I think that the link in "type of mission" would be better served it it linked to the specific mission that visited.--Anthony 17:14, 10 March 2010 (EST)
- I like that, but it will get unwieldy for things such as the Moon, which had at least 5 missions visit it. I was planning on putting Main, Training, and Mini in the type box, and then having a "List of Missions by Type" in the article proper. -- Stefanido 17:19, 10 March 2010 (EST)
- I can see the problem, but how do you deal with the fact that some destinations have been visited by many types of missions? and the fact that there will be no direct way to determine which mission visited a given destination. I was thinking of dealing with the unweildiness by instead adding a section to the main text titled something like "List of Mission Visits". Oh, and there is a formal difference btw mini and training missions?--Anthony 17:26, 10 March 2010 (EST)
- From "Mini-mission":
Commonly confused with the training mission, the mini-mission is a half-day to full-day simulated mission staffed by personnel who are not members of Spacesim.

- Thats very interesting. So sim have taken to doing these sort of missions? Back in my day mini missions just referred to training missions (and just for fun missions), and we didn't run missions for outsiders, except for the fabled EEPs.--Anthony 17:35, 10 March 2010 (EST)
