I'm adding infoboxes for several Soyuz versions, as a first step in moving that information into separate articles. Not a very nice layout right now, but keeps all info in one place. Ricnun 22:55, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
it is unclear to me the differences and relationships between the different LK-XX spacecraft.. but it strikes me that instead of having a different subsection for each one, the reader would benefit more from have a couple of paragraphs outlining the differences, and developments. i'll take a crack at this, but i might get something wrong.

I reverted this edit, which was made with the comment, "Deeper meaning to 'Soyuz' in relation to Soviet nationalism". I would like to have this content be part of Wikipedia, but I was concerned that it was not properly sourced and may not have been NPOV. Also, the soyuz programme article might be a better place for discussion of the meaning of the name. ( sdsds - talk) 20:33, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Says diameter is 13.61 ft/2.72 m and height 57.44 ft/7.48 m . Isn't a meter just over 3 feet? 69.95.76.15 23:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
"Volume = 254.27 sq ft (23.622 m2)" doesn't make much sense as m² is a measure for area. also the conversion sq ft - m² is off by a factor near 10, so apparently someone forgot the last digit of the sq ft-number —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.192.251.21 ( talk) 16:40, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
"At one meter above the ground, solid-fuel braking engines mounted behind the heat shield are fired to give a soft landing."
Is it just me or does the braking engines firing at just above 3 feet off the ground seem a tad low?? JamieHughes ( talk) 02:59, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
This article lacks one of most important statistic for any spacecraft: how much was flown and how much succesfully. I know about two flights that ended in LOC, but how much was flown in general?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Madcio ( talk • contribs) 16:46, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
It is the most successful/safest/most reliable spacecraft in history, judging from number of mission to number of problems arising from those missions.
Really? The one spacecraft type that has outlived all other spacecraft types in terms of service duration does something 'unusual'? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.107.0.81 ( talk) 18:20, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
This article says:
Soyuz TMA (A: антропометрический, Antropometricheskii meaning anthropometric) features several changes to accommodate requirements requested by NASA in order to service the International Space Station, including more latitude in the height and weight of the crew and improved parachute systems.
I think this section should state the approximate maximum cosmonaut height of the Soyuz TM and the Soyuz TMA. Neutrino1200 ( talk) 06:16, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
Reentry Module and Descent Module seem to be used interchangeably throughout the text. Which is the correct term that should then be used consistently throughout the article? CliffVHarris ( talk) 12:43, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
As a data point, currently the NASA web page discussing the Soyuz module uses the Descent Module term (capitalized) exclusively. Damienjr ( talk) 18:15, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
From the Design section:
(I inserted convert templates to get English units to make comprehension and verifiability easier for US users.) This has been here a long time, and not a citation in sight. And there just sounds like wild speculation about the Lunar Module. The guidelines say we're not just supposed to lump facts together to make conclusions. And the purpose of the article is to present information about the Soyuz, not to bash Apollo. JustinTime55 ( talk) 17:41, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

15:55, 12 October 2014 (UTC)Yes, that part of the article is a summary of Soyuz, so no Apollo talk. Any comparison should be to earlier Soviet spacecraft, not with Apollo. Really Apollo vs Soyuz deserves it' own section, but further down the article.

Isn't the new TsVM-101 already used within the Soyuz TMA-Series? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.22.24.219 ( talk) 08:36, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
@ Timothy Robinson12345: I just noticed your template. I'm not one of the people who wrote this article, just a visitor who is keen on spaceflight, writing an article which mentions the Soyuz, who came here looking for information about the Soyuz rocket. To me, it doesn't seem excessive at all. The Soyuz is one of the most important rockets in the world. It's currently the only rocket that sends humans into space and it's also the main rocket used for supplies to the ISS and it's been around since the start of the space race so historically it's one of the most important rockets there is. So with that background, this page seems rather short if anything. I'd like to see a bit more detail. Does that answer you? I think the template should be removed myself.

The Soyuz MS-10 abort has brought to light information that the the launch abort system (SAS) has two components, the escape tower with one engine and a shroud with four. Because the abort occured after tower jettison but before the shroud separated there was some confusion as to whether the launch abort system fired. It did, but since the tower was already gone the shroud alone pulled the crew away from the rocket. If more detail about the SAS can be sourced with citations it should be used to amend the relevant sections as well as the MS-10 page which simply states the capsule returned to Earth in a ballistic trajectory.

How can the article make this claim for Soyuz when Shenzhou is also in service? 2600:1:C304:C2F2:B396:3119:4797:65AD ( talk) 01:33, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
