Vandalism, apparently.

This article apparently contains/is vandalism.

Hey, I'm just the messenger. Tom Morris 22:00, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

It seems to be real constellation. WP covers it [1] and has citations. Google turns up many other links, apparently legitimate.
I think it needs expansion & improvement rather than deletion. "What links here" shows many links; deleting this would turn them all red, unless we also go change the links.
Is there an astronomy editor in the house? Sandy Harris 01:08, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
The Editorial Council made it clear in one its resolutions a while ago that short, non-expanded articles such as this could, and should, be deleted. No one has worked on this one in three years. Why should we keep it? Because WP has an article about it? The article itself isn't vandalism, it's the fact of the article being here that I object to. Hayford Peirce 01:23, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
