Brazil has successfully launched a satellite earlier this year. Should it be added to the launch-capable countries? [1] [2]

What is the proper country attribution for the Arab Sat satellites? I'm referring to this string of edits, all of which are in good faith (there was a typo earlier that's been corrected), but I'm not sure if the 1985 launch, or the 2000 launch should be listed.
In a related note, there needs to be a lot better attribution with cites for all of these dates. Dates like this are often targets of vandals making subtle changes, and adding in citations is the best way to combat that. Obviously people adding in specific dates have some source they're reading from. Shadowjams ( talk) 22:22, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

A credible web site says there are about 2,666 operational satellites orbiting Earth. This article says 1,900. Who's right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.163.124.210 ( talk) 19:07, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

"In the context of spaceflight, a satellite is an object that has been intentionally placed into orbit. These objects are called artificial satellites to distinguish them from natural satellites such as Earth's Moon."
These two sentences contradict each other, or at least semantically very much not clear what satellite is, only artificially orbited objects are satellites or what. 91.82.182.182 ( talk) 22:05, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
