Bibliography
edit- Heister, S. D., Anderson, W. E., Pourpoint, T. L., Cassady, J., & Cassady, R. J. (2019). Rocket propulsion (Vol. 47). Cambridge University Press.[1]
- This is a book published by a university press, so it is reliable. It goes into great detail on how liquid propelled rocket engines work, among other types of rocket engines. It will be helpful for filling in any content gaps in the article, as well as comparing and contrasting liquid propelled rockets with other types of propulsion.
- Turner, M. J. (2008). Rocket and spacecraft propulsion: principles, practice and new developments. Springer Science & Business Media.[2]
- This is a Spring published book, so it is likely reliable. It gives a higher level overview of rocket propulsion systems, and describes the components of a liquid propellant rocket engine. It will be helpful in giving insights into why liquid propelled rocket engines are so widely used in the industry today.

Outline of proposed changes
editCurrently, the Wikipedia article on Liquid Propelled Rockets does not describe any of the advantages that liquid propulsion provides. I believe that this is a key detail about the technology, as the use of liquid propellants is one of the main reasons why rockets are able to deliver things into orbit with such precision. I plan on adding a section that describes the utility of liquid propulsion systems.
Now that you have compiled a bibliography, it's time to plan out how you'll improve your assigned article.
In this section, write up a concise outline of how the sources you've identified will add relevant information to your chosen article. Be sure to discuss what content gap your additions tackle and how these additions will improve the article's quality. Consider other changes you'll make to the article, including possible deletions of irrelevant, outdated, or incorrect information, restructuring of the article to improve its readability or any other change you plan on making. This is your chance to really think about how your proposed additions will improve your chosen article and to vet your sources even further. Note: This is not a draft. This is an outline/plan where you can think about how the sources you've identified will fill in a content gap. |
