Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. My name is Vami, and I will be your reviewer. During this review I may make small edits such as spelling corrections, but I will only suggest substantive content changes in comments here. For responding to my comments, please use  Done,  Fixed, plus Added,  Not done,  Doing..., or minus Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. As my comments are addressed or rebutted, I will cross them out, and only my comments.

If I have demonstrated incompetence or caused offense, please let me know. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 09:14, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lead[edit]

 Done, SpaceX don't refer the launch site as "Boca Chica launch site", so I would clarify that it is other parties that named it. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, no comment. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
I added that "from Earth" originally, because some spacecraft variants will also launch from the Moon and from Mars. This is fairly fundamental to the entire Starship concept. In particular, Starship HLS is already under development -Arch dude (talk) 16:33, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Arch dude: Ah, gotcha. It's a good thing this gets touched on in the article text. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 23:57, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Starship functions a lot more than "just" being the second stage. For conventional rockets, their only function is to boost the payload. However, for Starship it would also stay in orbit (hence the word "spacecraft"), dock to other Starship, refuel, boost to other interplanetary locations, etc. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done CactiStaccingCrane (talk)

Development history[edit]

 Doing..., finding sources. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)  Done, removed the source and the payload capabilities. It is not verifiable. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, changed to The second stage and spacecraft were referred to as the "Big Falcon Ship" and the booster as "Big Falcon Booster," with similar informal names given to them. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, changed to In January 2019, Musk announced that the Starship's structure and tank would not be constructed out of carbon fiber and that stainless steel would be used instead. The strength‑to‑mass ratio of the new design should be comparable to or better than the earlier SpaceX design alternative of carbon fiber composites, from the low temperatures of cryogenic propellants to the high temperatures of atmospheric reentry. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Doing..., adding engines configurations for past designs.  Done CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, changed from second design word to form. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, no comment. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Doing..., currently rephrasing the paragraph. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)  Done, rephrased to SpaceX's iterative design philosophy is evident in the Starship development and testing program, as SpaceX is willing to regularly test prototypes to destruction, counting the data gathered as a successful part of the overall process, as well as an allowance for failures and fast cadence of prototype construction.
Here's the link, source [14]. Gimbal in spaceflight basically means that the nozzle can turn. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
I meant a link to a Wikipedia article. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 02:55, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
 Done, my mistake. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)

Starship spacecraft[edit]

 Done, removed CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, removed CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, rephrased CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, rephrased CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, removed CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, removed the name and shorten it. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, rephrased CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, fixed CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, changed avionic system to flight computer CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, applied the change. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)

Super Heavy booster[edit]

 Done, no comment CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, rewrite to On top of the bottom rings are the four four-ring sections which serve as the liquid oxygen tank wall.

Launch tower[edit]

 Done, seperate the components names to The launch tower also contains fuel pipes, data cable, and power lines in the quick disconnect arm, [...]

Finance[edit]

 Done, I am too dumb CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Doing..., wait a sec... CactiStaccingCrane (talk)  Done, change to In September 14, 2018, Yusaku Maezawa contracted SpaceX for a nine-crew private circumlunar lunar mission called the dearMoon project, in which Yusaku would give the remaining 8 seats to anyone around the world. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)

Criticism[edit]

 Done, removed. Are you sure that it is not a quotation though? CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
Well, yes, it is, but a quote isn't needed there. There's no view being expressed there; it's just a plain statement of fact. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 06:12, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GA progress[edit]

 Done, added the suggestion. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
 Done, added the suggestion. CactiStaccingCrane (talk)
