Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Momenta, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page HD (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Confusing signature message

Greetings OkayKenji. From your messages at Talk:Landing Zones 1 and 2, it looks like the phrase "Sorry if I sound like I'm complaining. Thanks for your help!" is part of your standard signature. I would recommend removing it, because it may lead people to misinterpret your comments, by focusing too much on your recurring "apology". If you need to feel sorry for something in particular, then say it when needed, not everywhere. Happy editing! — JFG talk 15:21, 14 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! Sorry if I sou.......... Just joking, removed the signature. OkayKenji (talk) 21:10, 14 February 2019 (UTC)

February 2019, a warning to my self

Please assume good faith in your dealings with other editors, which you did not do on Xunlimen station. Assume that they are here to improve rather than harm Wikipedia. OkayKenji (talk) 05:18, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

I just want to know what's the point in warning yourself? Masum Reza📞 08:15, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
Just as a reminder not to make the same mistake. Should I take it down? OkayKenG (talk) 08:18, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

I'm considering abandoning my account

Hello! I might abandon this account and continue editing with and IP Address. This has nothing to do with the recent edit my a IP that has been made on my page. Its only that I make so many dumb mistakes when I edit that I just don't want my username to be associated with it (yeah egotistic right?) (maybe I could change my username b/c I personally feel that because of my name some editors feel unconformable, but that may just be me, and whenever I edit using my username I seem to make a lot of mistakes). Even editing with my IP Address I make a lot of errors. It makes me happy to see the Wikipedia community correct my edits especially by those in the Spaceflight community. Anyways thanks for reading this. If you look at my past edits you could probably figure my IP address if you are interested. I <3 Wikipedia. Let me know if this violates any Wikipedia policies :). Be strong, be bold, be loving, and never give up OkayKenji (talk) 03:41, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

I added a comment in this section OkayKenji (talk) 03:47, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
Most of us start by making dumb mistakes, and this is reflected in our talk pages (or their archives, or edit histories). In fact, If I look at someone's early edits and find that they started already knowing Wikipedia policies, and using templates and suchlike, I find it suspicious: they're probably an experienced user who has something to hide, something worse than just making a lot of newbie mistakes. But it's your choice. Maproom (talk) 08:01, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
You should keep your account. Nobody's perfect, and you are obviously a good-faith editor. — JFG talk 14:33, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
@Maproom: @JFG: Thank you for the encouragement! OkayKenji (talk) 01:36, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Some self reminders

Math - > So Rocket Lab says it will launch every two weeks by the end of 2019. So (this week is Week 19) and the next launch is in June (so maybe week 26), so there after even after its every three weeks it should be (6-13 more) launches per the rest of this year. So the # launches could be > 20 by the end of this year. (unless there is an anomaly) OkayKenji (talk) 22:03, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

Minor and not-so-minor edits

Hello, I'm BlackcurrantTea. Thanks for posting your opinion on my suggested title change for Kelly Stand Road. I clicked on your contributions out of curiosity, and I noticed you're marking almost all of your edits as minor, yet the ones I looked at aren't actually minor. It's an understandable mistake – I often did the same thing when I was starting out here!

The Wikipedia definition of minor is different to what most of us expect. I reviewed Help:Minor edit many times, trying to decide if the changes I was making were minor. It helped me to think of a minor edit as a change that a reader is not that likely to notice (unless it's reverting obvious vandalism: this also counts as minor). Maybe it fixed a typo, or corrected the format of a reference without adding any new information. It doesn't change or add anything very noticeable to the page, and - importantly - other editors are unlikely to disagree with it.

I hope this helps. If you have any questions, you can reply to me here; I'll keep your talk page on my watchlist for a bit. Happy editing! BlackcurrantTea (talk) 05:16, 12 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! I will be more careful. OkayKenji (talk) 21:46, 12 May 2019 (UTC)

IP incident

Hello there, thanks for sending that previous message.

Basically, I asked for that exact IP to be banned as an IP hopping user who has harassed several users who don’t edit using IPs (basically, users on Wikipedia like registered users and admins) and verbally insulting people with profanity keeps causing trouble and trying to make himself look edgy.

I apologise if this has caused any problem for you, but it had to be done to stop that guy from insulting me again. Luigitehplumber (talk) 09:44, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

@LTPHarry: No I totally understand. Its fine I just felt bad that there seems to be a lot of personal attacks on your talk page. I have an account so it doesn't particular matter that my cellular IP (I really don't understand completely how IP addresses work though) is banned. I felt bad because someone left a pretty odd message on my talk message a few days ago too [1]. Thanks :) OkayKenji (talk) 01:16, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

By the way

{{tlx}} is a handy template for stuff like this. (e.g., {{copy edit|date=May 2019}}) Eman235/talk 20:18, 20 May 2019 (UTC)

Cool! Was wondering how other editors did this. Thanks! OkayKenG (talk) 20:19, 20 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2019 in spaceflight, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Defense (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

@DPL bot: Thanks! fixed the link. (yeah I know this user is a bot) OkayKenG (talk) 14:24, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Hello again. If you go to your preferences > Gadgets > Appearance, there's a box marked 'Display links to disambiguation pages in orange'. Tick it, and DAB links will be much easier to catch. This is one of those options I find quite useful; I think it should be made a default. Cheers, BlackcurrantTea (talk) 21:03, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi, OkayKenji. You may want to request page protection for your talk page, either through the usual form or via a friendly admin. Reverting the stuff can be tiresome. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 04:27, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Rollback

I have granted the "rollbacker" permission to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks.

