Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Turboencabulator has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIS5n9Oyzsc. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Hello, I'm Arxiloxos. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living person on John V. Tunney, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please note that freerepublic.com, which you did cite for one assertion, is not generally considered to be a reliable source for this kind of content. Arxiloxos (talk) 23:19, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to John V. Tunney. Your edits also appear to violate Wikipedia's requirements for neutral point of view and no original research. Please review these policies carefully. Arxiloxos (talk) 00:06, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Pm-147

In the main article, Pm-147 is said to have a power of about 2 watts per gram. According to calculations by the ORIGEN-2 program from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the power output is only 0.3328 W/gm. ORIGEN-2 reports radioactivity of 34.31 TBq/gm, which is consistent with a half life of 2.62 years. (One can calculate radioactivity/gm from half life, atomic weight, and Avogadro's constant.) Using power output, radioactivity, and the conversion factor 1 Joule = 6.242e12 MeV gives an average energy of 60.53 keV/Bq-s. This is consistent with the JEFF database, which reports average beta energy of 61.96 keV/Bq-s, and average gamma energy of 4.37 eV/Bq-s. The NNDC interactive chart of nuclides reports average beta energy of 61.93 keV/Bq-s. I think the number in the main article is wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Van.snyder (talk • contribs) 20:47, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

A1B reactor

On 6-July you added a statement to A1B reactor: Other than Chernobyl, no municipal electric power nuclear reactor has ever caused a death or injury. I just removed it, it's not accurate, at least two technicians at Fukushima Daichi received beta burns from contaminated water, and several people died as a result of the evacuations, which can be traced directly to the nuclear reactor accident rather than the tsunami. The statement isn't even appropriate for the paragraph where you added it. Tarl N. (discuss) 03:57, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Should have been "death or illness." According to Annex A, entitled ``Levels and effects of radiation exposure due to the nuclear accident after the 2011 great east-Japan earthquake and tsunami, of the report ``Sources and Effects of Ionizing Radiation, Volume I prepared by the United Nations Scientific Committee for the Effects of Atomic Radiation that was presented to the United Nations General Assembly in 2013, ``No radiation-related deaths or acute diseases have been observed among the workers or general public exposed to radiation from the accident... discernible increase in cancer incidence in this population that could be attributed to radiation exposure from the accident is not expected.

The deaths during the evacuation were not caused by radioactive materials. They were caused by incompetence. "Rescue" workers were prosecuted for removing people from life support to prevent the one-in-a-billion chance that they would be exposed to dangerous levels of radioactivity. Instead of evacuation, the advice should have been "Shelter in place. Drink bottled water. Do not eat locally-grown food. Wait for further advice." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.79.7.57 (talk • contribs) 23:25, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

The above being true or not, the original statement was false. Two technicians were injured with beta burns by a municipal reactor. Tarl N. (discuss) 01:50, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
