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.

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]

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.

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 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. Johnfos 06:44, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Johnfos, I'll admit to favoring nuclear energy as a solution to the problems of pollution and climate change. My intent, though, was to remove a lot of anti-nuclear bias. The article included many anti-nuclear contentions as though they were facts. I can't account for what impressions you got. It's a fact that some critics of anti-nukes have specialized knowledge in the area of nuclear energy. For whatever scientific training they have, neither Lovins or Lowe every worked in that field. Actually, Lovins has never done scientific work since he left college and Lowe has always been an educator. In any event, references to them would belong somewhere other than in the Criticism section.

Part of the anti-nuclear argument is that renewables can render nuclear energy unnecessary. I don't see how the article could be complete with only that position described and no description of the opposing position. Your own position is that renewables are being rapidly commercialized; that's a viewpoint open to challenge, and doesn't address their limitations.

Your basic point is probably right. The subject is contentious, with different contributors adding their own perspectives. Even if a final authority existed, advocates of different viewpoints would still dispute his version. It doesn't hurt to post a disclaimer tag at the top, although most people would approach the article aware of its controversial nature. Actually, a lot of articles deserve that tag, including the ones you referenced. Cde3 17:18, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
