| − | + | <br /> The following is a list compiled from the approval dates shown in the [[IAU%20Planetary%20Gazetteer|IAU Planetary Gazetteer]].<br /> <br /> Until recently, changes to the [[IAU%20Nomenclature|IAU Nomenclature]] were theoretically supposed to be adopted by vote at the General Assembly meetings of the [[IAU|IAU]], typically held every three years. In practice, few, if any, such votes were held, but most of the names (and name changes) were published or announced in the [[IAU%20Transactions|IAU Transactions]]. In the following list, names listed in square brackets are old names that were dropped, while the remainder are new names that were published, according to the ''Gazetteer'', in that year.<br /> <br /> This list is far from comprehensive, for the on-line ''Gazetteer'' does not include many [[lettered%20crater|lettered crater]] names, and Greek lettered peaks and Roman-numeraled rilles that were included in the original nomenclature of 1935 but later changed or dropped. Similarly, many other changes are not well documented in the on-line ''Gazetteer'', particularly for years prior to the 1990's. Finally, the single-line format of the Gazetteer introduces certain anomalies, such as creating the impression that the name [[Walther|Walther]] was adopted in 1935, when in reality the current name was the result of a spelling change approved in 2000. See the Notes at the end of this list for more details.<br /> <br /> A better and more reliable source is generally the [[IAU%20Transactions|IAU Transactions]] themselves, in which (until recently) the changes were supposed to be announced before being considered official. Where possible, the approval dates should be checked against the lists appearing in the [[IAU%20Transactions|scanned copies]]. <br /> <br /> The current [http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/approved.html current policy] is that the IAU's [[WGPSN|WGPSN]] is empowered to publish names directly in the on-line [[IAU%20Planetary%20Gazetteer|IAU Planetary Gazetteer]], and they become official if no objection is received by the IAU Division III President within three months. Such changes may or may not be later published in the ''Transactions''.<br /> <br /> <br /> | |

A Chronology of IAU Name Changes
The following is a list compiled from the approval dates shown in the IAU Planetary Gazetteer.
Until recently, changes to the IAU Nomenclature were theoretically supposed to be adopted by vote at the General Assembly meetings of the IAU, typically held every three years. In practice, few, if any, such votes were held, but most of the names (and name changes) were published or announced in the IAU Transactions. In the following list, names listed in square brackets are old names that were dropped, while the remainder are new names that were published, according to the Gazetteer, in that year.
This list is far from comprehensive, for the on-line Gazetteer does not include many lettered crater names, and Greek lettered peaks and Roman-numeraled rilles that were included in the original nomenclature of 1935 but later changed or dropped. Similarly, many other changes are not well documented in the on-line Gazetteer, particularly for years prior to the 1990's. Finally, the single-line format of the Gazetteer introduces certain anomalies, such as creating the impression that the name Walther was adopted in 1935, when in reality the current name was the result of a spelling change approved in 2000. See the Notes at the end of this list for more details.
A better and more reliable source is generally the IAU Transactions themselves, in which (until recently) the changes were supposed to be announced before being considered official. Where possible, the approval dates should be checked against the lists appearing in the scanned copies.
The current current policy is that the IAU's WGPSN is empowered to publish names directly in the on-line IAU Planetary Gazetteer, and they become official if no objection is received by the IAU Division III President within three months. Such changes may or may not be later published in the Transactions.
1935
(1935 refers to the publication date of the first definitive list of IAU-approved lunar names, Named Lunar Formations. Work on that project was announced and endorsed at a number of General Assembly meetings, with a list of 507 approved primary names being published as early as 1928)

In addition to the formally announced name changes listed here, the IAU approved certain mapping activities of the LPL (the System of Lunar Craters, etc.) and the DMA (the LAC map series). These redefined many of the feature name assignments made in Named Lunar Formations, especially of rilles and lettered craters, as well as adding and deleting others.
1970
(1970 refers to IAU Transactions XIVB, but the definitive list of approved names was not published until 1971. For explanation of names added in 1970 -- mostly on the Moon's farside -- and for biographical information about the persons honored see Menzel, 1971.)

+ ~7000 satellite feature names edited from NASA RP-1097 -- many of which had been previously approved in Named Lunar Formations, but never entered in the IAU computer database.
The following names were adopted as dropped features because non-lettered names for these features had been approved subsequent to the Fall, 1982 publication of RP-1097:
[Amundsen A]
[Arrhenius P]
[Barringer L]
[Barringer M]
[Borman A]
[Borman L]
[Borman X]
[Borman Y]
[Borman Z]
[Carver K]
[De Roy X]
[Drude S]
[Drygalski Q]
[Ellerman Q]
[Golitsyn B]
- note: the preceding short list of lettered feature names appearing in RP-1097 that had been subsequently replaced by regular names is not complete, but these are the only ones presently listed as dropped features in the IAU Planetary Gazetteer. RP-1097 also redefined, reassigned and dropped an unknown number of satellite feature names that been been previously approved as part of Named Lunar Formations and/or the System of Lunar Craters. Since only the names and definitions contained in RP-1097 were entered into the database, the earlier designations are not documented there.

Notes
- The list of approval dates through 2008 is based on an Excel-format download of the IAU Planetary Gazetteer on August 1, 2007.
- Not counting the dropped names (listed in square brackets), the approval dates of 1899 names were listed. 21 names have been added since.
- The long list approved in 1935 was the initial nomenclature of the Moon's nearside. The initial list was actually much longer, including many satellite features and peaks and rilles. That portion of the initial list is not given in the on-line Gazetteer because most of these had been dropped before the first Gazetteer was prepared. Such names are found in the on-line version only if the name was latter modified or re-adopted. Many of the initial lettered craters were re-approved in 2006, but not necessarily with their original names or locations.
- The long list of names approved in 1970 includes (but is not limited to) the main intial nomenclature for the Moon's farside. Eighteen other farside names had been previously adopted in 1961 (Whitaker, p. 232).
- A number of the names listed as being approved in 1935 were originally adopted with different spellings (see the Index of Named Lunar Formations).

(Note: in addition to spelling changes, Whitaker, p. 235, says the original Brisbane, Le Gentil and Regnault, all listed with an approval date of 1935, were later moved)
- A number of the names listed as being first approved on later dates were actually part of the 1935 nomenclature. The many 1961 approval dates given in the on-line Gazetteer may indicate that changes in spelling or position were made in Table III of G. P. Kuiper's Photographic Lunar Atlas (1960). According to the IAU resolution reproduced on p. 232 of Whitaker, the contents of that Table were approved in 1961 as "corrections" to the IAU's Named Lunar Formations (1935).

- The farside names Hertz, Kurchatov, Lobachevskiy, Mendeleev, Pasteur, Popov and Tsu Chung-Chi appear in the 1970 approval list; but they had been previously approved, along with eleven other farside names, in 1961. Perhaps the original finding map was too vague to be sure the newly approved features were the same as those originally intended.
- Although they do not appear in the on-line Gazetteer, according to Whitaker (p. 232), the farside names Joliot Curie, Sklodowska-Curie and Montes Sovietici were approved in 1961. These names were apparently later dropped, but in 1970, Joliot was approved for what had initially been Joliot Curie and two large craters in the vicinity of the original Sklodowska-Curie were separately approved as Sklodowska and Curie. Montes Sovietici has not reappeared.
- The Soviet Mountains were named from the high Sun Luna 3 farside images. They are crater rays, not mountains, and hence were quietly dropped. - tychocrater Aug 3, 2007
