User talk:WDGraham/Archive 2006About aircraft-stub templateYes, deleting the template would un-categorize all the articles we worked hard to categorize. Which would be unfortunate. I voted "keep" on the deletion page as well. -- WB 19:32, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi from RockinRobHi, I'm the one one who put the comment on the spacecraft Talk Page. I suppose it was a bad idea to respond to the guy who replaced the phrase "steer the spacecraft", but I was just really frustrated by that. I'm sure you know that there is enough to edit on Wikipedia without having to undo the work of vandals. Anyway, sorry if you were offended. Rob 23:39, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

RevertsI'm actually in the process of replying to him... it looks fine, but thanks for being alert. Shimgray | talk | 20:34, 30 March 2006 (UTC) Martian GeographyI have joined the new prroject called martian geography. General Eisenhower (talk · contribs) Per my desire to create articles that don't need constant maintenance, would you have much of an objection to just moving it straight over to List of spaceflights (2006) or something similar? That way we could just leave already launched missions on the list and keep them around for reference. Night Gyr 20:12, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
198.203.102.6 (Apollo 11)FWIW, I'd already blocked 198.203.102.6 over those Apollo 11 edits. I was just very slow in getting their talk page updated because I was reorganizing it, as is my wont. BTW, if you regularly revert vandalism, you might take a look at my warning toolbox. Thanks for your help. --Kbh3rdtalk 18:25, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Upon reading the message you left on my talk page, it seems you may have a cause for the template. However, would it be possible for you to just work on one page at a time? Also, I don't know your technical situation, but is there a reason this can't be done in a number of smaller edits, updating the page as you make your changes?

Welcome to VandalProof!Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, GW Simulations! You have now been added to the list of authorized users, so if you haven't already, simply download and install VandalProof from our main page. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any other moderator, or you can post a message on the discussion page. - Glen Stollery 15:43, 10 June 2006 (UTC) re: tagsNo, the inuse tag is just for short edit sessions to avoid edit conflicts. At a glance, the articles in question were not being editted at all, so edit conflicts seem very unlikely. Just make the edits you want without the inuse tag, it's completly possible. Using the inuse tag to "reserve" articles for prolonged periods of time, has been deteremined by consensus to be unacceptable. Thanks. --W.marsh 18:40, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

US aircraft navboxIt's a good idea, but it's the same idea as a category while taking more space. If you've looked at C-130 Hercules in the last week, it had no less than five navboxes - active US, active Canada, active UK, some ridiculous Lockheed products one, and the standard WP:Air {{Aviation lists}}. It was a mess, and it was taking up about 1/5 of the total page length. That's where navboxes become a problem - they're okay individually, but not compatible with others. ericg ✈ 21:20, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Nice!Excellent work with the Selected Aircraft! It's good to see some enthusiasm at the Portal. Sometimes it's hard to know if people really are using it and if all my work is worthwile, but this really lifts my spirits. If you have ideas for any other part of it I'd love to hear from you. - Trevor MacInnis (Talk | Contribs) 22:50, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Could an admin please move this.Lunar Surface Access Module (Project Constellation) has been listed at WP:RM for a while now, and no objections have been raised to it's move to Lunar Surface Access Module.

Expandable Launch VehicleI regard to you suggestion to change/move ELV to LV. I thin i would be a better idea to just mae one for RLV and PRLV - partially reusble launch vehicle. other wise just leave it the way it is.--aceslead 20:28, 20 August 2006 (UTC) Your signatureHello there, I was wondering if you would please modify your signature to conform to the guidelines laid out at Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages. The general guidelines are that signatures shouldn't contain images, they shouldn't contain unnecessary internal links or any external links, and they shouldn't be unnecessarily long in Wiki source. The reasoning for this final bit is that overly long signatures tend to overwhelm the actual comments in edit mode, making it hard to track down and respond to specific comments. You can fix your signature by removing any images and external links, any unnecessary links (like links to Wikipedian organizations, articles, or subpages in userspace), and removing excessive color, font, and formatting code. Thank you. --Cyde Weys 19:21, 24 August 2006 (UTC) Image questionHello, (CSD14) criteria 14 means images with no copyright information times seven days..

NASA NomenclatureOK I'm a little off on how the name is choosen or what it the offical name. I've seen Project Gemini called The Gemini Project, The Gemini Program. Which one is the proper one to use? and why does it vari throughout Wikipedia? Shouldn't we just sellect one and stick to it?--aceslead 17:42, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Each case should be treated differently however. If you want to start disscussion, try placing some that you think are incorrectly named at WP:RM. GW_SimulationsUser Page | Talk 18:54, 4 September 2006 (UTC) List of spaceflightsHello, GW Simulations. I reached your page from List of spaceflights (2006) and List of spaceflights (2007), where you made many interesting contributions. If you don't mind me asking, where do you read about these things (for example, the NRO launches)? Can you recommend a source? Thanks! (vedantm 05:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC))
Marcos PontesRegarding the naming of this person as either an "astronaut" or a "cosmonaut", there is a discussion going in the article's talk page where the consensus forming indicates that the term "astronaut" should be preferred. Your changes in the article in that regard have now been reverted for a second time (the first had an edit summary urging you to visit the talk page). I recommend that you do not edit this specific aspect of that article again without first engaging the discussion on the talk page and gaining support to your view. Please notice that continuing to revert the changes while ignoring an ongoing discussion about which you've been made aware of is considered disruption, and reverting frequently may be defined as edit warring. Any of those could cause you to be blocked from editing temporarily (please see our Blocking Policy). Thank you, Redux 03:06, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Re: ImageIt's been changed already by another admin. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 20:35, 9 September 2006 (UTC) Did i do this right?I have removed the proposed merges of SDLV, Shuttle-C, and Ares (rocket). sense they were just sitting there and you were the only person to really comment, and the only one who gave a valid opinion, mine not included.

