Talk:Meteorite fall

message: There is a temptation to add links to all geographical locations mentioned ... and some folks will likely take discouraging that as an abridgement of their editing privileges.  Nonetheless, I would suggest keeping the number of off-page wikilinks to a minimum.  In fact, I would suggest that the main wikilinks to add would be attached to the names of meteorites and only be placed when there is information in the target article on the named meteorite.  For instance, encouraging Appley Bridge#Appley Bridge meteorite while discouraging Hungen (using a permalink as the article might change to include information later).  Would you (editors of this page) generally support this guideline?  --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 17:11, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Just in case anyone is still interested in something so old-fashioned as proper English, meteorites do not travel through space; meteoroids do.

:Meteorites indicated as "falls" are simply meteorites that were collected after someone or something see them fall from the sky. For this reason the date of the fall is usually known. Meteorites indicated as "finds" were simply find on the field. -- Basilicofresco (msg) 11:02, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Meteorite Falls? 

message: User:Hamamelis just spent a lot of time chopping the table into sections.  This defeats one's  ability to sort the large list by date, country, or meteorite type.  The question is, which is more important: convenience in editing plus quicker finding of specific names, or being able to, say, find all meteorites that fell in India or fell in the 1980s?  I would say the latter and would like to revert.

thread_title: Table philosophy

message: History changes nations, how to account for this in the table?  The 1492 Ensisheim fall occurred when the Alsace was part of Germany but the country is now listed as France.  Elbogen in 1400 was the German name of a city in Kingdom of Bohemia, a part of the Holy Roman Empire, but now in the Czech Republic, an entity that did not then exist. hgwb (talk) 03:59, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

This page is so incomplete you could make an entire wiki category just for these events. 2.44.139.28 (talk) 16:29, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
