Role in selection of Artemis human landing system edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Should mention that in April 2021, (after Jim Bridestine retired), she was instrumental in the decision to select SpaceX to provide the Human Landing System for Artemis. An unexpected and controversial decision. After that her job was split with Jim Free. Plenty of sources available on this. - Rod57 (talk) 17:12, 30 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Quote in section on SpaceX career: reliable source? edit

Latest comment: 11 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The quote about giving government customers confidence regarding Starship is lifted from Eric Berger, the space journalist, on Twitter. Currently, the source cited links to a Kerbal Space Program forum in which this tweet has been embedded, for some reason.

This seems weirdly indirect to me, and in general, Wikipedia typically isn't the place to be citing random forums. I figured I might change the citation to the tweet itself, as to be more direct in regards to the quote's origin, but I'm not entirely sure whether the original tweet passes WP:SPS itself, either. If it doesn't, then I suppose I could just remove it altogether.

Given that Eric Berger is a reasonably well-known space journalist at Ars Technica, primarily focused on NASA and private aerospace companies, as well as the author of a book on the topic of SpaceX (i.e. arguably a subject-matter expert), should his tweet be considered a reliable source in this context, or does he otherwise fail the criteria of WP:SPS?

well, if you just phrase the article something like "it is rumored". Krisztián Pintér (talk) 13:55, 16 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