Accidently rolled back my own edit in this edit! I will be more careful. OkayKenji (talk page) 13:08, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
In preferences under appearance, you can set it to ask for confirmation. You might find that helpful. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 08:29, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, really appreciate your help! OkayKenji (talk page) 13:06, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
@Woody: Thanks for trusting me, but I think for now I don't want to be a rollbacker. I'm still learning all the polices, and made mistakes, a lot to be honest, its not just in reference to my comment above. :/ Maybe in a year or a few months from now I would know better. I'm honestly re-evaluating "Why I am contributing to Wikipedia". Thanks again. And hey, this editor agrees with me (lol). :) Thank you OkayKenji (talk page) 07:30, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
As per your request I've removed it. Rollback is simply a way of reverting vandalism quicker. The only policy for it really is use it only to revert vandalism. If in any doubt about whether it is vandalism, don't use it. If you want it back, feel free to ask. (And note that IP who left that message was blocked for 2 weeks) Woody (talk) 07:35, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
I know, thanks! OkayKenji (talk page) 07:36, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Protection

Create something like User talk:OkayKenji/Open page or a name that you like. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 07:56, 2 July 2019 (UTC)

Ask for rollback to be returned

Honestly, you deserve it more than most of the people who have it. I’m the troll (alt account of a well know editor) who has been vandalizing your page. You’ve passed the test. Only use it to combat vandalism. Stick around.

Okay, not really sure what to think, but assuming good faith I believe you. Also in good faith, even though this might be considered Sock puppetry, but since it looks like you were testing me WP:IGNORE may apply. Anyways, thanks. (also a lot of thanks to User:BlackcurrantTea, User:CambridgeBayWeather, User:Sasquatch, and User:MarkH21, who has either left warnings on the IP address you have used, or has blocked the IP addresses).

To revert an edit

Sir,in Dr.Shamsheer's article an user has done a minor mistake in early life paragraph. Dr.Shamsheer obtained his MD Degree "at" Sri. Ramachandra Medical College and Research Institute. The user has removed "at" and instead of that he added "from", which is inappropriate. He also changed the profile picture of info box with the one small in size. Please! restore the correct preposition, also remove the current profile picture and restore earlier one. Note:That user is also warned by an administrator " DGG" not to post advertising material in the article. Thank you. (223.230.173.206 (talk) 13:00, 1 August 2019 (UTC))

Comment by 122.58.95.152

2020 is NOT Actually a new decade. Here is why. So if you search “does year 0 exist” it say no. So if year 0 doesn’t exists that means that the first year was year 1. Now a decade is 10 years so if we add 10 to 1 it’s 11. This mean the end of the first decade was the year 11. So if we keep going through time the decades are 11,21,31,41 and so on. This means that the end of the decade will be 2021 and not 2020. And for the people that say “oh so you are telling me the 90s end in 2001?” Well yes that’s what I am telling you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.58.95.152 (talk) 05:48, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Found missing

Hi, I joined wikipedia two days ago. Before starting I saw many articles. For better understanding (how editors edit) I went through the edit history of 100+ articles but in Shamsheer Vayalil article I found your user name. You had added degrees in the article's infobox (in alma mater column) on 1 June 2019. Your format was like this:

@Interstellar20: Hi. A little bit sad that the landing for the Starlink mission was not successful!

Hey there, I can't fix that right now. The page is currently protected. To edit said article you must be WP:AUTOCONFIRM editor. who on the "English Wikipedia [are] user accounts that are more than four days old and have made at least 10 edits (including deleted ones) are considered autoconfirmed. However, users with the IP block exemption flag and who are editing through the Tor network are subjected to much stricter autoconfirmed thresholds: 90 days and 100 edits." or wait until 26 March 2020. OkayKenji (talk page) 12:07, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
It is done. OkayKenji (talk page) 11:50, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Thank you enormously. But here are the facts:

1° Astra was incorporated in October 2016 (and not reincorporated).

2° In addition, it is a new company that has nothing to do with the company Ventions LLC, which belonged to Dr. Adam London, the co-founder of the new company ASTRA with Chris Kemp, the other co-founder from Astra.

3° Now, with regard to the first two launches in 2018 which are SUCCESSES and not FAILURES as proven by the following 7 references: [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

4° It is because I have an IP address that Soumya-8974 requested protection so that I cannot correct this article. On March 26, 2020, he will ask for another one and so on.

