objection on rookie's behalf

pluto is a dwarf planet therefore it is a planet

a dwarf human is a human, a dwarf horse is a horse and a dwarf planet is a planet

but a few years ago it was declassified from our solar system

On August 24, 2006, the IAU defined the term "planet" for the first time. This definition excluded Pluto as a planet, and added it as member of the new category of "dwarf planet" along with Eris and Ceres.  After the reclassification, Pluto was added to the list of minor planets and given the number 134340. 

still in the solar system though

Yep - so is Robert, but he isn't a planet either.  He's not a dwarf either.

from that link

five smaller objects are classified as dwarf planets, all but the first of which orbit beyond Neptune. These are:

   1. Ceres (415,000,000 km, in the asteroid belt; formerly classed as the fifth planet)
   2. Pluto

once again, thanks for supporting the objection

[kinboshi]

Pluto is not a planet.  The world is not flat.  Next question.
