Is it really Boeing's satellite?

It seems inaccurate to call this satellite Boeing's satellite, as Boeing is the manufacturer but not the satellite service. Should it be rephrased to "Eutelsat's satellite built by Boeing using the Boeing 702 satellite bus" or something to that effect? Perhaps "Boeing's satellite" is simply more concise, however.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Appable (talk • contribs) 2015-02-28T01:56:30

Fixed No, it wasn't Boeing's sat; they just designed and manufactured the thing; it is owned, and will be operated by, Eutelsat. I've done a bit of copyediting to fix it.

But a lot more work is needed on this article. It was sort of a mess when created, but is notable, and meets WP:GNG. I suspect it will be cleaned up over time by volunteer editors, just like everything else here on Wikipedia. Cheers. N2e (talk) 21:33, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
