Should the first 3 interstellar comets be mentioned in OA?
#3
We currently have a short Comet article in the EG.

It seems like it would be fairly straightforward to do some or all of the following:

a) Add a sub-heading within the article for interstellar comets with an explanation that more or less mirrors what Steve has said here - or something similar if you have something in mind to write on this.

b) Add a historical aspect to the article that includes mention of historical sightings/names/social reactions to comets and a mention of the first 3 interstellar comets (which I'm assuming we've discovered in RL, leading to you mentioning here).

c) Add some brief mention of various uses of comets in OA (Haloists, Hiders, Orwoods, Deepwoods, terraforming, probably other things I'm not thinking of ATM) with links to the relevant articles.

In a nutshell, I don't think an article just on interstellar comets would be the best option, but expanding the existing article to include mention of them - and possibly other information on the subject of comets - seems like a good option IMHO.

My 2c worth,
