• @Seddon: New enough and long enough. QPQ pending. (I know, it just got nominated...) Hook fact checks out and is interesting. There is also a paragraph in the History section needing an inline citation. No copyvio or textual issues otherwise. Ping me when the missing citation and QPQ are supplied.

• No QPQ has been provided within seven days of the nomination/review and the nominator hasn't responded despite a ping and a talk-page message. This marking is purely procedural and the nomniation can resume if a QPQ is provided soon. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 10:39, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Forge Star masses and dimensions

How heavy was Forge Star 0 ? Apparently FS-1 will be 4 times 'larger' than FS-0. - Rod57 (talk) 11:37, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Pridwen on ForgeStar-1A

Seems ForgeStar-1A (later in 2023) will test the Pridwen deployable non-ablative thermal shield. . - Rod57 (talk) 11:39, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

This article is of interest to United States WikiProjects

Is this British space company really "of interest to the United States WikiProject"? Tantrie (talk) 15:42, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

British aerospace but NOT BAe!

It seems that somebody mistook the phrase "British aerospace manufacturing company" in the intro as being a reference to the British Aerospace corporation! I'll break the link - for as far as I can tell, there is no connection and Space Forge is an independent company.

Incidentally, is this article really still "low importance" among space articles? This company is the first to operate a semiconductor manufacturing facility in space (admittedly on an experiemntal scale so far) and its first successful satellite was also the first Welsh-built satellite to reach orbit. Judging from the importance scale, I'd say it is at least medium importance, maybe higher. Dodo64 (talk) 14:20, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
