  • Article was expanded 5x. It is neutral and cites sources inline. Following issues need to be addressed: 1) In the infobox under "Site History" the reference #1 for "In use" does not support 1947-1967,2) There is no mention of “"Elevation" as "491 m" under "Airfield information" in the infobox, 3) Establishment of the site "on April 24, 1947" is given by ref #3 and not by ref #2, 4) "CIEES remained in use until June 1, 1967" is not supported by ref #2 nor #3, 5) The entire text under "List of directors of CIEES" lacks citation, 6) The number of total launches as "230" does not adds up in ref #8. No noteworthy similarities are reported by "Earwig's Copyvio Detector". The hook (I prefer the original one) is well-formatted and interesting. Its length is within limit. Its fact is referenced offline, for which I AGF. QPQ is not done. Possibly, the nominator has less than five DYN's. I will approve after all six a.m. issues are addressed.

  • I've addressed the issues you brought up. Please take a look at the article and let me know if you have any further concerns. And I have less than five DYN's. Thank you for reviewing my submission! Chumash11 (talk) 13:28, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
  • Everything is fine now. Good to go. CeeGee 06:33, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
  • Looking to promote this, I find the proposed hooks are not supported by the article. I would like to suggest ALT2.
  • New reviewer needed to check ALT2. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:34, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
@Chumash11: Not sure if all the bolding in the History section is necessary. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:10, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for the feedback. I changed the bolding to italics and further referenced the hook. The book I cited can be found on Google Books here (the fact that Felicette is the only cat to have successfully traveled to space is on p.228). I also added a video (in French, unfortunately) of a 1963 broadcast from the French national public broadcaster about Felicette mentioning her launch from CIEES. With these new references, I would vote for the original hook, or "ALT3" below:
ALT3... that the only cat to successfully travel into space, Félicette, was launched from the Centre interarmées d'essais d'engins spéciaux? Source:Burgess, Colin; Chris Dubbs. Animals in Space: From Research Rockets to the Space Shuttle p.228
  • ALT3 should be good to go then: verified inline in an offline source (so AGF), and is interesting and mentioned in the source. Also seems to address the issues raised above. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:23, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
