Parts of the article reads like it comes from press releases or advertising. Most specifically regarding capabilities and how successful launches are described. Reformulating some sentences to be more neutral would also help the general tone. Amphioxi (talk) 13:22, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Within the article, after the mention of the name in each section, can it just be referred to as "Alpha" instead of "Firefly Alpha"? Cheers! UnknownM1 (talk) 16:11, 31 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Expect delays. Firefly confirms ‘anomaly’ and fire during first stage hotfire test --mfb (talk) 13:52, 23 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
Firefly has kindly made a few tech stats available, in the users guide, does it make sense to add them to the article?--Patbahn (talk) 17:33, 16 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Should we make a notes column in the launch history table? Maybe stating that the Firefly Alpha launch yesterday had anomaly and why. Starship SN20 (talk) 22:21, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
The launch provider is not the company who determines success or failure. Firstly they're a primary source, and secondly they're labeling something that is judged externally. For other rockets, notably SpaceX, when they released payloads at a lower orbit than planned then we mark that as "partial failure". Ergzay (talk) 10:50, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
You keep stating they only partial payload deployment occurred. I've added references for all payloads being deployed. You cite celestrack TLE's as your source, but since decay has occurred, you cannot use expired TLE's alone. Because obviously there won't be TLE's for the others. I'd argue that continued use of that is bias and knowingly pushing false information. Jrcraft Yt (talk) 16:23, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Also, do you have third party sources that actually state "partial failure" rather than "success"?. Because it's speculation on your end if you don't. It's widely reported as successful. Jrcraft Yt (talk) 16:25, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
If you want to open discussion on this, go ahead, but you're going to have to show consensus in reporting for partial failure and not success. Jrcraft Yt (talk) 16:29, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
