Talk:Ed White (astronaut)

message: The only patch is the Gemini 4 insignia.  Ed White was also a member of Apollo 1. Just because he died a few weeks before launch doesn't mean he wasn't a part of the mission.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.32.128.240 (talk) 12:05, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I reverted an edit that changed Edward Higgen's infobox from "Killed while training in the Apollo 1 Command Module" to "Died during a plugs-out test of the AS-204 Command Module" because to me such a description is too detailed for an encyclopedic article. But if I moved too swiftly, please respond and lets discuss the pros and cons. Thanks!  Skeet Shooter (talk) 03:38, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it's all part of the WP:BRD process.  I updated White's status to be consistent with the language used in the Gus Grissom and Roger B. Chaffee articles as well as the Apollo 1 article itself. - Dravecky (talk) 03:43, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, thanks. I agree consistency is important, but the text still seems very wordy and arcane for the high-level summary of an Infobox. The Template:Infobox_Astronaut instructions state the status field be set to "the person's status as a member of an astronaut corps - Active, Retired, Deceased, etc." I propose simplifying the Infobox entry to match the template instructions and keep the details in the Apollo 1 article.

message: These are the words White utters has re reenters Gemini 4, having been ordered to conclude his epic EVA. I think this quote deserves to be highlighted in the article. (I assume he actually said this, as I'm watching it on the first episode of the HBO documentary series From the Earth to the Moon. __meco (talk) 12:48, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That show is a docudrama and not a documentary, and thus does not qualify as a reliable source. We need factual documentation of the quote in order to put it in. JustinTime55 (talk) 16:27, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

text: How about the official NASA mission transcript of Gemini IV voice communications? It's at http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/history/mission_trans/GT04_TEC.PDF, on page 56, at 4:48:46 elapsed mission time.  Jim Simmons (talk) 18:52, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Great! I've added the quote in the article. __meco (talk) 19:53, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
