'"We're reaching an important stage in developing the spacecraft," said James Graf, project manager for Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. "The primary structure will be completed next month."'
when did he say that? 193.171.121.30 18:21, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)
"The science payload will include..." -- this describes Mars Science Laboratory paylod rather than Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter payload. This section should be moved to Mars Science Laboratory where it belongs. Mdrejhon 07:03, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Copyright Violation Tag
Copyright Violation Tag placed on 19:18, 26 Jan 2005 (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mars_Reconnaissance_Orbiter&oldid=10322550) by 12.222.161.185 (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=12.222.161.185)
Replacement page written
Hi, I've written a comprehensive (many sections) stub (mostly incomplete) replacement for the copyright infringing original in Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter/Temp. I've had a look through that pages history, and it looks like it was doomed from the start. I would like it if this replaced Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, and any original prose that is missed (and is not copyrighted elsewhere ;-) ) can be added back in later.
- It seems there was no copyright infringement in the original article. The two articles (original and Temp) have now been merged. -- Curps 07:44, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Remove Copyright Violation Tag, Transferred Temp to Original!
It’s been 2 weeks now and nothing has been done about it, so why not just remove the offending material (who ever wrote it if you want it back take it up with a system op) and place the temp page in its place. That tag is an eye sore and slows access to the non-copied material. The temp page can be made into a redirect until (someday) an op deletes it. --BerserkerBen 18:54, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- After reading though the deletion policy I have called for a vote to delete this page as a copyright infringement and to replace it with its temp. Votes_for_deletion/Mars_Reconnaissance_Orbiter
- The vote is now moot, since there was no copyright infringement after all and the two versions (original and Temp) have been merged. -- Curps 07:45, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- After much complaining on my part the copyright tag has been remove, after Curps call for merger, I merged the text from the temp article with the original and Jni(?) deleted temp article.--BerserkerBen 16:51, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I had a look at the cited 'copied' article, and couldn't find any exactly copied passages, except for the quoted text (not an infringement). I'd like to see the quote from the Mission manager gone, it isn't wiki-ish. JamesHoadley 09:36, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I have no problem with the quote being removed. --BerserkerBen 13:14, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Copyright: Don't Just Copy from the NASA site
I had to rewrite the MCS sub-subsection, it was copied.
Version before I rewrote: [1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mars_Reconnaissance_Orbiter&oldid=15358600#MCS)
NASA page on MCS: [2] (http://marsprogram.jpl.nasa.gov/mro/mission/sc_instru_mcs.html)
This page has already been suspended for copyright violation in Jan 05. JamesHoadley 19:23, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Aren't NASA pages public domain? The last copyvio was from www.space.com I think. --Bricktop 21:15, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I thought the same: All NASA publications - images or text - are public domain. Is this incorrect? Awolf002 21:38, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I might be wrong, images are certainly in the public domain, I thought website text wasn't. I was thinking the last copyvio was from NASA material, but you're right Bricktop... I think we can copy stuff from the website. Sorry for going off. I think that subsection is better rewritten anyway, there was some confusion in there about the filters.
