status as a moon[]

it may be called "rogue moon" but…it isnt technically a moon guys, it isnt orbiting a planet or anything…so how can it be a moon, it just…is a planet I guess. ralok (talk) 23:34, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

  • That's why the article calls it an "anomalous unnamed planetoid." It was referred to as a moon in-universe, so that's what we go with. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 12:38, August 16, 2012 (UTC)
    • Shouldnt it still be categorized as a planet though? it is a planet, it isnt a moon by any definition that I know of. ralok (talk) 18:42, August 16, 2012 (UTC)
      • No, because it was not a planet. Nor was it a moon. I changed the category to reflect its status as a general astronomical object. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 00:12, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

How is it not a planet? ralok (talk) 03:52, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

  • Not every spatial body is a planet. It's actually more likely to be a glorified asteroid than a planet. Regardless, we can't say it's anything specific because the source doesn't specify what kind of spatial body it is. It calls it a moon, but that's obviously just an IU colloqial name since a moon would need to orbit a planet, which this does not. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 04:45, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
