This seems like an obvious and non-controversial merge. Any objections? (Sdsds - Talk) 01:40, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Current article name is Anik (satellite). However, as a commenter mentioned recently, this is not really about a satellite, it is about a series of satellites. ("Not a derelict satellite, but a series of space craft. If some are derelict, then create redirects and put the category on those!") Fair enough. It is an article about the series, but also is the only Wikipedia article on any of the individual satellites and their particular spaceflight missions.
In other words, the article is about three things:
So here is the issue that is worthy of some discussion: If, as the commenter suggested, the article should not be included in Category:Communications satellites in geostationary orbit, then, by the same logic, as a "series of space craft", it should not be included in Category:Communications satellites in geostationary orbit either. So which way should we go, for consistency?
I'm guessing that Wikipedia guidelines would say to include Category designators for each and everything the article is about, but am not real familiar with those. Let's discuss. Cheers. N2e (talk) 15:55, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
@2A02:A03F:28B4:6700:F48F:3A4A:78D5:1FEA: Hi, I wanted to discuss the removal of SatelliteCoverage external links (with anyone involved with this article). Looking at the website, it seems like a relevant addition and adds to the article, but that was challenged and removed it as a "spam link." To avoid edit wars, I think it'd be best to discuss here before reverting any more. I personally don't think it's a spam link and it looks like it adds to the article. Anyone else have an opinion on that external link? Thanks, Appable (talk) 20:12, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
