Category talk:Extra-vehicular activity

May 2018

{{Fill this category}}

• International Space Station astronauts complete spacewalk
• Next Shuttle flight delayed to next year; ISS crew begin spacewalk
• Emergency spacewalks planned to fix International Space Station
• Columbus module added to ISS during spacewalk
• STS-122 astronauts perform third spacewalk
• Space station crew perform successful spacewalk
• Atlantis docks, astronauts ready for spacewalk
• Expedition 10 completes first spacewalk
• Astronauts replace ISS nitrogen tank in spacewalk
• Chinese astronaut walks in space
• Technical troubles hold up International Space Station repairs - because the repairs were done during a spacewalk.

The first ten articles are obvious candidates for this category. I was thinking of naming it Category:Spacewalks but the term "extra-vehicular activity" appears to be a more popular choice on other wikis. Please also consider using {{w}} for instances of extra-vehicular activity/extravehicular activity (no hyphen) and spacewalk/space walk and creating redirects where appropriate. Cheers.

Done. --Pi zero (talk) 15:11, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

@Green Giant: I'm ambivalent over whether we want a category that would include moonwalks, or for that matter Mars-walks. Renaming this to spacewalk would help to clarify, in that regard. --Pi zero (talk) 16:34, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

@Pi zero: Fair enough, we can always cross those bridges when we reach them. Do we need a vote or can we just change it? —Green Giant (talk) 18:09, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

As you're agreeable, I think it'll be okay to just change it. Hopefully I can do that later today. --Pi zero (talk) 18:30, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
