Query
Either Cooper or Conrad were the first American astronaut to defecate in space on this mission. It's not exactly the same kind of milestone as spacewalking or stepping on the moon, but I saw it at http://www.doctorzebra.com/drz/s_medhx.html and was surprised it wasn't mentioned anywhere else. --Jkonrath 19:51, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Were they? Gemini 4 was a 4-day mission, it's hard to imagine that McDivitt and White shouldn't have defecated during their mission. --Proofreader 15:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- "Shouldn't have defecated?" maybe wouldn't have.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.158.48.160 (talk) 14:06, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
Mission patch incorrect?
The article shows a patch with "8 days or bust" on it. As stated in the article, NASA did not permit that quote on the official mission patch and photos of the astronauts just after landing show them wearing a patch without the quote. Is there not a photo of the official patch available? Rillian 12:52, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have placed a belated Contradiction tag on that section. At the very least, the infobox needs to state that the image is of ... what? The proposed patch? The working-model patch? The final patch minus the removable part (in which case why isn't the official final patch being shown?) --24.215.162.198 (talk) 15:04, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Astronaut's names
An edit war has seemed to have broken out over the astronauts' names. Please note that
- Also, another argument for keeping the formal names: consistency with all the crewed Gemini mission articles (3 through 12). JustinTime55 (talk) 22:55, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
