Any objection to me renaming this based on the more common spelling? Also, I believe the name should not be all caps since this is not an abbreviation or acronym (like NASA). see talk page comments here. Regards, JCutter (talk) 23:56, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Tom Paine! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person.

Spaceflight portals
Hello! As an member editor of one or more of the Spaceflight, Human spaceflight, Unmanned spaceflight, Timeline of spaceflight or Space colonisation WikiProjects, I'd like to draw to your attention a proposal I have made with regards to the future of the spaceflight-related portals, which can be found at Portal talk:Spaceflight. I'd very much appreciate any suggestions or feedback you'd be able to offer! Many thanks,

WikiProject Human spaceflight activity
Hello there! As part of an effort to determine how many active editors are present in the spaceflight-related WikiProjects, I have made some changes to the list of members of WikiProject Human spaceflight. If you still consider yourself to be an active editor in this project, I would be grateful if you would please edit the list so that your name is not struck out - thus a clearer idea of the critical mass of editors can be determined. Many thanks in advance!

WikiProject Spaceflight reboot
Hello there! As you may or may not be aware, a recent discussion on the future of the Space-related WikiProjects has concluded, leading to the abolition of WP:SPACE and leading to a major reorganisation of WP:SPACEFLIGHT. It would be much appreciated if you would like to participate in the various ongoing discussions at the reorganisation page and the WikiProject Spaceflight talk page. If you are a member of one of WP:SPACEFLIGHT's child projects but not WP:SPACEFLIGHT itself, it would also be very useful if you could please add your name to the member list here. Many thanks!

Lunar probes
The List of lunar probes isn't my creation; I just moved it from List of Solar System probes since it was such a large part of that article and was capable of standing on its own.

I'm not opposed in principle to a merger, but I see no reason that the Timeline couldn't stand on its own; e.g., if the emphasis in the Timeline is on encounters and their events (what happened to the probe, what scientific data was gathered, etc.) then it wouldn't necessarily be redundant with a list which is more about the probes themselves (as machines). They need not even be the same line-by-line; if the focus of the Timeline is on encounters, then failed launches and probes that failed en route, or missed the Moon entirely, would not need to be listed. Just a thought. RandomCritic (talk) 21:58, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Copyright
Using non-free images outside of the article namespace does not constitute fair-use, and is therefore a copyright violation. I have removed some such copyright violations from a page in your userspace. -- W.  D.   Graham  09:05, 8 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Please consider this a reminder. As WDGraham alluded to, the use of non-free images in userspace is a violation of WP:NFCC. Accordingly I too have just removed some from another page in your userspace. VernoWhitney (talk) 23:55, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

VRSS-1
This launched today and I've written VRSS-1 and nominated it for the front page WP:DYK slot. I've given you a credit for User:Tom Paine/sandbox/VRSS-1 Secretlondon (talk) 20:13, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your message. I didn't see that you'd moved it into main article space as I would have added to it rather than starting a new one. Secretlondon (talk) 08:21, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Newspaper of record, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mother Jones (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
