Talk:List of proposed missions to the Moon

message: The page is and will remain weak until there is some baseline criteria established for things that should actually be included in here.
I would propose that if a dedicated wikipedia page for the mission with --Infobox spaceflight-- template has not been created with at least 2 independent verified external sources in the references section, it should not be here. "Proposed" is very vague, i can "propose a mission to moon" to my wife over the dinner or post something on reddit, it does not make it an actual planned and funded effort that deserves to be cataloged as encyclopedic knowledge.
The references cited on this page could and should be mostly moved to respective spacecraft/mission pages, to eliminate useless duplication.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Savuporo (talk • contribs) 22:06, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Criteria for inclusion 

message: In order to go beyond stub status, I think that this page should give a small (one paragraph) summary of each of the proposed missions. Does anyone want to take a stab at this? Lunokhod 22:28, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

message: it has been suggested here that this article be renamed, Future lunar missions -> List of future lunar missions. Would this be preferable to Future lunar missions -> List of planned lunar missions? Mlm42 08:39, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: i see there is an article Exploration_of_the_Moon on the subject but i propose this article should be renamed from Future lunar missions -> Lunar missions, with expanding the article to get all lunar missions starting from Luna_2 and Project_Apollo, so it becomes a comrehensive list.Msolution (talk) 17:39, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Why so far into the future?

message: I deleted this section as it appeared to be vandalism (and not especially amusing). It listed only Pakistan and had no text to back it up so I'm guessing it was just someone who wanted to slight Pakistan rather than a serious statement. Silverwood (talk) 11:39, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Countries that can never achieve lunar landings

message: The Indian Manned Mission which was originally planned for 2020 is now fast tracked to 2015. ISRO's Chairman Madhavan Nair told News Agencies that a manned mission could be expected by 2015. Made the necessary updates to Proposal Phase and Manned Sections.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pravictor (talk • contribs) 16:58, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Every proposed manned mission launch date has dubious tag without an explantion as to why.  how about removing the tags or making an arugument.  also change the "launch date" to "proposed launch date"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.209.181.185 (talk) 20:56, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  dubious. 

message: Some of those on the list have been completed and are now "past" lunar missions.  Should they not be removed (rather than the colour changed)?  If there is a similar list for past missions, they could always be added there. --81.23.54.142 (talk) 17:22, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Essentially, because Wikipedia does not do synthesis of other published facts, as that would be original research.   However, if you have a reliable source for your claim, and can add a citation, then by all means, feel free to add the claim to the article.  After all, anyone can edit Wikipedia, you too!  Cheers.

thread_title: Manned missions

message: The Chandrayaan-3 is listed as having a launch date of 2015. However the reference that stated it ("India to launch manned moon mission by 2015") is nowhere to be found. Chandrayaan-3 itself points to the "Indian human spaceflight programme" wiki page. However, it is stated on that page that "There is no time frame set for this mission as of now, with scientists admitting in private it may not happen in this decade, as ISRO does not have a human-rated launch vehicle and there is a budgetary constraints from the Union Government."
So should this entry be deleted or moved to the "Cancelled or indefinitely postponed" list? Showmebeef (talk) 07:16, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
