Talk:Anti-nuclear movement in the United Kingdom

Multiple issues tag

Verbal, would you care to elaborate on the multiple issues you have identified and spell out specific problems giving examples. Thanks. Johnfos (talk) 22:14, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

No reply as yet, so have restored the article. Johnfos (talk) 01:22, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

See WP:OR and WP:NPOV. The removed text was weasel worded with a distinct editorial bias, extrapolating from the text. The article is written in a non neutral essay style and could do with a review by a neutral party. Perhaps the science wikiproject could be asked? Verbal chat 06:12, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

The article is not about science, so I don't think it is appropriate to ask the science wikiproject for help. The article is about a new social movement.

I would ask again that, initially, you spell out specific problems giving examples from the text. So you should explain why the article needs additional references or sources for verification, even though it has more than twenty already. You should explain which pieces of text have led you to the conclusion that the article reads like a personal reflection or essay, etc.

As for the text which has been removed I can't see how OR or NPOV applies, as several references are provided, and I have stuck closely to what they say, so I can't see that any "extrapolation" is going on. Would it help if we said explicitly that some of the material has come from a from a New Scientist editorial?

This is only a Start class article and I'm sure there is plenty of scope for improvement, so please point out specific problems which need to be worked on. Johnfos (talk) 10:39, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Attribution would help, as we shouldn't say things in wikipedia's voice. Also, avoiding WP:UNDUE prominence and appropriately framing and contextualising viewpoints is essential. The need to observe WP:NPOV is very important in articles such as this. Verbal chat 13:59, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

The multiple issues you have with article have not been articluated and substantiated. You are still talking in generalities and not getting down to specifics. But add some context if you wish, providing the material is not off-topic. Also add a criticisms section at the end if you wish, as I think it would be useful to articulate any substantive criticisms of the Anti-nuclear movement in the UK.

For your information, my WordPress site was spammed to advertise this wikipedia page. I guess an author of this page purchased some kind of SEO service, if so you must know they use spam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.234.125.20 (talk) 18:07, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

Anti-Nuclear Member Profile

It would make the article more informative if data could be found about the type of person the protest attracts and who the campaign is intended to inform. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.68.5.114 (talk) 09:52, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Nuclear Consultation Working Group contained dead guy

"In early 2008 a group of scientists and academics forming the Nuclear Consultation Working Group released a report criticising government proposals to build a new generation of nuclear power plants.[48][49] Contributors included, amongst others:"

And one listed is [C.F. Powell] who died in 1969? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.144.42.174 (talk) 00:26, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Pre-1958 Scepticism

A mention of pre-1958 feeling would be illuminating, especially the period when Britain did not have the bomb 86.135.11.80 (talk) 15:26, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
