Doens't meet WP:NASTRO. StringTheory11 (t • c) 23:39, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I will point out that it is a High proper-motion Star and at apmag 13 is easily visible to amateur telescopes. How close to the Sun does a star need to be to be notable? -- Kheider (talk) 11:50, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep We do not have to delete because of NASTRO, and this star does occur in several important lists due to it being close to the sun and having very high proper motion. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 13:09, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Fuchs and Jahreiß (1998) list this as one of a handful of nearby halo subdwarf stars. That might make it marginally notable. It was one of the first three M-type subdwarfs detected by Kuiper in 1940. I'm still not convinced it satisfies WP:GNG though. Regards, RJH (talk) 14:32, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Simbad gives a lot of references studying this object. However, I did not go through them to see if they had significant commentary. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 15:18, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

More comment, in case this gets delete, maybe the author would be interested in creating an article on the Luyten Half-Second Catalogue which we currently lack. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 15:22, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
