Dates on living people

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. The birthdates don't need to be small on biography pages. Thank you. Tommy (msg) 14:18, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but I think they look nicer that way. Especially when they list the whole birth date, death date, and place of birth and place of death, it takes FOREVER to get to the actual information about who the person is. This way, I can visually skip the stuff (that is often in a box on the side, anyway) and the sentence reads like it should. But thanks anyway. 74.178.230.17 (talk) 14:21, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand why you didn't like it but fine. If you could explain it would help. I don't know why it was a bad thing. 74.178.230.17 (talk) 14:26, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of tags

[edit]

Do not remove {{launching/slv}} from Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle. The tag is there per the standard practice on Wikipedia and of the Rocketry WikiProject in the aftermath of a launch failure. If you have another tag to augment, add it in addition, not in the place of. -MBK004 05:30, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
