This is my talk page, feel free to drop me a note here if you want me to reply asap, otherwise use the following subpages for common discussions that I'm currently having.
Hi Theon. I was hoping you might be able to help me figure out if someone is perpetrating a hoax on Wikipedia, and if we are perpetrating it to the world. Canadian Space Agency has a list of Canadian astronauts, including Daffyd Williams. Daffyd does not have a NASA biography. Then again, neither does Roberta Bondar. It looks like they don't have profiles of past international astronauts. A google search for "Daffyd Williams" astronaut [1] finds only Wikipedia mirrors and a single McGill University page mcgill_interview_handbook.doc that says that our friend Daffyd flew on Space Shuttle Columbia in April, 1998. Looking at List of space shuttle missions and cross-referencing with NASA's page, it looks like Columbia did not fly at this time. So why is the McGill Faculty of Medicine saying this guy was a mission specialist? I just want you to double check my info before I decide that this guy doesn't exist. moink
Does NASA quote metric values in their original data? It would be much better to get the values from NASA than having to do conversions. I would be happy to look it up if you could give me the page references. In any case, I thought NASA is supposed to be pushing metric now after the MCO disaster. Bobblewik
Thanks for the reference and the tilde tips. Bobblewik Bobblewik 16:22, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Your initiative in creating new articles is admirable, but please don't create pages with just an empty template - they say less than an actual article (It's a little misleading too, a blue link looks like it has information). If you want to make a new page, please provide some rudimentary info first. See Wikipedia:Stub article. Thanks! :) Dysprosia 22:09, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Just had a thought - would it be good if the Previous mission / Next mission table was made part of the table to the right? I think that would look better, but it would be a heck of a lot of effort to change them all, sadly... thoughts? Evercat 22:10, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Well, I did what I envisage it looking like... Evercat 23:08, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)
OK, my mistake. The text does need cleaning up though, it can't just be left as it was pasted and copied from another website. -- Graham :) | Talk 22:10, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Would it be possible for you to construct a boilerplate to put onto articles that you create from that source, stating what the copyright status is? It would help allay confusion with other users in the future. -- Graham :) | Talk 02:12, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)
I am not sure I am comfortable listing the various shuttle missions as complete on the Wikipedia:Wikiproject Space Missions page as none of them have a mission parameters section and a number have the navigation bar in the wrong place (although that appears to be Evercat's change) If you want to change the template please discuss it at the project with the other project members.

- According to the template:
Mass: (mass) Perigee/Perilune/etc.: (perigee) Apogee/Apolune/etc.: (apogee) Inclination: (inclination) Period: (period) should go in the Parameters section not the box (although orbits does go in box) Rmhermen 18:17, Mar 30, 2004 (UTC)
