Naked Eye Catalog
With the intention of creatinga catalogue of visible vtars (CVS), we extracted all celestial objects brighter than 6.5 mag in V-band from the CDS database. This catalogue does not contain only stars but also (globular) star clusters and other celestial objects. In particular, globular star clusters are commonly registered as "fuzzy stars" in historical star catalogues which is why we consider it helpful for historical and Indigenous studies to leave them in. (Yet, supernovae are erased in our catalogue as they are gone.)
The results is the new Naked Eye Catalogue (NEC): we did not yet publish it to star catalog repositories as we may still rework it while working with it (perhaps discovering mistakes), but as a DR1, we provide downloadable csv and pdf files.
IAU WGSN
Note that WGSN has already named stars fainter than 6.5 mag. Thus, not all named stars are members of NEC, and we created yet another catalog for them (also available on the WGSN's website [https://exopla.net]):
