Portal:Spaceflight/About
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|
The Spaceflight Portal provides a comprehensive overview of Wikipedia resources related to spaceflight, frequently updated "news" sections linking to articles related to current events and easy access to selections of the best Wikipedia articles within the scope of spaceflight-related topics. In addition, portions of the material from the Spaceflight Portal are transcluded onto the (more broadly scoped) Space Portal. The portal is maintained cooperatively, without being solely within the scope of any one WikiProject.
[edit] Overview of resources
The Spaceflight Portal includes several mechanisms that allow readers to get a sense of what Wikipedia offers related to spaceflight.
- A list of key topics -- articles that broadly cover various topics, and provide links to more specific material.
- A category browser covering articles about spaceflight, space exploration and spacecraft.
[edit] Current events
The Spaceflight Portal provides frequently updated information about both recent and upcoming current events. A spaceflight news section reports on recent launches and other spaceflight-related occurrences of interest to readers, and a next scheduled launch section provides information about expected future events.
[edit] Transclusion onto the Space Portal
The "next scheduled launch" information is directly transcluded into the "upcoming spaceflight launches" of the Space Portal.

There is not a related "WikiProject Spaceflight" whose members maintain the Spaceflight Portal. Instead, the Portal is cooperatively maintained by members of various sub-projects of WikiProject Space exploration. (See list at right.) If you wish to help, please do!
