A nomenclature (from the IAU and from unofficial sources)

Italics indicate farside features.

Many disallowed or discontinued names from ancient selenographers and from other sources are still useful, and are therefore included in this ABC
(because of some rare digital twist it is (sometimes) impossible to add clickable links into several pages of this ABC. Please take a look in the discussion sections below the lists!)
