Values of k in A127589 are not always a sum of two squares (see A127590),

and %C A127589 may be shortened to:

%C A127589 All these prime numbers are the sum of two squares.

Or even better, 
%C A127589 may be totally omitted (?)

%C A127589 All these prime numbers are the sum of two squares and k is also a sum 
               of two squares. Proof (Artur Jasinski): according to Fermat's theorem 
               all prime numbers of the form 4n+1 are sum of two squres. Also 16k+5 
               = 4(4k+1)+1.
