Rewrite of the lead badly needed

edit
Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The lead paragraphs seems to have too much emphasis on the launch delays (undue weight) -- one paragraph on mission objectives and three paragraphs on launch delays seems problematic. The lead should be a summary of the article rather than blow-by-blow description of a single type of event, IMO.

The launch delays are also already covered in sufficient detail elsewhere in the article, so I would like to propose a rewrite of the article lead to significantly condense the launch delays to perhaps a sentence or two. Any issues with that? I'd be happy to take a stab at it. Comments welcome.

Also, I don't feel the foam hit is sufficiently notable enough to warrant inclusion in the lead as it occurs on every launch, though certainly has a place in a launch section. So I'm also proposing the foam hit in the lead be deleted since it's already covered in the FD1/launch section and isn't particularly notable enough to stand out as needing a place in the lead.

I can see where your coming from Dsf. However I think the launch delays should have more then a sentence or 2, seeing as there was a couple different reasons why the launch was delayed. I think maybe a full paragraph would be better, with the details in the launch delays section. What do you think?
Also, the foam liberation is notable for this flight. Your right the tank does shed foam on every flight, but this tank shed an ice frost ramp and foam from the intertank region. While the IFR isn't notable as it has happened before, it hasn't happened in a while. Also the intertank region hasn't shed as much foam as what was seen like on 127 in a long time. I think based on the shear amount of foam that was lost makes it a reasonable inclusion in the lead. That and the fact that it was a major point of discussion at both FRR's for 128.
That's just my thoughts. I think a rewrite of the lead is a good idea and am not against it, I just want to make sure it adequately summarizes the mission.--Navy blue84 (talk) 23:55, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

The table in the "Launch Attempts" section is all messed up (and has been since 18 May 2011). I don't know enough about editing to fix it. Can somebody help?Bob305 (talk) 03:12, 15 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
