IC 758 is listed as AG? due to its inclusion in
2020MNRAS.494.1784A
, however looking
at Vizier
it only appears in table 1. This is the sample used for searching; inclusion in the sample shouldn't imply that the galaxy is potentially active or not (it's listed in this table as
not
having a known AGN). It doesn't appear in tables 2 or 3 which list the actual candidate AGN (and known AGN) found by the study. Since the paper gives no indication that this galaxy is active the AG? identification is misleading. The same is true of very many other galaxies in Simbad.
