Apes. It was a planet, a culture and a species. Goron (talk) 01:26, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete It's not an official planet. It is a fictional one. It was a planet, but not any longer, it's just the home planet of the apes, and not the only one. It is just a random planet, not even mentioned. --NerdyDrew talk (contribs) 02:01, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I'm a planetary scientist. I've never heard of this, so I couldn't even be asked. It's a fictional planet, so it should probably be deleted. Sorry if I came off as rude, I didn't mean to. It might be worth noting that this article was created as a part of a school project, so don't take it as a personal offence. --NerdyDrew talk (contribs) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But, there is an official planet name -- Sedna. --Jimboparker (talk) 05:12, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have to disagree on this one. Dostoyevsky is still considered the greatest writer of tragedy, so that name still has value to people. There is already a name for the planet though, and it is considered the greatest of the Planets - Neptune. --Jimboparker (talk) 07:22, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first real thought. The planet "Heyer" would make a good name, but it has nothing to do with the other planet. Heyer was an English playwright of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. --Jimboparker (talk) 15:21, 8 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to add this as a second option if I can convince Jimbo, a good author to help name a planet. Heyer has a good name for a planet because it is a real planet. "Heyer" is one of the most searched for names on Google for planets. It is a good choice but I think it's missing something, such as "Heyer". If anyone else has any other suggestions, please vote, or leave a comment.--Jimboparker (talk) 03:10, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm on your side with this one, if I understand. * The real world Heyer made some great movies (such as "A Room With A View"). : I'm for this, but I do not know if this suggestion will be accepted. --JoaquínRojas (talk) 17:14, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I like your suggestion. * Heyer has some very good works. --StarZinc (talk) 23:17, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The Wiki states that the "planet is named after the galaxy it's in, which is the Milky Way". However, there are many other Milky Ways. A galaxy is a large group of stars and the Milky Way is just one of them. —Sydl0v (talk) 06:23, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The wiki currently says that the Moon is named after the planet Saturn, and "the planet is named after the Moon". Since Saturn isn't a planet, that's incorrect. I recommend merging Moon with Saturn. --NerdyDrew (talk) 11:43, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The wiki currently says the Moon is named after Saturn. That's technically true, but not what the title of the article should say. The title should say "Moon is named after the planet Saturn." --Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 16:46, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge There is not a lot of information on the Earth right now. I think the name of the planet should be combined with that of the moon, to form Earth. --Arth (talk) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete If you're merging planets and moons, then why not merge Earth with Mars? The Wiki says that Mars is named after the planet, but, that's wrong. (Mars is named after the god Mars, because it's an abbreviation of Mars Red Planet.) I recommend merging Earth and Mars. --Arth (talk) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The wiki currently says the moon is named after the planet Saturn. That's technically true, but not what the title of the article should say. The title should say "Moon is named after the planet Saturn." --Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 17:48, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Please do not delete the planet Pluto. It is named after a god and is a moon of a planet. It is one of the coolest things in the solar system. Oli (talk) 12:40, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As the moon and the planet are named after a god, they should have the name of that god as well as the name of the other. In this case, that would be Jupiter. I'm sorry for the short-hand, but it's a more useful name than either of those, IMHO. --Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 00:14, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Pelvis, a better title would be "moon is named after planet Jupiter." --Arth (talk) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I think the Moon is named after the planet Jupiter, it's just that the wiki should be updated to state that the name of the planet comes after the name of the moon. Therefore, the title should be "Jupiter is named after the moon." --Arth (talk) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think the name of the Moon is the correct one. The Moon is named after a god, and should be renamed accordingly. I'm sorry if I was not clear about this. The title should be "Jupiter is named after the moon" --Arth (talk) 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I have already suggested Earth's name be deleted, which is why it is not included here. I am also not going to be the merger for this wiki. Please remove the following: A title with "Jupiter" as the planet and the name of the moon is "Jupiter is named after the moon" or "Jupiter is the moon's name". --Oli (talk) 13:53, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
JUPITER IS NOT NAMED AFTER THE MOON. The planet Jupiter is named after the god of the Roman pantheon, Jupiter. So the correct title should be "Jupiter is named after the moon.". --Oli (talk) 13:53, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • In the same vein as the previous statuse of liberty idea, in the Netherlands there is a statue of liberty in the middle of the Scheveningen beach. I'm not sure if it is possible to get into the statue but I sure as heck would like to take a walk in front of it and take a picture while I have a beer in my hand - Loren D. (— talk) (talk) 02:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've always wondered why there was a statue of Liberty in New Jersey - Loren D. (— talk) (talk) 03:32, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Statue of Liberty is a historical symbol that stands tall for freedom and democracy. But what happens when you're a tiny island nation without great resources like, say, New Zealand? Do you just stand there proudly for one reason or two? --Zerachiel (talk) 04:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hans Island has several Statue of Liberty's on its beach. - Loren D. (— talk) (talk) 06:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oof. This is embarrassing. Went to bed and when I was asleep my computer had turned itself on and ran the bot! I'm going to disable it for now. Sorry for the trouble. —GMX(ping!) 01:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure which of the two is correct and which of the two is incorrect. I did not see either one of them before. --Mtnpier (talk) 09:48, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think both are correct, one because it is the planet, and the other because it is the moon's name. And one of them could be edited. --Mtnpier (talk) 12:04, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
