Tu-144 Addition

[edit]

Hi Oboguev! Thanks for adding so much to the Tu-144 page! It seems most of your material comes from a single source, which is acceptable. However, when citing from a book like that, you need to include page numbers so other editors can verify your additions. Furthermore, you cite some facts here and there, but much of what you write needs to be cited. For example, specific facts such as "In 1976 during repeat-load and static testing in TsAGI, Tu-144S airframe cracked at 70% of expected flight stress with cracks running many meters both directions from the spot of their origin." need to be cited. It is acceptable to cite at the end of each paragraph, as long as all the facts in that paragraph come from the same source (i.e., you can cite "pp. 67-69, Moon, 1989" for all the content in one paragraph, if that's where it came from. If you can add these citations, your addition will be a valuable addition to Wikipedia! (Note: I am posting this on the Tu-144 talk page as well). -SidewinderX (talk) 18:41, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
