[edit] Mars Curse

You were right, that the phrasing was bad... I went back in and edited it to make it clear that 13 of 36 overall missions succeeded, and 5 of 11 landing tries succeeded. Good catch. That's the sort of stuff that someone who's been editing forever and knows the subject so well we don't have to read it all for comprehension usually miss. Thanks...

[edit] LPL Logo

Hi Ben. I'm glad to see the start of a Lunar and Planetary Laboratory article. I might suggest that you crop the text out of the logo image. --Tisco 03:45, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spamlink?

Regarding your reversion of my reversion, the web site in question has a Google PageRank of 2/10 and an Alexa Ranking of about 2,150,828. That means the web site isn't notable enough to be included as an external link on Wikipedia. There was someone who said that if a web site will benefit greatly from being included on Wikipedia, it's not notable enough to be included on Wikipedia. That's what I believe, and that's why I removed the link (note that I still kept the name of the event when I removed the link). Now, I don't get into a habit of getting into a revert war, so that's why I'm bringing this up in your talk page, and I'd like you to reconsider. Thanks, --Deathphoenix ʕ 00:26, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

No problems. Do you mind if I revert back to my version? --Deathphoenix ʕ 02:52, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] FAC

You may want to check your spelling in the FAC submission. Also, the Peer Review has toi be archived before FAC. I did this and posted a note to the submission. Jtmichcock 14:08, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

--Additional Peer Review== I have added this to Wikipedia:Scientific peer review/Science to get some feedback from persons knowledgeable in the scientific field. Jtmichcock 16:34, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for all of the help! Tuvas 16:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Under the table

Hey, I just wanted to say that what you're doing with the MRO page is AWESOME - it's really come a long way since the first time I saw it. Also, I know you've been editing it a lot longer than I have and I didn't want to piss anyone off by jumping in too fast. But now I see that I'm doing it anyway.  :) Anyway, I'm not easily offended and I take you to be one of the leads (if not THE lead) on the article (if there is such a thing). Please revert my changes if they're too annoying (will/koeppen). --will 04:06, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Guess we're on grammar duty now. Thanks for pushing this stuff at the FAC - I just read the comments and am trying to work through the article again with a more discerning eye.--will 06:13, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Hey, so I didn't know if you had any particular desire to keep the sentence you just added to MRO science operations and extended mission section, but I think it says [almost exactly] the same thing as the sentence directly preceding it. I just didn't want to delete it if there was something specific you were going for. In your edit summary you said something to the effect of "adding more than just HiRISE stuff", but I think the previous sentence is so general (studying geology, atmosphere, climate, weather, and ice) that it certainly applies to all the instruments.--Koeppen 22:56, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Astronomy Collaboration of the Week

Mars is the Astronomy Collaboration of the week for the week of June 13-19. --Volcanopele 18:08, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article CRISM, which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Viking

Hello, I was on the Lander engineering team for the Viking landers at the Martin Marietta plant in Colorado, worked on the lander simulation software and component level testing for three years. I was wondering if any of the softer anecdotes and might be useful in the articles. For example, I know details about the loss of communications that Lander 2 went through during descent, and I know a lot of engineering detail on the landers as well.

[edit] Help in translation

Hey Tuvas, I've found you in the Babel categories and I'd like to know if you could give me a hand in translating an e-mail added on both these images: Image:Junior torino.jpg and Image:Junior92.jpg. Regards —Lesfer (talk/@) 23:33, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your time and your help, Tuvas! :D —Lesfer (talk/@) 22:16, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MRO

Do you know more info about the solar conjunction mentioned on the MRO page? Is it from October 7 to November 8, 2006 or is it an N day thing that will happen somewhere in that period? -Ravedave (help name my baby) 02:29, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

That does help. I have clarified the article so it says "from". Also I noticed that the cubesat you worked on got blown to smithereens. That sucks, are more being built? -Ravedave (help name my baby) 04:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject_Space reorganisation

Hi, it has been suggested here that the project WikiProject Mars spacecraft is to be depreciated. It's proposed that its duties be split between WikiProject Mars, and WikiProject Space Exploration, in order to increase the critical mass. If you have an opinion concering this, could you leave on the Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Space/Reorganisation page, thanks, sbandrews 18:25, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Hallow

An editor has nominated Hallow, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hallow and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.
