The Bright Star Catalogue, also known as the Yale Catalogue of Bright Stars, Yale Bright Star Catalogue, or just YBS, is a star catalogue that lists all stars of stellar magnitude 6.5 or brighter, which is roughly every star visible to the naked eye from Earth.
First published in 1930 as the Yale Catalog of Bright Stars, this catalogue contained information on all stars brighter than visual magnitude 6.5 in the Harvard Revised Photometry Catalogue. The list was revised in 1983 with the publication of a supplement that listed additional stars down to magnitude 7.1.
The Yale Observatory Zone Catalog a series of star catalogs published by the Yale University Observatory for 1939 to 1983, containing around 400,000 records. A total of 25 catalogs were published, so all references to stars include both the catalog number and the star number.

This is a list of links to Bright Star Catalogue stars. It mostly exist to document which articles exist (they are presumed notable per WP:NASTRO) and to ensure redirects exist if they are not primarily known by their HR number. It also exist to ensure that relevant disambiguation pages mention the stars.