And a big thank you for your time, your help and your understanding. You are a good person, I am sure. Cordially. 2001:18C0:61C:700:9180:9C41:3131:5138 (talk) 03:21, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

El C was the one who protected the page, not @Soumya-8974:. OkayKenji (talk page) 03:37, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
The IP is right. I have requested semi-protection due to disrupting edits, and the admin El C semi-protected it.

1° Astra was incorporated in October 2016 (and not reincorporated).

2° In addition, it is a new company that has nothing to do with the company Ventions LLC, which belonged to Dr. Adam London, the co-founder of the new company ASTRA with Chris Kemp, the other co-founder from Astra.

We do not have enough citations to prove your WP:POINT.

3° Now, with regard to the first two launches in 2018 which are SUCCESSES and not FAILURES as proven by the following 7 references: [references are removed]

Quoting to NASASpaceFlight.com, "These were originally believed to be failures. However, Astra stated that the first was successful, and the second was only “shorter than planned”." I really need a rewrite for this. --Soumyabrata (talksubpages) 04:42, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

Look. I'm sorry I haven't been that helpful. Its really hard to help someone who keeps assuming bad faith against Soumya-8974, if you look at the edit history of the Astra article theyhe is helping a lot. OkayKenji (talk page) 01:15, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
@2001:18C0:61C:700:A899:A0BB:1127:4EEE: OkayKenji is right (by the way, my gender is masculine; no need to use singular they to refer to me). --Soumyabrata (talksubpages) 05:31, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
Responding to your concern that the company name is not "Astra Inc." you're right. But per WP:NCCORP, we include "inc" because "If the legal status is used to disambiguate, it should be included in the article title using the company's own preference for either the abbreviated or unabbreviated form (such as Caterpillar Inc. and Mars, Incorporated). Likewise, whether or not to include a comma prior to the legal status should be governed by company usage (compare, for example, Nike, Inc. and Apple Inc.).

citation refs 1960. where do you read 1969?--Dwalin (talk) 15:21, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

@Dwalin: I didn't the Wikipedia article says 1969 (didn't put it there) so then I saw that the ref said 1960. They didn't match so I put the tag there. As the date "1969" failed to be verified. You likely are correct but reverting my edit still left the article to be incorrectly state 1969.
However, https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2020/08/spacex-polar-cape-50-years/, https://spaceflightnow.com/2020/08/31/spacex-launches-first-polar-orbit-mission-from-florida-in-decades/ and https://spacenews.com/spacex-launches-argentine-radar-satellite-rideshare-smallsats-on-falcon-9-rocket/ all say the the ESSA-9 in 1969 was the last polar launch. Looking into it, ESSA-9 was in 101.4° inclination orbit that is technically not polar - but relaible refs say its polar. So would you agree to this: "Was the first launch since ESSA-9 in 1969 to fly a southern trajectory and first polar launch since 1960 from Cape Canaveral.". I guess I should of found thoese refs first before puting those tags... OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 15:40, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
Oh, sorry now that I read my edit summary it can be confusing. OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 15:42, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
i continue to read refs in the article who cites 1960......i'm confused. --Dwalin (talk) 19:56, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
I'll open a discussion over at the talk page on that article, please feel free to join. OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 20:01, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
User:Dwalin, see User:C-randles's recent edits on that page it does look like the Tweet that said 1960 is incorrect. The author of the Tweet later corrected themselves and said 1969 was the last polar launch. OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 20:11, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
ah ok, i missed talk page. sorry--Dwalin (talk) 20:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
No worries - I didn't open the talk page discussion after I saw C-randles's edits. OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 20:53, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Good to meet a fellow rocketry fan! :) --Neopeius (talk) 14:57, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks! Started following Spaceflight in mid-2018 and I haven’t been able to stop since. (So the funny thing is that that means I missed the first Falcon Heavy launch, and I missed the other two because I was occupied...hopefully I can watch the one that was just announced today. We’re going to the moon!!) OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 04:31, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Lists of launches

Recently, in wikiproject space flight, you posted a comment in the discussion for wikiproject spaceflight about some new lists of launches. All except for List of Delta 4-M launches,List of Atlas LV3A launches, and List of Atlas LV3B launches have more than 10 launches. While List of Delta 4-M launches is not notable and does not have 10 launches, there is nowhere else in the encyclopedia to move its information too. List of Atlas LV3A launches is notable because it was the first rocket to ever launch according to some sources (Space launch Now Space launch schedule and other space launch apps). List of Atlas LV3B launches is notable because it was the main rocket in NASA’s Mercury program. Can you please review them? Thanks in advance!

Hey! I will get to it soon, probably the weekend busy this week. OkayKenji (talkcontribs) 14:29, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

I have notice on some your recent contributions to my articles that there are some formatting mistakes. On Antares alone, you accidentally combined 2 sections that would make no sense to combine (adding About the Antares to AFC submission pending review), which I fixed. Also, the note at the bottom of launch history is not linked to any place in the table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.2.238.109 (talk) 10:12, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Fixed some of them. These are drafts and before publishing I will make sure there are no “mistakes”. Thanks! OkayKenji (talk) 20:01, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
