Hi ThorX13, how's it going? I see you've added some lists to the Scientific Research section of the ISS article - that's great, but could you please convert them into prose? Listing them like that is really the wrong format for the article, better suited to the articles on the modules the experiments are carried out within. Thanks, Colds7ream ( talk) 12:34, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi again ThorX13 - just a quick note about references; I see from your edits that you've been adding loads of citations to the article about the scientific experiments - that's great, but it's not a good idea to leave them as bare links - instead, you should be using Template:Cite web for these, usually using the parameters {{cite web|url=|date=|accessdate=|title=|author=|publisher=}} and anything else you find appropriate. Thanks, Colds7ream ( talk) 09:40, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Is there an article 'Research and Science on the International Space Station' ? Information and links here can be used as a seed, and linked it would reduce the mess. I would be willing to help. It becomes obvious (it was not before, before info was not available on Wiki), that tables might be the best solution for this page. It should all fit in two-three screens at the most. -- ThorX ( talk) 12:34, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Also, I think it may be a good idea to move all the great new information into Research and Science on the International Space Station and continue the work there since the ISS main article can't realistically have a comprehensive account of the science done on the ISS and also I don't think that appropriate prose can be written untill there's a decent Research and Science on the International Space Station.-- U5K0 ( talk) 15:00, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

I thought I'd just drop you a note conserning your linking from section headings. I've been told in the past that this shouldn't be done.-- U5K0 ( talk) 13:23, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I think it's just a wikipedia format rule. Notice that no other article has links in the headings just like there aren't any references in the headings. It may have something to do with the mobile version of wikipedia, the printable version or the pdf version or it may just be an esthetic thing, I don't know but that's what I've been told the few times that I did this and I have no reason to think it's changed. Personally I prefer the non links rule because of the way it looks but have no serious objections beyond that.-- U5K0 ( talk) 13:37, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I'm OK with leaving it as a temporary solution as long as we're aware that it'll have to go away at some point as per this. One more thing, do you think it's really necesary to put the not yet launched modules into a different section? I was quite happy with the way the Facilities section was before aside from the fact that I was planning to sort the other harware by module jike I did the racks.-- U5K0 ( talk) 13:47, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
The problem isn't just cupola. I also don't know what to do with the EXPRESS Logistics Carrier which is mounted on the truss of the ISS. I'll jst dump it there for now.-- U5K0 ( talk) 13:57, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I'll try to do as much as possible but there's no way I can keep this pace up much longer. I have other stuff to do. I hate to leave you hanging like this but I don't have much choice. But there's a saying in my country: work always waits for you.-- U5K0 ( talk) 14:12, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I see you're unstoppable :D Great job with the experiments. I have a request. I would like to do the sorting of the hardware by module next week. Could you leave that part to me? If you want to do it, go ahead but if you don't care, I'd appreceiate it. Thanks, enjoy.-- U5K0 ( talk) 15:58, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

Temporary
but will need attention. -- ThorX ( talk) 04:36, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi Thor, I see you've created several ISS-related articles and categories. I wanted to warn you about inappropriate capitalisation in titles, such as with Category:ISS Experiments and Category:ISS Facilities. In both situations, the second word should *not* be capitalised since it is not a proper noun. Also, "ISS" should always be expanded to "International Space Station" when used in formal terms like this. Please create new categories with appropriate titles, migrate the articles to those categories, and request author deletion for these. — Huntster ( t @ c) 23:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

I still don't know, how this will fit in, example:
I tried with new article titles, but it would probably be better, to solve this with abbreviations on the redirect level, to keep consistency. We will also notice clashes, when and if they exist. I will leave it now as it is, we can fix this later, by moving, if there will be, by any chance, new articles. -- ThorX ( talk) 09:16, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Okay, for future reference, any image that is "Credit ESA" is automatically copyrighted and may not be uploaded to Commons. Same with JAXA images, ISRA images, etc. Only NASA-created images are public domain, and just because an image is hosted at NASA.gov does not mean it is public domain. Yes, it is complicated :P Any image like this, go ahead and request {{
copyvio|copyrighted ESA file}}
(or whatever) at Commons and remove from articles. —

So I was looking into the copyright issues for making/modifying attribution templates for you and sadly came across nothing but problems:
