Should there be 8, 9, or 12 planets?

How many moons should be included? Would Phobos and Deimos be included, or would they be considered asteroids?
Earth should be an Oxygen planet - Medium sized IMHO.

IMO, there should be 9 Planets. Quaoar is technically a Kuiper Belt Object. Although Pluto and Charon are also Kuiper belt "objects", but they've been classified as a planet for a long time, so should be treated as a planet.

The larger moons should be included IMHO: This includes The Moon, Charon, all larger moons of Jupiter and Saturn: Europa, Ganymede, Io, Titan, Etc. Deimos and Phobos shouldn't be included in the map, since they are asteroids.

Just my two cents.
