==Adding More sources tag==

I'm adding a More sources tag to this article because there are many unsourced statements. There are also quite a few blog sources (eg., blogspot.com) which are cited and which are unacceptable on WP. These should be removed. The other thing is that at the very least the title of the source document, not just the URL, should be given in the reference list.

==Adding POV tag==

I've been watching this article for some time and it's ironic that an article with the title Anti-nuclear movement has now become one of the most pro-nuclear on WP. This is mainly due to contributions from Cde3.
Reading the criticism section one gets the opinion that all the nuclear experts are pro-nuclear. This is clearly not the case as physicists such as [[Amory Lovins]] and [[Ian Lowe]] have "specialist technical knowledge" and are anti-nuclear. As far as pro-nuclear environmentalists go, Lovelock and others have their critics, yet this seems to be overlooked in the article.

Various disparaging comments are made about renewable energy technologies, yet the reality is that many renewables are being [[Renewable energy commercialization|rapidly commercialized]] as part of [[The Clean Tech Revolution]].

There is much more that could be said. In short the article needs a more balanced perspective. [[User:Johnfos|Johnfos]] 06:44, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Revision as of 06:44, 12 October 2007

I don't really see what possible justification there is for redirecting this to Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, an article about a UK-based group opposing one aspect of nuclear technology, rather than to anti-nuclear, (which isn't but should be) about the more general international movement.

I can see one obvious reason: To promote the organisation in question. But perhaps that's unkind.

As a (generous IMO) peace (;-> offer, let's try a disambig. Andrewa 16:20, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Antinuclear wiki

Is there any antinuclear wiki?. --HybridBoy 13:22, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If by anti-nuclear, you mean a wiki centered around the environmental dangers of the anti-nuclear movement, then I do know of one. -Theanphibian (talk • contribs) 22:39, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
