Bion (satellite)
Regarding Bion flights, their is a bit of inconsistency with the article title / wrong redirects (Not sure).

The Satellite names are not getting highlighted in OLBY templates.

Please suggest a solution?

(either to properly redirect / change wikilink in OLBY / or some other solution)

 * As I understand it the "Bion" numbers are Western assumptions based on the launch order. The one known as "Bion 11" happened to be Bion No.11 (i.e. s/n 11 - actually I think all the Bions launched in sequence so the numerical parts of the names may be right, but more by luck than judgement). I'd say rename 11 to the format we usually use for serial numbers (Bion No.11), and use the Kosmos designations for the rest. -- W.  D.   Graham  07:11, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * , as per suggestion. All satellites now get highlighted in the templates. One last thing to ponder, Two articles, viz, Kosmos 605 & Kosmos 1667 are named by their Kosmos designations & not Bion designations. Thanks! - Ninney (talk) 19:23, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I wrote that in a hurry and was rather unclear; the links were fine (apart from No.11), it's the titles of the articles themselves that need to be brought in line (i.e. Bion 10 should be moved to Kosmos 2229). -- W.  D.   Graham  19:28, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * --> -->  --> Will alter the links accordingly. Thanks again- Ninney (talk) 19:35, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. I've renamed the pages themselves. -- W.  D.   Graham  19:53, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * , as per recent redirects. The Redirects & Template updations has ended well.

IndoStar 1 to IndoStar-1
FYI.

Regarding Orbital launches in 1997, corrected Wikilink IndoStar 1 to IndoStar-1 as per the article. Kindly revert the edit, If required. Thanks! - Ninney (talk) 02:15, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * That's fine. There are a lot of cases where names are incorrectly hyphenated, in very few cases does it actually affect the meaning. -- W.  D.   Graham  19:56, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * No Sir, It wont affect the meaning but some urgent listings which I will elaborate to you on one of your subpages. - Ninney (talk) 23:57, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
