I'm proposing to merge NewSpace into Private spaceflight. There are numerous overlaps between the two articles, and the scope of NewSpace is contained entirely within private spaceflight. The differences between the two are sufficiently small that I don't think it would make this article too bulky. -- Marx01 Tell me about it 03:43, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
The articles did overlap and a merge was necessary. Private Spaceflight was indeed better developed and more organized. However, as "NewSpace" is a much more popular terminology both on internet in academic research I am suggesting moving this page to NewSpace instead of "Private Spaceflight".
Comparison of usage:
In addition, many "Private spaceflights" are false positive, as it does not only reference a "term" but two words not referring to this trend. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikiael ( talk • contribs) 18:27, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
@ Marx01: as the person who did the merge, and as a more experience wikipedian, do you have any opinion? -- Mikiael ( talk) 11:43, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
There's massive overlap in between the chapters, e.g. the introduction repeats most of the history chapter. There's also massive overlap with other articles which is induced by the total lack of scope and definition of what is meant with spaceflight here (i.e. new space, space tourism, commercial access to space, private launcher companies,.. etc.). The article is generally not up to date, the terminology and examples used are outdated and vast topics are missing entirely.
It needs total refurbishment. Ld4795 ( talk) 05:07, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
