation's leading numbers and letters|subscript number (if applicable)}}

To insert a wikilink to (15760) 1992 QB₁ without showing the "(15760)" part (like so: 1992 QB₁), insert:

Template:mpf

Produces a formatted version of a minor planet designation as in, for example:

1854 Skvortsov, provisional designation 1968 UE₁, is a stony asteroid and relatively slow rotator from the middle region of the asteroid belt, approximately 9 kilometers in diameter. It was first identified as 1962 HC at Goethe Link Observatory in 1962 (MPC).
