On the experience acquired since 1983 when creating the Lyon-Meudon Extragalactic Database, we discuss the problems of identifying and designating extragalactic objects. We suggest some ways of improvement. The main conclusion is that it is urgent to use images in a standardised format. The IAU could help to organise such a standardisation.
