Error in crew info?[edit]

I think there's an error in the info about the crew selection, because as it's presented, it's almost contradictory. It states that the original pilots selected for Soyuz 1 & 2 were Komarov and Bykovsky, with Gagarin and Nikolayev as backups, then says that the Central Committee changed it to... the same people. It then mentions Beregovoi being put off until Soyuz 3, even though he wasn't part of the original list. (The German version, from which this article was translated, appears to say the same thing.) This leads me to suspect that Beregovoi was supposed to be listed among the original selection... but that's just speculation, and I couldn't guess which slot. Does anyone have access to sources that would confirm what the correct info is? -Jason A. Quest (talk) 23:33, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
