KIC 5871985 is a planet candidate identified by Planet Hunters forum Talk members.
Here is Kian Jek's comment:
"Folded by hand to obtain a 213.25d period. Measured depth of 1939 ppm
(0.001939) and duration of 8.65h, compares well with an estimated
central transit of 9hr, for a 3.51x RE planet, distance of 0.615 to
0.665AU, a Teq of 198 to 206K, a little on the cold side."
