== Community reassessment ==
 
{{WP:Good article reassessment/SpaceX reusable launch system development program/1}}
 
== Recent edits ==
 
I reverted the recent [[WP:BOLD|Bold]] and [[WP:AGF|good faith]] edits that added a detailed numeric list of all the many years of test flights to this [[WP:GA]] good article. Let's [[WP:BRD|discuss]] it on first and see if ther is a consensus for this change.
 
This article describes a long-term multi-year program of technology development for many different launch and spacecraft systems at SpaceX, and describes the development of fundamental rocket technology that Musk has said SpaceX will have failed if they don't eventually get there: fully and rapidly reusable rockets. I don't believe it will be helpful to have yet another article with a detailed count of every test flight and success/failure/who knows. Rather, this article can reference those other articles that maintain detailed counts by the particular vehicle. [[User:N2e|N2e]] ([[User talk:N2e|talk]]) 12:18, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
:You also reverted several other good changes. You also added back information that is obviously outdated. Could you please only revert the part you object to and not just blindly revert everything because you object to half a sentence? There was no "detailed numeric list", there was a first and last flight. We also list the first and last flight for a couple of other vehicles in the article, I don't see what would be different for Starhopper. --[[User:Mfb|mfb]] ([[User talk:Mfb|talk]]) 03:12, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

== Cleanup ==
 
I think an extensive cleanup of thes page is overdue. Too much now outdated or extensively detailed clutter as piled up, including statements like "SpaceX is expected to significantly reduce the cost of access to space" which sound humourous nowadays. Some stremlining and reduction to the core information is necessary, to make it understandable for the common layperson to visit it.

:Agreed.
:The current state of the article does not match its "Good Article" Status. [[User:Redacted II|Redacted II]] ([[User talk:Redacted II|talk]]) 19:16, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
 
== A good secondary source article on the SpaceX reusable technology 10 years on ==
 
Long-time space journalist Eric Berger/Ars Technica published a good secondary source summary of the results of the SpaceX reusable technology, in the 10th year after SpaceX first brought a booster back to the launch area in December 2015. [https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/08/with-recent-falcon-9-milestones-spacex-vindicates-its-dumb-approach-to-reuse/ With recent Falcon 9 milestones, SpaceX vindicates its “dumb” approach to reuse], Eric Berger, [[Ars Technica]], 28 August 2025. Would be useful to improve the article. — [[User:N2e|N2e]] ([[User talk:N2e|talk]]) 20:35, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
