This article is unsourced. It may be a hoax. The notability of this extremely-distant planet has not been demonstrated. It doesn't warrant an article on Wikipedia unless notability can be established and supported by a reliable published source. Dolphin (t) 23:01, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Redirect somewhere. It appears to be genuine, according to the Extrasolar Planets Encyclopaedia,[http://www.exoplanet.eu/star.php?st=MOA-2010-BLG-477L] but for some unknown reason, List of exoplanets redirects to List of multiplanetary systems, and this one's a loner.

Merge to List of extrasolar planets detected by microlensing Not a hoax: found the paper this is based on ([http://arxiv.org/pdf/1205.6323v1.pdf MOA 2010-BLG-477Lb: constraining the mass of a microlensing planet from microlensing parallax, orbital motion and detection of blended light]) though it's on arXiv and hasn't been published in a peer-reviewed journal as of yet. Still fails Wikipedia:Notability_(astronomical_objects)#Criteria. -RunningOnBrains^(talk) 00:12, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
I'd redirect or merge for the time being to List of extrasolar planets detected by microlensing probably Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:46, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Merge per Runningonbrains. I guess this is a merge rather than a redirect because I don't already see it on that list. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:57, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
