Split
This material badly needs to be reorganized. We currently have the following related articles:
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng, which discusses three launches and the program
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng-2 which discusses only the third launch
- North Korean ballistic missile program, badly writyten and out-of-date
- Korean Committee of Space Technology, almost empty
The normal organization would be:
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng, a disambiiguation page
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng program discussing the background, technology etc. of all the launches
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng-1, discussing the first launch
- Kwangmyŏngsŏng-2, discussing the second launch
Compare for example Apollo, Apollo program, Apollo 11. In this specific case, it might be possible to skip the Kwangmyŏngsŏng program article and put that detail into Korean Committee of Space Technology (until they start multiple follow-on programs), with links and some duplication in North Korean ballistic missile program.

- I would prefer leaving the background article here (ie Kwangmyŏngsŏng rather than Kwangmyŏngsŏng programme or such), but other than that I agree. --GW… 17:30, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, and the second launch should be split to Gwangmyeongseong-2, the third to Kwangmyŏngsŏng-2. --GW… 17:33, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- I know in other some other cases, failures are only discussed on the program page and not given their own article. Mars 4 in the Mars probe prgram appears to be one such. A number of Explorer program failures do not have individual articles - but neither do a number of successful launches on that list. Rmhermen (talk) 17:41, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- As far as I know, the de facto project attitude is that all satellites qualify for articles. This would be no exception. Mars 4 is on my to do list. --GW… 19:04, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

- I've gone ahead and split Kwangmyŏngsŏng-1. It shouldn't be controversial as we've been splitting articles like this off for months. --GW… 21:44, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Agree. It should mirror other space programs' formatting. Annihilatron (talk) 15:14, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
It's a year and a half later, and the news item has calmed down, but this issue hasn't been resolved. As discussed about, I think many details on the individual launched should be moved to the relevant articles; at the moment it looks like there is a lot of unnecessary duplication. Mlm42 (talk) 23:48, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
- I have made a start on the clean up, and created a disambiguation page. More work will need to be done, and links to Kwangmyŏngsŏng will need to be checked to find out which article they should be aimed at. SilkTork *YES! 11:27, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned references in Kwangmyŏngsŏng program
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Kwangmyŏngsŏng program's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "BMD":
- From Kwangmyŏngsŏng-1: "Missile Defense Testing Needed to Meet North Korean Threat". Heritage Foundation. 1999-07-29. Retrieved 2009-04-05.
- From India: "India successfully test-fires interceptor missile". Times of India. Jul 26, 2010. Retrieved 14 January 2011.
