ExoMars 2020 surface platform → Kazachok – Per precedent set by the move discussion for Rosalind Franklin. It is the official name and common name for the spacecraft per coverage by third party sources [1][2][3]. The name also satisfies guidelines on both concise article titles and precise article titles. A {{Redirect}} hatnote on the top of this article that reads along the lines of ""Kazachok" redirects here. For the traditional Cossacks dance, see Kozachok" would suffice as a way to explicitly point readers to the similarly-named article, if that was where they were headed. According to Pageviews Analysis however, this confusion does not seem to be a problem as barely anybody is searching up the term "Kazachok" to look for "Kozachok" [4][5]. Another look at Pageviews Analysis shows us that for the "Kazachok" name at least, the spacecraft would be the primary topic [6]. – PhilipTerryGraham (talk · articles · reviews) 00:09, 6 April 2019 (UTC)--Relisting.

Support as it is the new official name, and the mass media is catching up to. Rowan Forest (talk) 15:27, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@PhilipTerryGraham, it's not named after a dance. It's named after slang phrase derived from second meaning of this word.[1] It means agent, spy, informator, someone in disguise.[2] Elk Salmon (talk) 18:17, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Entry, descent and landing

For anyone who has time to work on the article, it would be good to include something about the EDL mechanism for this mission. Landing on Mars is hard, and has been accomplished with various ingenious schemes including bouncing airbags (Mars Pathfinder) and sky cranes (Mars Science Laboratory). It's not obvious how this one is going to do it. Beorhtwulf (talk) 17:22, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update for recent plans?

It's never said on the page, but I've heard from multiple news articles that the currently built lander will likely not be used, and that there is an idea to take it apart and reuse some parts of it while still keeping it as as ESA lander, because they don't want to use a Russian lander. Should this be added? 185.163.72.18 (talk) 20:03, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