SourcesOk this just gulls me. I took a look at the article uranium and i saw a number of claims (claims may not be the best word to use) that i feel needed sources so i added them. One such case was the statement "Uranium itself is not a chemical carcinogen," now i could care less if this was true or not, BUT that isn't a basic fact. I haven't seen a reseach on that nor do i know what the source is. My philosophy on information particularly information on uranium could come into dispute is "SHOW ME THE EVIDENCE." any claim is invalid with out evidence to support it. Well let me get to the point my adding of the [citation needed] was revert by User:Fastfission his/her response to by [citation needed] seemed a bit WRONG. Could you mediate this and determine if some if not all of the [citation needed] were warranted. I put one next any assertion that i believed need evidence. And maybe you should look at that response i got too.--aceslead 02:36, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

A Little HelpI find myself in a conflict over weather PHOTONS, which make up the electromagnetic spectrum aka electromagnetic radiation, are particle or not. they keep being listed in the particle radiation article. I need mediation.--aceslead 17:55, 10 October 2006 (UTC) Except for the fact that a photon isn't a particle, heres the tricky part, no one nows exactly what a photon is. OFFICALLY photons are described as being a 'wave/particle' because they act like particles is some of the experiments and like waves in other experiments, experiments which were conducted in physics. The particle radiation article is about particle radiation NOT electromagnetic radiation. Photons ARE electromangetic radiation. one major ditiction is that particle radiation 'contaminates material it lands on. Electromagnetic radiation doesn't.--aceslead 20:19, 10 October 2006 (UTC) Personal Attack?OK I’ve given up on the whole photon particle or not thing. But a comment by another editor was left on the talk page for Particle Radiation. If felt very personal, could I have your opinion on how to INDIRECTLY address this. At the very least it is incivility, would it fall under personal attack? Sense it focuses some of it on me.--aceslead 23:03, 11 October 2006 (UTC) Ok, there’s more, before you replied to my message, I went ahead and JUST deleted the comment that he posted, in the summary I put “removed personal attack.” I labeled it that way because it ‘rubbed’ me the wrong, I really don’t understand the technical Wiki boundary between uncivil and personal. Sometime after I deleted it, user: Strait put the comment back, added an additional comment and then copied the whole thing to my Talk page. I saw this, this morning and I deleted it off my talk page and the talk: particle radiation. Now my understanding is that your not suppose to comment on editors, there misgivings, errors, etc. If he keeps reposting the comments he made that were directed AT me. What should I do? Other than talking to user: Strait, I really don’t want to talk to him/her. I just want user: Strait to leave me along.--aceslead 00:04, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
hello, i was wondering your thoughts on these two portals.. i see you created the Portal:Spaceflight, and a few weeks ago the Portal:Space exploration one was created by someone who didn't notice yours. It seems clear that there shouldn't be both, due to the huge overlap (and almost confusing distinction); what do you think about the idea to merge them into Portal:Space exploration? or perhaps a renaming of Portal:Spaceflight to Portal:Spacecraft would be more appropriate?

Femto 18:50, 18 October 2006 (UTC) {{MartianStubs}}Wouldn't it be easier to create subcategories inside the Martian-stub stubs? That is under Martian-stubs there would be subcategories of stubs, such as, MarsCrater-stubs, MarsMountian-stubs, etc. I think this would even help those who are sorting Martian stubs inside the Crater-stub, Mountain-stub, and etc. because then they would know where that Crater or Mountain is.--aceslead 22:45, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
Here’s what I’m thinking of, let take the {{Mars-stub}} & the {{crater-stub}} in the article stub Airy (Martian crater), this stub is listed under both Category:Astrogeology stubs & Category:Martian stubs. What I am proposing is that a Subcategory be inserted into both Astrogeology stubs & Martian stubs which I propose calling Martian crater stubs. This is also the suggested format for mountains, canyons, hills, & etc. This categorizing can be easily adopted for other planet stubs like Venus-stub, Mercury-stub, etc. I’m saying this to you first because one: the stub coding isn’t something I’m all that familiar with, & two: I don’t want to screw it up, I seem to be doing that a little too much recently. In other words I have a hard time with the stub system.--aceslead 23:49, 23 October 2006 (UTC) Stub ProblemOK I have a technical problem. I changed some 20 to 30 tags for Martian craters. But the stubs haven’t moved from the Martian stubs to Craters on Mars Stubs. It’s like I never changed the stub tags. Could you figure out what I did wrong?--aceslead 19:52, 24 October 2006 (UTC) RE: Edits to User:Kelly MartinHi there GW Simulations! I was actually asked the very same question by Newyorkbrad yesterday, so I'll just copy and paste my response to him; the redirect is just a bit 'o wit, really, stemming from a discussion I was having with Sean Black and Kelly Martin, among others. The discussion basically started in regards to the correct way to deal with paraphrased copyvio's and disintegrated into deciding to redirect that page to a different silly dinosaur-type things each day. The bit about MOS is apparently a failed attempt at irony, in that the manual of style discourages cross-space redirects. I hope this helps and apologies if it doesn't (feel free to follow up).

I zapped the future spaceflight template you put on the Angara page. Since the first Angara launch is pretty far off, I think the template should be reserved until much closer to any prospective date, as the wording seems to suggest that it's a sort of rocket specific 'current news event' tag. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 19:23, 17 November 2006 (UTC) GPS, a current spaceflight?I can understand the tag if there is a believe that information will be rapidly changing in a short time frame, but is that the case right now with the satellite launch? It's going to be in checkout for a while; information on the new space vehicle probably won't change quickly or frequently. Can you post some thoughts on why it should be flagged?Davandron | Talk 15:06, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
