IFT-2

IFT-2 now has a NET date. Should we give it a dedicated article? Redacted II (talk) 22:28, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given that this page was created almost a year in advance, it might be a good idea. Considering that articles like Artemis 5 exists, and that we are probably less than a month away from IFT-2, we should probably create it.

As for the title, we probably need to come up with something new. SpaceX Starship Second Integrated Flight Test probably won't work. What about the third flight? The fourth? The 18th flight? The 197th flight (okay that might be a bit too much, but you get my idea). Stoplookin9 (talk) 18:46, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are Wikipedia pages for the flight tests of the Saturn 1 (even the four without upper stages). So, I'd feel fine with having the page names be:

"SpaceX Starship First/Second/Third... Integrated Flight Test". By the time the numbers get absurd, the flights won't be Integrated Flight Tests anymore, and will most likely no longer be notable according to Wikipedia standards. Redacted II (talk) 19:42, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This means we'll need to move this page to "SpaceX Starship First Integrated Flight Test" (it's officially called by SpaceX as First Integrated Flight Test) Stoplookin9 (talk) 15:10, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Moved: as suggested. Renerpho (talk) 04:37, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox program

RickyCourtney, are you sure the program should be included in the infobox (all 6 flight tests, not just this one)? Template:Infobox spaceflight says "Only use where a spacecraft/mission is part of a clear programme of sequential missions. If in doubt, leave it out." By the way, SpaceX Starship flight tests is now a redirect, not an article. Narnianknight (talk) 23:23, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
