The creation of this article[edit]

This article was originally proposed by User:Kanasnick in the WP:AfC space on about 2012-12-17, after being drafted entirely by Kanasnick in the period 2012-12-11 to 2012-12-17. The draft, with edit history, and the record of AfC reviews in late December and early January 2013 is here: Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Psychological and sociological issues affecting expeditionary space missions

It was declined for creation on several occasions between mid-December and approx. 6 Jan 2013.

After that, in early January, I attempted to "teach a man to fish..." and edited a few paragraphs of the article to help User:Kanasnick see what was being asked for. Kanasnick apparently never got to fixing the article, and still had not in early March. After that time—believing the article to be a useful one to the Spaceflight WikiProject, especially since an human expeditionary mission for 2018 had been announced in the past few weeks—I created the article on 2013-03-06, and began further editing here, in the article mainspace.

Just today, I learned that an article move would have been the preferred way to do it. I had not known that at the time. So just writing this note on the Talk page to ensure the provenance is correct. To date, the first draft, article overall scope, and all the excellent references, was written by User:Kanasnick. I did fairly extensive copyediting to get it to be less essay-like, add many wikilinks, and get sources behind most of the claims.

If anyone would like to discuss next steps for article improvement, I will be happy to join the discussion. Cheers. N2e (talk) 01:07, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Help in 'See Also'[edit]

I noticed that the first link in the 'See Also' section was 'space psychology'(blue link) and when I changed it to 'Space Psychology' it turned into a red link and I cannot put a link in it now. Please advise.--Varun T.Talk 07:06, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
