  • "In January 2006, it mission was rescheduled for a launch window between May 3 and 22," - Not sure where January is coming from, as I'm not finding any reference to January in the source, which is dated February 7.
    checkY Changed to February. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
  • "After nearly 13 days in space, during which it had traveled 8.0 million kilometers (5×106 mi), Discovery landed at the Shuttle Landing Facility at the Kennedy Space Center at 09:14 on July 17" - Checks out
  • "Mark Kelly told her that Wilson was a team player and well deserving" - Maybe put "was a team player and well deserving" in quotes, to avoid the minor 7 word close paraphrasing as the source, which has those exact words in that order. Also, I'm getting the impression from the source that Kelly told that to investigators, not directly to Nowak.
    checkY Added quotes. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
  • "On February 5, 2007, Nowak went to the Orlando International Airport, waited for about an hour in the baggage claim, and then proceeded to the airport parking lot, where she located and confronted Colleen Shipman, who had just arrived from Houston by plane" - The only detail here directly supported is confronting Shipman. The rest does not appear to be in this source.
    checkY Rewritten this bit. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
  • "Two fellow astronauts traveled to Florida for Nowak's arraignment to assist authorities and NASA personnel as needed" - "to assist authorities and NASA personnel as needed" is another instance of short close paraphrasing
    checkY deleted phrase. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
  • "On February 6, 2007, Nowak was placed on 30-day leave by NASA" - Source doesn't mention February 6 or 30-day leave
    checkY Substituted another source. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
  • "Behavioral health evaluations would be included in the astronauts' annual flight physicals" - Checks out
  • " Also found were $585.00 (USD) and £41.00 (GBP) in cash and 4 brown paper bags with 69 orange pills that were not publicly identified. Investigators also examined two USB flash drives found in the car" - Offline source, but others sources in the article confirm these details
  • "Shipman dropped her request for a protection order on February 15" - Checks out
  • "On May 11, 2007, authorities released a surveillance video from the Orlando International Airport terminal purporting to show Nowak waiting for nearly an hour, standing near the baggage claim, then donning a trench coat and later following Shipman after she retrieved her bags" - checks out
  • "The 2007 Law & Order: Criminal Intent episode Rocket Man was inspired by Nowak's story and featured a love triangle among astronauts" - Checks out
  • "An evidence report dated March 15 indicated that nearly all of the photographs and drawings depicted scenes of bondage" - Checks out
  • "Women were first admitted to Annapolis in 1976" - Checks out
  • "On June 15, 1995, NASA announced that it was selecting a new group of astronauts" - Checks out
  • " STS-121 successfully launched on July 4 at 14:38" - Checks out
