Do not edit already successful launches[edit]

New rule: Do not edit already successful launches because all separations from the rocket have occurred. Thank you for your cooperation. Eth132489 (talk) 06:04, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As in don't indicate spacecraft failures? That doesn't sound helpful.Astrofreak92 (talk) 18:53, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You can if you know they are failures, I just know most of the time they are successful. Eth132489 (talk) 00:12, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly defines a successful mission other then all the stages separating? Would a loss on reentry or mid-flight disaster not count as a failure or partial-success? TelegrapherOfOhio (talk) 16:10, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The payloads deploying is included in the rule. It should be considered partial success if the mission was successful in any way. Loss on reentry is considered a failure after the successes. Eth132489 (talk) 00:52, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Failed verification[edit]

Hi @Fukumoto, I've seen that you added the failed verification flag to the KAIROS launch. What information exactly couldn't you verify? I'm asking so I can address that and maybe find a more detailed source that includes all the necessary info. Also, for future reference, it would be easier to add the reason directly in the Failed verification template through the |reason option so that one can see it just by hovering the mouse over the link. Thanks, Fm3dici97 (talk) 20:35, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article claims the Kairos launch took place at 02:01:14. The source did not support this. Space One press release did not have the exact time. The launch window started at 02:01:12, which usually should be the launch time. GCAT Orbital Launch Log, which is linked in the External Links section, did not have the entry at the time the edit was done, although it now has a different time "02:01:12". I supposed the editor has a source which supports the claim. --Fukumoto (talk) 03:27, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, d-date field has "02:01:21", and I'll appreciate if you provide the source where this number is from. --Fukumoto (talk) 09:59, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the launch time according to the available sources. As for the d-time value, I don' know where that value comes from but I have a source stating that the rocket was destroyed at T+5 seconds and I'll update it accordingly. Fm3dici97 (talk) 14:12, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Chinese Launches as a source[edit]

I think it is great that people are now using this source that I provided as a reference because it has been very useful and accurate in the past. 109.78.124.217 (talk) 18:40, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding "Tanki Uchiagegata Kogata Eisei"[edit]

I've edited in preference of the transliteration of Japanese, but other editor reverted. So I'll leave a note my thoughts here. It is me who wrote "Tanki Uchiagegata Kogata Eisei" as "Rapid Launch Small Satellite". It was my translation intended to be tentative since I couldn't find the translation in the news reports or Cabinet Office web site, but now I think it was a bad decision to use a translation since it is bordering on WP:OR, and other satellite names are not translated in the list.
