Fails

WP:NASTRO. No popular coverage. The only technical publication is the announcement of "275 CANDIDATES AND 149 VALIDATED PLANETS ...", so just one of many. No secondary or tertiary sources at all. Lithopsian (talk) 19:40, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

  • So why keep
    K2-187c
    and and want to delete only K2-187b?
I didn't say I wanted to keep
K2-187c
. Seems about as (non-) notable as K2-187b. 10:40, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

And now there is
K2-187e. Either these should be added for consideration in this discussion too, or leave the lot alone. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:02, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

They all look to me to be in the same boat: they exist, but nothing to meet
WP:NASTCRIT. Just my opinion, but it seems like pretty poor taste to create all these articles while this discussion is ongoing. I would be happy to see them all included within this discussion, but adding them retrospectively feels a bit dodgy. Lithopsian (talk) 14:25, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

  • I added a page for K2-187b and K2-187c because of the system’s unique architecture (K2-187 is the only star with 3 other planets so close to a planet orbiting less than 20 hours). Also, I’ve been analyzing this system since May 2017, and by September I had found the candidates that would become K2-187b and e (as well as a fifth potential candidate that wasn’t mentioned by Mayo et al). My findings are all on Exoplanet Explorers. ProtoJeb21 9:55, 28 February 2018 (EST)
  • If the decision is to expunge this article, I recommend making it a redirect to List of exoplanets discovered in 2018. Praemonitus (talk) 22:32, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
