Scope of the list

The current list seems to have upper stages from three categories: in service, retired, or under active development. It does not have any stages that are merely proposed, but not under active development. I'm fine with that, and think it is probably the correct scope for the article.

However, in my view,

a) such scope ought to be discussed and consensus achieved on this Talk page, and
b) the article prose ought to probably make the consensus scope explicit, in the article lede.

List of upper stages → List of rocket stages – Proposing a scope change to focus on all rocket stages, rather than just the upper stages. Soumya-8974 ^talk _contribs ^subpages 13:59, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support The current title is not easily WP:RECOGNIZABLE as relating to rockets. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:51, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Question Why should we expand the scope to all rocket stages? Maybe the scope could include only stages that have a Wikipage, or a specific section dedicated to said stage?OkayKenji ^{(talk page)} 17:31, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Soumya-8974:, not sure about this move...why should this article list all rocket stages? OkayKenji ^{(talk • contributions)} 03:29, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I thought that including all rocket stages make the list more comprehensive. --Soumya-8974 ^talk _contribs ^subpages 06:39, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching that, I try to be careful not to use "Wiki".

But Ok. I thought the purpose should just focus just on upper stages - but that works too. OkayKenji ^{(talk • contributions)} 05:43, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
