 Not all entries in the list are //planets// in the usual definition of the term. It includes asteroids, belts, rings and planetary scale artificial constructs such as ring worlds.
-  * [[./pcl/Belt Group]] - A collection of a large number of //Small Bodies//. This is a meta classification to denote a belt or ring around a star or planet.
+===== Planetary Classification Groups =====
-  * [[./pcl/Small Body Group]] - Includes small planetoids such as asteroids or coments, generally not more than 10s of kilometres in diameter.
-  * [[./pcl/Dwarf Terrestrial Group]] - Small rocky dwarf planets with a mass up to 0.15 of that of Earth. They are generally spherical and may have a trace atmosphere.

-  * [[./pcl/Terrestrial Group]] - Rocky worlds generally from 0.02 to 5.0 Earth masses. They may have geological activity (or had it in the past) and may have a substantial atmosphere.
+**[[./pcl/Belt Group]]** \\
-  * [[./pcl/Helian Group]] - Rocky worlds from 3 to 17 Earth masses which lack a layer of liquid or super-condensed volatives.
+A collection of a large number of Small Bodies. This is a meta classification to denote a belt or ring around a star or planet.
-  * [[./pcl/Jovian Group]] - Range in mass from 10 to 4,000 times the mass of the Earth, up to 13 times the mass of Jupiter. They have rocky or icy cores, and a thick atmosphere generally of hydrogen or helium.

-  * [[./pcl/Planemo Group]] - Planetary mass objects which are not bound to a star. Also known as //rogue planets//.
-  * [[./pcl/Construct Group]] - Artificially constructed objects of planetary scale or larger, from orbitals thousands of kilometres across to //Dyson Swarms// or //Matrioshka Brains//.
