Date format to MDY
[edit]@CRS-20: I am reverting your changes to the date format for this article. As has already been discussed numerous times with you, a US-centered article should use MDY date format, in line with MOS:DATETIES. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 06:34, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

"The mission's primary objectives were the deployment of the European Space Agency's European Retrievable Carrier (EURECA) and the joint NASA/ASI (Italian Space Agency) Tethered Satellite System (TSS-1)."

- I've learned more about Wikipedia guidelines and checked NASA's copyright policy:
- "NASA should be acknowledged as the source of the material."
- Since NASA wasn't acknowledged as the source of nearly all the content in that section, it violates their policy and WP:Plagiarism. Titan(moon)003 (talk) 17:39, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