JUPITER IS NOT NAMED AFTER THE MOON. The planet Jupiter is named after the god of the Roman pantheon, Jupiter. So the correct title should be "Jupiter is named after the moon". --Oli (talk) 13:53, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I believe that there is no error with either. If you feel otherwise, you should probably state so somewhere in the text of the article. There are no changes, as far as I know. (And the fact that the article states "Jupiter's name comes from Greek" just means it was Greek mythology, not Roman mythology. And if you were to remove the sentence "Jupiter's name comes from Greek", the article would still be correct.) --Mtnpier (talk) 09:48, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Oli. It is incorrect. --Lancelot (talk) 04:23, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. The names of the other planets and their moons should be deleted to clarify that the naming of the planet and moon isn't arbitrary. --Arth (talk) 02:36, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree also. --Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 08:12, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Agree also. Since then, I have created a stub which describes the naming of Jupiter and its moon. --Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 08:12, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Jupiter is named after the god of the Roman pantheon, Jupiter Jupiter's name is a contraction of Greek (Io, meaning '"to be'", not "I",) for Zeus, the king of the gods in Greek mythology, which in turn was taken from an early name for the planet Jupiter (Zeus is the Greek for "king"). --Lancelot (talk) 04:23, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Um, the angry apes need to have a word with you... Lovable98158 (talk) Lovable98158 20:14, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Returned after a 5 year long coma... my accidental bot run turned into an active war zone. The apes are fighting with other apes, Russian obelisks, long-defunct cycler groups, batteries, Sinebot and more... The robot revolution hasn't started yet, but it could at any time... I have no idea on how we could keep the apes and the Russian obelisks away... I guess this is goodbye...
Unless, UNLESS, UNLESSSSSSS... I use the powerful strength of the bots... to create a powerful force field... that repels obliesks away... and allows us to stay... right where we belong???.....
I don't think this is the perfect solution... I only have <1hr to do this... and it's the only remotely feasible way to keep the world alive... But you know what... I'll try it right now... Atleast before I slip back up into a coma...
...tap... Alright. The bots shou-...... coma intensifies —GMX(ping!) 23:14, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know if this is in the right place, but I did recently add this to Jupiter to be, but I'm not 100% sure this is where it belongs. I know that Wikipedia requires it to be in a category, but Jupiter isn't a planet in the usual sense of the word. I don't think it should be in the category of planets. It should be in a category of its own like the moon. So I think that should probably be moved. Pelvis of the Moon (talk) 11:49, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the double-post, but I added another change as well... I think that the title should be "Jupiter is named after the planet Jupiter". That's my current opinion on the matter. --Lancelot (talk) 05:23, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the change. It's a real planet and it should be referred to that way. Not a moon, not a planet or star, not a mythological creature, not a space rock. It's a planet. --Lancelot (talk) 05:23, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I've had a look at that section, and the "Ganymede was the brother of Zeus, and was a mortal hero. He was later turned into a beautiful white-gold apple tree by the god Hermes" part needs to be fixed. Ganymede wasn't a hero, but a youth of the moon in Greek mythology. --Jared (talk) 05:17, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't see a need for the section. No-one is suggesting there were other planets at the time, the naming is arbitrary, and not only that but any mention of the naming in relation to the naming of the planet is just plain wrong. --Jared (talk) 05:18, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Names of planets and their moons: I don't see the need to have a section on the naming of the planets and their moons. It's the same case as the naming of Mars or Saturn. If we need to explain that, we should do that in articles dedicated to those planets. As Jupiter is the largest planet of the solar system, the case is the same as the planet Jupiter. The article Jupiter only explain its physical properties and history, we don't need any further explanation. If any further information is needed, just create an article devoted to the subject. — Pelvis of the Moontalk (talk) 22:23, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • It was suggested above that the section should be deleted. This suggests that the consensus is to have a section on the naming of the planets. I agree with this suggestion. --Jared (talk) 22:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • This suggestion is not just for Mars and Saturn. There is also the case of the naming of the Sun and Moon. In this case, they are named after Greek gods, but they are not named after Roman gods, which is why there is a section on the naming of the planets. --Jared (talk) 22:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • The Sun and the Moon are named after the Greek god Zeus and Hera, respectively. So, they are named after gods from Greek mythology. If this is not the case, there is no need to have a section on the naming of the planets. --Jared (talk) 22:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • There are several naming conventions on Earth: for example, Pluto and Uranus are named after Roman gods, Mars is named after the god of war, Venus is named after a goddess, the Moon is named after a moon goddess, and so on. So, the names of planets and moons are not arbitrary. I agree with this suggestion. --Jared (talk) 22:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete' This section is not needed. If there is any need to know about these other names, they are referenced in the Table of Naming Conventions section of the article Mars. If any further information is needed, just create an article dedicated to the subject. --Pelvis of the Moontalk (talk) 22:19, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would like to support this deletion. There is no need for this section because the naming of the planets is well documented, and has no place in a listing of names. Just a note that Jupiter was named after the Roman god Jupiter, and not Jupiter the king. — Jared (talk) 17:57, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
