Description
This template creates a wikitable-header used in hundreds of partial minor planet lists, for example: List of minor planets: 1–1000. It also adds a back-to-top link to make the table of contents navigation bar more accessible. This table-header is sortable and used on each sequentially numbered group of 100 minor planets. The header-titles link to the corresponding sections on the main page, or to other articles, lists and categories as follows:
- Designation → List of minor planets § Designation
- Permanent → Minor-planet designation
- Provisional → Provisional designation in astronomy
- Citation → Meanings of minor planet names
- Discovery → List of minor planets § Discoverers
- Date → Category:Astronomical objects by year of discovery
- Site → List of observatory codes
- Discoverer(s) → List of minor planet discoverers
- Properties → Standard asteroid physical characteristics
- Category → List of minor planets § Orbital groups
- Diam. → List of minor planets § Diameter
- Ref → none
Usage
Use the optional parameter |top-link=no to suppress the "back to top 
" link for each page's top-most table-header:
{{List of minor planets/header2|top-link=no}}
Use:
{{List of minor planets/header2}}
for all other table headers below the 1st.
