| This is a documentation subpage for Template:MPC. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
The template creates an external link to Minor Planet Center (MPC) object-view page for a specific minor planet, based on its number or provisional designation.
Examples
For numbered minor planets, simply use its number
{{MPCdb|75482}}produces MPC, a link to MPC's corresponding page for Template:Mpl
For unnumbered minor planets, use a plus-sign (+) between the numeric and alphanumeric part of the provisional designation:
{{MPCdb|2010+JL88}}produces MPC a link to MPC's corresponding page for Template:Mpl
