Oistrakh

[edit]

The title should be 42516 Oistrakh, but I can't change it. Please do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.229.139.42 (talk) 23:11, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The asteroid was discovered by a German and named by an German, so why should he use an English transcription of a Ukrainian name? Oistrach is the official name, see for example http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/db_search/show_object?object_id=42516 . --Gereon K. (talk) 21:42, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
