Then perhaps WG should take the time to unlock wiki for editing. :)

What SS posted looks like compelling enough evidence for me (if we don’t try to assume that injured crew XP penalty is 50%, that is); it’s water under the bridge now, though.

Everything goes red when your tank is destroyed, it doesn’t mean your crew is dead. There is no crew penalty for loss, only for a dead crewmember at the end of a battle specifically. If you medkit that crewmember, no penalty either.

So far we have no certain evidence that the mission didn’t work – the possibility of the crewmember in question having been killed by the shot that destroyed the tank remains.

“Extensive” might be a bit too much, but yes – it’s not enough for the tank to be destroyed, crew member must be injured by a shell to get XP penalty (this includes the possibility of the same shell injuring crew member and destroying the tank – so you don’t get the chance to revive him).

IIRC Snib or Trent, or someone cleverer than me, did extensive testing of crew exp penalties and found they do not take a penalty unless they are already dead when the tank is destroyed.
