Correct name of this galaxy edit

I don't know why some Wikipedias report for NGC 94 two names, NGC 94-1 and NGC 94-2, for two near galaxies: all principal astronomical archives use the name NGC 94 only for the northern object (named also PGC 1423). The second is classified using other names (PGC/LEDA 1670567 and NPM1G +22.0020), but not NGC 94-2! See NED, SIMBAD or Hyperleda for NGC 94 and SIMBAD or Hyperleda for PGC 1670567. Also the NGC/IC Project classifies only the northern object as NGC 94, without double names. --Paperoastro (talk) 16:07, 5 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
