Hi! I appreciate and respect your concern.

I made the following changes at Comparison of orbital launch systems:

• Switched image from Falcon Heavy, which is not an especially prolific vehicle (and moreover no longer holds records for most powerful operating) to Soyuz-U, the carrier rocket with the most launches in history (and by a very wide margin).
• Changed notation for reuse from colour-italic scheme to a dedicated column. This way, the tables can be sorted by reusability. Also, it is accessibility-friendly - the failed FL nomination from 2018 mentioned the use of colour as an accessibility concern. If colour use is still desired, the Reuse column can have background-color styles set!

I hope this clarifies why I made my edits. Moreover, I do not believe that I removed any content or contributions by you, nor did I revert any changes published by anyone other than myself.

Additionally, I could not have talked to you prior to today, as your IP contribs page doesn't show any activity before yesterday.

The statistics is a list of milestones achieved. The UEA's rover is it's own vehicle, not a component as you attempt to make the comparison to. You seem confused in determining out what the differences are between the payload of a spacecraft, and the spacecraft as a whole. It wasn't intended to remain attached or tethered to a host vehicle. In addition, all rovers, regardless of deployment status are listed as separate missions and/or vehicles. This statistics is to mark milestones, not list spacecraft types. The UAE, with it's own, self contained spacecraft impacted the Moon. That milestone was achieved, end of story. Unless you're claiming the UAE did not impact the Moon with it's own spacecraft. Deployed or not. By your own logic, we should remove the United States as having "roved" because they were all deployed from carrier spacecraft (LM) and in your own words are just "payloads" not independent vehicles. The UAE impacted the Moon, and became the 9th country to do so. Anything less involves a discontinuity the the rest of the article. Claiming otherwise is bordering on disinformation. Rashid was it;s own spacecraft (not a "payload") and had it's own mission. It's also worth pointing out that the "mission type" column describes the end goal of the spacecraft, not all phases the spacecraft will achieve. If that were the case, you'd have "flyby" "orbiter" "lander" "rover" & "sample return" "mission types" for the Apollo missions. We have never separated mission type before. I find no reason to make an exception for SLIM. SLIM's goal, it's "mission type" if you will, is to land. It's a lander. It's operational as it's already begun it's first ops at the Moon. Again, that's how all list of missions to X pages deal with this sort of thing. I shouldn't have to explain consensus here. -- Jrcraft Yt ( talk) 04:52, 14 October 2023 (UTC) reply
