Comment
[edit]Hello. Just would like to affirm that Chinakpradhan has been a very valuable editor at the Mars 2020 collection, including the Perserverance (rover) and Ingenuity (helicopter) pages. Much of what those pages look like, and what they share with readers, is because of Chinakpradhan's work. I would like to ask for consideration of a lesser ban than indef, because it seems that what's upsetting Chinakpradhan, who has never had a block before, is that they are experiencing this event as their Wikipedia work ending when, hopefully, that is far from the case. Would ask for clarification, and hopefully the block will be reduced to time served, or a week in the slammer, or something closer to a normal first block. Thanks.

- Randy Kryn, you're invited to help remove the copyright violations that Chinakpradhan added across those articles; I just spent a half hour addressing the ones at the two articles you linked. I can see from the history that they have made constructive edits beyond just adding copyright violations, but until we can be confident that they actually understand roprcopyright well enough to not repeat their errors, I don't think an unblock is appiate. signed, Rosguill talk 19:33, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Rosguill. What I recall is Chinakpradhan adding dozens of NASA images, which I would think would be in public domain but haven't actually checked. Aside from that, I don't know if I'd recognize a copyright violation, but thank you for taking the time to clear up some of those important articles. My comment above pertains to a first block of an often productive editor being an indef, and hoped that a lesser ban could be applied to relieve some of the anxiety of an addicted, as we all are, Wikipedian being indeffed and not having gone through any type of banning process before. Then a talk page ban because that good faith anxiety became evident in discussions here, and in concerning language I've never seen before on Wikipedia (which should actually be used as an example of the depth of Wikipedia addiction, a real thing). As for Chinakpradhan understanding copyright violations, hopefully that understanding has been further ingrained because of this experience, and nobody can be sure unless they are allowed to both discuss it and have an eventual chance, as an unblocked editor in good standing, to field-test their new understanding.

- I'm not going to unblock an editor that has yet to demonstrate a basic understanding of copyright policy. They're welcome to make a UTRS request to be unblocked. Chinakpradhan, if you're reading this, the answers you need are in the first three sentences of WP:COPYPASTE. signed, Rosguill talk 02:26, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

The Double Asteroid Redirection Test, abbreviated as DART, was a NASA space mission aimed at testing a method of planetary defense against near-Earth objects. The target asteroid, Dimorphos, is a minor-planet moon of the asteroid Didymos. DART was launched on 24 November 2021 and had successfully collided with Dimorphos on 26 September 2022 about 11 million kilometers (6.8 million miles) from Earth. The collision shortened Dimorphos' orbit by 32 minutes and was achieved by the momentum transfer associated with the recoil of the ejected debris, which was larger than the impact. This video is captured by a 20-centimeter aperture camera called the Didymos Reconnaissance and Asteroid Camera for Optical navigation (DRACO) and shows a compiled time lapse of DART's final 5 and a half minutes until impact. credit: Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
