Comment: I'm aware that blogs are not usually usable sources, but this one is the official blog of a scientific institution so I think it should be OK. Di (they-them) (talk) 03:19, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Article looks good and Earwig's is clear. Reviewing ALT0, the hook is interesting and is sourced well. The article cites Guinness World Records which circumvents any concern about the blog source in my opinion so it looks good. ―Panamitsu(talk)08:04, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Alt 1. Nice article, I knew little about these space pioneers before your page. To suggest a correction in the blurb, an uppercase 'Earth', thanks, but the main point of them returning to Earth with a parachute (have to make clear in was only by parachute and not in a space capsule if that is the case). The first two-time traveler to space, very good addition to Wikipedia. Randy Kryn (talk) 00:11, 31 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is an issue with the date given for Dezik & Tsygan’s flight in this article and the Soviet space dogs article. It is currently listed as August 15, 1951, presumably as this NASA reference gives this date. All other references I can find give a date of July 22, 1951, including space.com, Russian Life and Science Museum. In particular, Siddiqi on page 95 gives a date of July 22, 1951. I believe Siddiqi would be the most reliable, so will update with this reference in both articles. Ilenart626 (talk) 12:22, 22 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
