Comments
 * Lead is too short, probably needs a threefold expansion.
 * No problem. Let me know what you think.


 * You could, for instance, state a few of the "then-advanced technologies".
 * And that there was a successor (judging by the infobox)?
 * Got it.


 * Infobox details:
 * Where is 1965-008C ref'ed?
 * Where is mass referenced?
 * Where are all the oribtal parameters referenced?
 * I've added an NSSDC cite earlier on to hopefully make it clear. Rather than have an individual citation for each entry, I put the appropriate citation at the end of each group of parameters found at a source.


 * Why is LES in italics?
 * How should I know? I just work here... :)


 * Could link downlink.
 * Done.


 * Also consider linking Error detection and correction for "error-checking techniques."?
 * Done.


 * "comsats" do you mean communication satellites?
 * Whoops. :)


 * You link MHz, so you could link watt.
 * Watt's that, you say?


 * "Titan-IIIA #3[1]" avoid use of hash to mean "number" (per MOS:HASH)
 * I have learned something new!


 * Caption is a complete sentence so needs a period.
 * Interesting. I suppose that's technically true. (Am I saying that LES-1 was launched or am I describing what the picture shows?)


 * What is G3YPQ?
 * Clarified. The dangers of revising an article rather than starting completely from scratch.


 * Ref 3 - 1007? Accessdate?
 * Interesting. I didn't realize book citations allowed the access-date parameter. It's available on-line, but I also have a physical copy.


 * Ref 5 is huge, needs page number.
 * They were there, in rp like all the other sources, but since I only cite it once, I put it in the citation proper. I don't know if that kind of inconsistency is cricket, though.


 * Ref 6 - publisher?  accessdate?
 * Added publisher -- accessdate was there.


 * Ref 7 - formatting issue.
 * fixed


 * "Current Orbital information for LES-1." no need for capital O.
 * Makes it feel important.


 * Are there any other categories which could apply here? E.g. 1965 in the United States?  Any other spaceflight cats?
 * Added.

That's it for now. On hold. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 15:03, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I'll give this until 22 April when I'll fail it if there's no response forthcoming. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:44, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your review. I only just saw this (now that you've pinged me :) ) I will work on it this week. --Neopeius (talk) 01:33, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * , I have made all suggested revisions. :) --Neopeius (talk) 12:17, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

just a few more things:
 * The para starting "After the successful development ..." has no reference.
 * It *does*. It's the one at the end of the next paragraph. But I can see the confusion so I cited both with the same reference.


 * "t 15:19:05 UT[2] on a test f" could move that awkwardly placed ref at the end of the sentence.
 * So, the reason that reference is there is it only pertains to the time of launch. The rest of it is covered by the subsequent citation. If you know a more artful way to do such things (multiple references at end of a sentence?) I'm happy to oblige.


 * "Legacy and Status" -> Legacy and status" per WP:HEAD.
 * I will Stop randomly Capitalizing. It is an Artifact of my Copywriting Career.

The rest looks in order. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 14:25, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your help! These Good Reviews are super important because I generally write an acceptable history section first for a single satellite of a series, and if it passes muster, I just cut and paste it for others in the series and usually adapt it for the overarcing article. So thanks again, both for the help and for the opportunity to meet a new fellow space person. --Neopeius (talk) 16:32, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Good to go. Thanks for your kind words and great work.  I'm happy with the article for GA (I made a couple of tweaks so please check I didn't break anything), so I'm promoting. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 21:25, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
