Proposed merge of Chollima-1 with Malligyong-1

edit

Both have large portions of overlapping information and are quite small. ✶Mitch199811 23:13, 31 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Merge. I think you're right; both articles are stubs and closely related to each other, so we may as well combine them. Spaceeditor123 (talk) 03:46, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Merge for now, though we should keep an eye on the articles for a potential future re-split when they get more content. DeemDeem52 (talk) 16:22, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Wait for now, as DPRK claims it wail launch maybe Malligyong-1 Unit 2 (see also Kwangmyŏngsŏng-3 Unit 2) soon —Mykhal (talk) 17:19, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Strong Oppose. The articles have different subjects. One article is about a satellite, the other is about a rocket. The articles are similar at the moment because they haven't been expanded and are mostly covering one launch (which happens to be of that satellite on that rocket). Over time I would expect the rocket article to be expanded with more details about the rocket that are not relevant to the satellite (e.g. its technical characteristics, future launches, etc), while the satellite's article would focus on aspects of the mission not relevant to the rocket (e.g. its own technical characteristics, planned uses, construction, etc). Merging the articles without giving them a chance to expand just ensures they never will, and will result in a mess of an article trying to cover multiple subjects if we're going to try and clump every detail of every payload into one place. 2A02:C7F:2CC5:5A00:E893:4891:C26F:9ED5 (talk) 22:17, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
If that happens, would it be worth it to spin off the launch as its own article? ✶Mitch199811 22:33, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Comment If a merge does occur, which will be the primary article? Has this happened before with other satellite and launch vehicle articles being merged? -boldblazer 22:21, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
I was thinking about renaming it to Malligyong-1 and Chollima-1. Any precedent on the wiki should probably take precedence over my ideas though. ✶Mitch199811 22:31, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. From the point of view of spaceflight pages and activities, having a page referring both to a launch vehicle and a payload is an anomaly and could cause cross-referencing problems in the future. I think it would be a wiser choice to keep them separate and eventually expand them in different directions according to the launch vehicle/payload templates once new information will be made available.--Fm3dici97 (talk) 09:11, 2 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose, because we should keep mission articles separate from their launch vehicle. As other editors mentioned, I'm of with waiting for now too. Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 21:31, 16 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Manligyong v. Manligyoeng

edit

@Lazaro Fernandes, can you explain why you changed the title of the article? ✶Mitch199811 01:56, 24 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

The satellite's real name is Manligyoeng and not Manligyong according to official launch sources Lazaro Fernandes (talk) 02:00, 24 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
