[1] is a good source of information on this stuff. Additionally, the Zond program needs pretty mission boxes like Soyuz 11 and friends. --Jkeiser 06:21, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Zond programZond programme – I'm not quite sure what the preferred WP:ENGVAR is for Russian/Soviet subjects, but I do know that the vast majority, if not all, of the other Russan/Soviet space programme articles are at the "programme" spelling, so it's likely that these (Vega program and Zond program) should be moved to that spelling, I believe.

  • Oppose essentially per Zarcadia; national ties are the only reason that spelling should be changed, and there are no strong national ties to any English speaking country. I also strongly oppose the position that all spaceflight has national ties to America; that's like saying "the USA is the largest English-speaking country, therefore the whole of Wikipedia should be en-US". That's simply not how WP:ENGVAR works. Just keep things as they are, and make sure the alternative spelling in each case has a redirect. --W. D. Graham 12:10, 14 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
The Soviet program has strong ties to the American program, it was the Cold War Space Race, so the Soviet program should use American English. It definitely has not hard ties to Britain. -- 76.65.128.252 (talk) 05:28, 16 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
It has no strong ties one way or the other. So the standard should be the predominant useage. - The Bushranger One ping only 05:32, 16 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
That's not historically accurate, otherwise there would be no Space Race article. The two superpower space programs were highly coupled in Cold War politics to each other. -- 76.65.128.252 (talk) 06:28, 17 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Suggest merge July 2017

Zond 1968A has no content not already here; the failed mission will have very little to report. What few facts there are could be moved here, and all the missions organized in tabular form. --Wtshymanski (talk) 18:24, 29 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
