Neutrality, Original Research, and other issues.

This entire list is full of non-neutral claims, including arguments of fact about nuclear power and/or weapons. Most of them seem to be a direct result of the organizations' entries being direct copies of their mission statements. I've cleaned up a good portion of the article but there is a significant portion left that still has these issues. This article should simply list the organizations and a breif summary of their existence, not provide a forum to argue their points or advocate their causes.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@ 15:13, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Normally when an editor is concerned that an article is POV or contains original research, he will bring in reliable new sources to improve the situation. Which additional sources have you brought in to help with POV and OR problems? Johnfos (talk) 21:39, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Another useful approach to OR is to use inline ^{[citation needed]} tags on particular statements which are in question. Then another editor can hopefully come along and add in the necessary source... Which OR statements have you tagged as "citation needed"? Johnfos (talk) 20:39, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

No response... Instead of taking the above approaches, you seem to have actually imposed your own personal pro-nuclear POV and your own unsourced OR onto the article, which really doesn't help at all, so I'm restoring the article. I will do some copyediting to smooth out some rough edges some time soon. Johnfos (talk) 02:00, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Copyright problems

I've turned the body of this article into a simple list as much of the text for each entry had been copied and pasted from various websites and so a copyright violation. I've also removed from the list any organisations which wikipedia does not have an article on. I'm not going to RevDel at this time as the previous text may be useful for someone trying to repair this article although the text removed should not be re-inserted unless you are confident it is not a copyvio.

Beyond Nuclear redirect

There is actually an anti-nuclear group called "Beyond Nuclear" in the United States - http://www.beyondnuclear.org/ - going back at least as far as 2009. At the very least, there should be a disambiguation page allowing for "Beyond Nuclear" to be covered in an article with their own name. --Nixin06 (talk) 17:20, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Have put a partial fix in place, until Beyond Nuclear gets its own article. Johnfos (talk) 01:58, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
