Talk:Shenzhou 5

message: This article is regarding a event that, despite the opinion of some, is a voyage of scientific exploration. Should the article not be focused as such instead of highlighting criticism and political motivations? Indeed there are political motivations behind China's space program, but weren't there the same motivations to an even greater degree in the American and Soviet programs during their infancy? I'm not saying that such criticisms and politics should be ignored; however, shouldn't more information be provided regarding the mission itself. For reference, compare this article to the articles on Mercury-Redstone 3 and Vostok 1 as well as the article for "神舟五号" in Chinese Wikipedia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.67.93.93 (talk) 09:30, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

The second character set is the correct term, just look at the mission patch. The second name is a pun - 'Divine land' is a name for China used in Mainland PRC.Roswell Crash Survivor 00:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

message: "China the third country to put a person in space," <- this needs to be made clearer. People of other countries have been in space; but that sentence makes it sound like it isn't so. -- Tarquin 08:50, 15 Oct 2003 (UTC)

message: Not sure why this was here, since I don't know of anyone 
who suggested that the launch was a hoax.
:Although news reports of the launch were strictly controlled by the PRC government, and a live broadcast of the launch apparently canceled, the launch was congratulated by NASA, which implied that NASA also confirmed the launch.

::I imagine NASA and NORAD would be pretty quick to spot of a launch was faked. Slightly more problematical actually proving that the whatever-naut was actually in the capsule, though! Lee M 01:32, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)

replies: text: Yeah, it's too wide on Mozilla too.  Why is the right-margin:15?  I guess the author wanted to match up the left margin with the above photograph, but the page has become too wide in the process. -- Tlotoxl 17:07, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)

message: "Neither the launch nor the reentry was televised live. Some believe that it was due to government fears that a disaster could create an embarrassment, but news appeared on Chinese Central Television (CCTV) shortly after both events." - I think phrases like "some/many believe that" is important to highlight that "government fears" is not an established fact. (Kornfield)
:Opps, then I agree. I was mistaking everything earlier. For some reason I thought that you had removed "some believe...," perhaps attempting to improve readability. I assumed that I was restoring the wordy, but nonetheless requisite qualifier. I guess that I got the two columns mixed up when comparing the differences between the two versions. Sorry about that. And good job catching the problem. 172 04:19, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)

message: I agree with the substitution of the more relevant 'person' for the sexist 'man' in such contexts as 'the first to put a man in space', but as discussed in Talk:Shenzhou spacecraft, crewed seems a pretty clumsy (and inaccurate) substitution for 'manned'.  Is the wiki classification of 'manned' as a sexist expression a fait accompli? -- Tlotoxl 04:52, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)
thread_title: man v person

message: I do not find the footer unneccessary. All of the other 79 articles (last I checked) on space missions have it. It is a matter of standardization. And there is nothing speculative about it. The article already says it is the first Chinese mission and already links to Chinese space program. The empty box for next mission is there awaiting the next mission which the Chinese have already announnced they will make. Rmhermen 14:52, Dec 20, 2003 (UTC)
:When will be the next mission? There a element of flexibility with these templates. All of the other 79 articles consisted of missions/programs with either successors or predecessors. This situation is unique from the rest. We'll add in the footer once the other mission exists. So far it doesn't and the footer adds absolutely no new information. --Jiang 14:55, 20 Dec 2003 (UTC)

message: I think, it's unusual, that an article about the second manned PRC flight (Shenzhou 6 has International reaction section and the article about the first one (Shenzhou 5) hasn't. Cmapm 01:15, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
