Talk:3C 20

Requested move[edit]

QSO B0040+517 → 3C 20 — This is name is more used in google scholar, is the designation from a well known catalog, and this isn't a quasar according to SIMBAD, so shouldn't be named using the quasar naming method. — 76.66.195.159 (talk) 10:39, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Issues[edit]

reference used is NED (using this name), but NED refuses to spit out any results using this name, so the reference is clearly false. SIMBAD says that it should be classed as a Seyfert 2. The text claims it is a quasar. This has a quasar-infobox (shouldn't that use a galaxy-infobox?) Many hits result from the listed alternate name 3C 20. He claims that it's in our galaxy and relatively slow moving... which is clearly wrong.

NED works just fine. Have you tried clicking By Name then entering the object name in the "Input Parameter" called "Object Name:", and then pressing the button Submit Query? ... said: Rursus (^mbork³) 19:29, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
