[edit]
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, strontium-90. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Kolbasz (talk) 22:11, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (
or

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

[edit] Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:
- On the Nuclear safety and security page, your edit caused a URL error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Disambiguation link notification for February 3
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Nuclear safety and security, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Watts. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Nuclear economics
[edit]Thanks for your message. I agree with you about the lack of balance in the Economics of nuclear power plants. The article appears to emphasize every anti-nuclear activist. The first paragraph of the overview section in particular should be a summary of both sides, rather than just a compilation of anti-nuke quotes. That said, I believe that my edits were good. You don't specify which of my edits you disagree with. I removed the line calling someone a "fake expert," but that was a highly POV statement not contained in the cited source; it was sure to be removed sooner or later. Unless you can quote a reliable source calling him a fake expert, that just didn't belong. The line about nuclear being the only viable alternative to prevent global warming was about environmental impact, and said nothing about economics, and so was off-topic. Now if the "only viable alternative" statement were changed slightly to "the most economic non-carbon emitting baseload," or something similar, that would be appropriate for this article, assuming that it is properly sourced. The article needs to be balanced, but in a bullet-proof way that follows the Wikipedia guidelines, and that cannot be reasonably reverted. I welcome your comments, and I hope that we can find common ground in making the article more balanced. Regards. Plazak (talk) 13:18, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

"There are a large number of exciting proposals for new reactors which exemplify the great promise that nuclear fission shows in providing abundant cheap energy" is a statement of opinion which doesn't belong in the article. Likewise, you can't state as a fact that somebody is a false authority. Either the statement can be included without editorializing, or it should not be included at all. See the guideline on "peacock terms" and the policy of neutrality. (Please don't unilaterally re-write sections of the article; instead, go to the talk page and discuss the changes you intend to make, and don't go ahead without consensus.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 15:11, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
- Did you read anything I have written? You can't add statements of opinion into articles; articles need to be written in a neutral and factual manner. It's good that you have gone to the talk page, but "discuss the change" doesn't mean "state your position and then go ahead with the change". Even if the article is biased, you can't counter that by adding more blatantly partisan content. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 05:57, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
- Again, please stop reverting to your preferred version! Several user have noted that your phrasing is inappropriate. If you continue revert warring, I will protect the article from editing, or ask another administrator to do the same. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 15:49, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
