This is a category for allminor planets which have beennamed. Items are listed in alphabetical order of their name. Also, for a split up into stand-alone articles and redirects,seeCategory:Minor planet objects.
This category lists all objects by their name in alphabetical order. For a correct order, asortkey must be used, which is the name of the minor planet omitting alldiacritical marks, with hyphens, (straight) apostrophes and periods/full stops being the only punctuation marks allowed. (A special sortkey rule even omits an apostrophe, if a name begins withO', so for21774 O'Brien, the sortkey isOBrien). This sortkey is typically defined with themagic word{{DEFAULTSORT:}} and placed directly above the listed categories on a page. Apart from inconsistencies, and in rare cases of absent defaultsorts or conflicts with other categories, the sortkey may be added directly to the category (using a| character). For example,Pluto uses[[Category:Named minor planets|Pluto]]. Note that a sortkey only affects internal sorting; a category item still displays its page title.
