April 2021

Hello, I'm Padgriffin. I noticed that in this edit to 2024 in spaceflight, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Padgriffin ^{Griffin's Nest} 07:21, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

July 2021

Hello, I'm RovingPersonalityConstruct. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Type 003 aircraft carrier, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:06, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please familiarize yourself with Wikipedia:Reliable sources (abbr. WP:RS.) The quality of the author and publisher matters (eg. expertise of the author, editorial oversight of the publisher, etc.)

Let's use your example of CSIS and Sutton. CSIS is - from what I can gather - generally regarded as a reputable source (estalbished professional think tank, etc.); Sutton has a prior history of writing about military hardware, which in itself does not matter (anyone can have their own website or blog, as they do.) Notably, Sutton has been published by organizations that are genreally considered reputable (quick Googling shows USNI, The Diplomat) and that reflects well on Sutton's work - so far as the stuff published in those sort of sources are concerned.

So the combination of CSIS and Sutton may be considered more than acceptable as far as WP:RS is concerned.

litenews.hk and William Lam? What is their reputation? What makes them a reputable source? litenews.hk seems more like just another glorified new aggregation site and blog, providing an outlet for enthusiasts like Lam. Hence my comment that it's a publisher of no particular note, and an author of no particular note (i.e. likely not sufficient under WP:RS.)

Sooner of later (if it hasn't started already) reputable sources will update their estimates, at which point it will be quite proper to update the article - and the reference. Until then, patience is the name of the game; this is typically the case when following military developments in the PRC. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 20:58, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

References in specs

For your additions to the specifications section for the WS-10 and WS-15, please use individual references for each piece of data. When there's more than one source/reference, placing all the references in the ref property makes it very difficult to verify the data. Thanks. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 07:50, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for November 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Comparison of Asian national space programs, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Callisto. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

WS-10

At the very least, you should fill out citation to the video; add the title of that part of the news report and find out when it broadcast so you can fix the date. Ideally, you should also provide a transcript of the relevant part for accessibility; use the Template:Cite_AV_media#Quote properties of the template.

Frankly, it's not a matter of whether the PLAAF knows. Of course they know. The question is whether they are reporting reliably; that is not obvious. Hence the use of Janes, which is generally considered reliable; it has the added advantage in that secondary sources are preferred over primary sources (WP:PST).

But I will meet you half way on this. If you can provide the quotations, the claims may be properly attributed in the prose. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 00:16, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For videos, please use Template:Cite_AV_media and make use of the timestamp parameters. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 03:17, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
