Remarks[edit]

As of 20 September 2006, the article concerning Pluto is at Pluto, whereas the other two lie at <Minor Planet Number> <Name> so the template is not currently needed for Pluto, but will still work.

Many other objects are dwarf planet candidates; in the mean time - all numbered and named objects in Category:Trans-Neptunian objects are available, plus 1 Ceres

Ceres = Ceres (dwarf planet)
Chaos = 19521 Chaos
Varuna = 20000 Varuna
Ixion = 28978 Ixion
Rhadamanthus = 38083 Rhadamanthus
Huya = 38628 Huya
Quaoar = 50000 Quaoar
Deucalion = 53311 Deucalion
Logos = 58534 Logos
Sedna = 90377 Sedna
Orcus = 90482 Orcus
Pluto = Pluto
Eris = Eris (dwarf planet)

Excellent work - consistant use of this will let us easily track any changes of consensus as to the preferred link. Adam Cuerden ^talk 09:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Added the remaining Asteroids once considered planets:

Pallas = 2 Pallas 
Juno = 3 Juno 
Vesta = 4 Vesta

Someone edited the template to allow other words to be entered into the template;

So {{dp|Eris|largest dwarf planet}} produces [[Eris (dwarf planet)|largest dwarf planet]], i.e. largest dwarf planet

– Expand overabbreviated template names per WP:TPN * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 04:03, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support excessive abbreviations, while abbreviations are more common in templatespace this is excessive. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:44, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
