Thank you Yarnalgo!

I created the page "List of rovers on extraterrestrial bodies". It is the first article i have ever created in Wikipedia. I reviewed the page on 19th January, 2020 and saw your edits. I am glad to see that your edit has improved the article quite a bit.

So thank you for your contribution — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tanvir Ahmed Zubair (talk • contribs) 15:43, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 101955 Bennu, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Aetos (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.)

What do you think of Paul Benedict's latest edit? Cordially. CRS-20 (talk) 00:38, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@CRS-20: Seems fine to me. Do you think it doesn't belong in the intro? --Yarnalgo talk 17:20, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it should be in 2018-2019, in my opinion. CRS-20 (talk) 19:48, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Roscosmos vs. RKA

Hi, thanks for your edits on Roscosmos and RKA. The fact is that RKA is one of the precursors to Roscosmos (it existed from 1992 to 1999). Roscosmos (full name: Federal Space Agency) was established in 2004. They explain it here, in the first paragraph: https://www.roscosmos.ru/9156/ Also, Roscosmos is an acronym, and RKA is an abbreviation, not the other way around. Best regards. Buxareu (talk) 09:27, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Buxareu: Okay, thanks for the explanation, but this is not explained anywhere in the Roscosmos article. The RKA acronym (I think you might have acronym and abbreviation mixed up?) just started getting used halfway through the article with no explanation, which is why I added the {{clarify}} tag. Thank you for adding the correct Russian name so that "RKA" is explained, but this history that you're giving me about it being the precursor is still unexplained. In that Current programs section, the writing just switches to calling it the Russian Space Agency/RKA without any explanation that that is a former name/precursor organization, which was pretty confusing for me when reading through. Could you add the information that you just gave me, with that source, to the article? It seems like this is probably important enough to add to the lead with the Russian Space Agency name bolded since it redirects to this article. Thanks! --Yarnalgo talk 19:27, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I just noticed that the Crisis years section talks about what "Roscosmos" was doing in the 1990s, and the next section talks about "Roscosmos" cosmonauts flying to the ISS in 2000, which contradicts what you just told me about Roscosmos being established in 2004 (not saying you're wrong, just that the article is confusing as it's written). Can you make this more clear in the article? I would make these changes myself, but clearly you are more knowledgeable on this topic, and I could use your help. Thanks! --Yarnalgo talk 19:32, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, the Roscosmos article should definitely be rewritten, including the second paragraph where they mention one of the precursors to Roscosmos: first, the year given, 1992, is blatantly wrong (correct year: 2004), and secondly, Roscosmos had several precursors. Will try to fix it when I have time. As to acronyms: RKA is pronounced letter by letter (at least in Russian: "er-kah-ah"), so it's NOT an acronym, while Roscosmos is pronounced as a word, which means it's an acronym. "Roscosmos" is formed of the first three letters of the word "Rossiysky" (Russian) and the word "kosmos" (space). It literally means "Russian space". P.S. As a matter of fact, the current Roscosmos was established in 2015; the previos organization, also called Roscosmos, existed from 2004 to 2015 (yes, this stuff is quite confusing). All this info must be mentioned in the article. Buxareu (talk) 09:48, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
