Correct identification of this object edit
The correct identification of some NGC objects is difficult due to errors and misunderstandings of the original observer and of the astronomers that, during time, made and re-analysed the data.
Use the information of different sources, NGC 5174 has different identifications. Following the prescription of NGC/IC project NGC 5174 and NGC 5162 are the same object, but not NGC 5175. For other informations see also these two discussions.
