Europa Clipper commemorative vault plate, etched with waveforms of the word "water"
Europa Clipper is a space probe developed by NASA and scheduled for launch in October 2024. The largest spacecraft NASA has built for a planetary mission, Europa Clipper is designed to study Jupiter's moon Europa through a series of flybys while in orbit around Jupiter, with the goals of exploring Europa, investigating its habitability, and aiding in the selection of a landing site for the future Europa Lander. It is expected to reach its destination in 2030. This photograph shows a commemorative plate, 7 by 11 inches (18 by 28 centimeters) in size and made of tantalum, that is attached to the outside of the space probe to seal an entrance to a vault designed to protect the electronics from Jupiter's radiation. The outer face of the plate, pictured here, is etched with waveforms of audio recordings of the word water translated into 103 languages, radiating outwards from a representation of the American Sign Language sign for the same word. The inner face of the plate features a work by the American poet Ada Limón.Photograph credit: NASA / JPL-Caltech; photographed by Ryan Lannom

POTD Test Code

[edit]
  • TEST 01: The code {{POTD/{{#time:Y-m-d}}|image}} just displays the file name without a hyperlink:
    Europa Clipper commemorative plate 1.jpg
  • TEST 02: This extended code (derived from TEST 01) does not work at all:
    {{POTD/{{#time:CURRENTYEAR-CURRENTMONTH-CURRENTDAY}}|image}}
  • TEST 03: The code within this template extracted from Wiki Commons does not work as planned within the English Wikipedia:
    {{picture of the day|year=2015|month=02|day=07}}
  • This is the Wikipedia code variant (displayed below):
    {{Pic of the day|date=2019-08-13}}

BMW S1000RR
The BMW S1000RR is a sport bike made by BMW Motorrad. It was introduced in 2008, initially for competition in the 2009 Superbike World Championship, and has been in commercial production since then. Powered by a 999 cc (61.0 cu in) four-cylinder engine, redlined at 14,200 rpm, it delivers 133.6 kW (179.2 hp; 181.6 PS) to the rear wheel, making it the most powerful motorcycle in the class. Rubén Xaus and Troy Corser rode the bike for its inaugural Superbike World Championship in 2009, gaining highest finishes of fifth and seventh respectively, but it achieved greater success in the 2010 FIM Superstock 1000 championship season, with rider Ayrton Badovini winning every single race but one on the S1000RR.Photograph credit: Stefan Krause

My first Wikipedia article

[edit]
  • Retrieved from User talk:Franz van Duns on 2023-12-03.
  • As I in the meantime have fulfilled a sufficient number of edits within Wikipedia I am now classed as "autoconfirmed", which entitles me to create articles myself without posting a request.
  • I surmise that I should continue to first create a "draft article", which, when enriched with sufficient content, I may then convert into a regular Wikipedia article.
Fujifilm GFX100 II, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
