List of military reactors

Obviously, Antarctica, Israel Negev Nuclear Research Center, probably Pakistan, and United States should be moved to a List of military reactors (and links to them adapted). List of United States Naval reactors could be merged into it. --Wickey (talk) 17:13, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Standardize the list

This list is very inconsistent. Is there support to start standardizing the list?

I suggest sing a table with a standard set of columns to summarize the reactors for each country.

Propose standardizing on table with the following format:

Name	Location	Type	Purpose	Status	Thermal Power [kW]	Operation Date	Closure Date	Owner and Operator	Notes
Reactor offical name (Prefer short name). Link to an article if it exists.	Nearest city/town. Do not need to add country as the list is grouped by country	List of specific types	Primary purpose that the reactor was constructed for.	Shut down Select from list of status and color the cell, usingTemplate:Table cell templates	Thermal power of the reactor in kW.	Prefer the first criticality date. Use the table date format YYYY-MM-DD for sorting	For status Shutdown -> decomissioned. Prefer the shutdown date not dinal decomissiong date. Use the table date format YYYY-MM-DD for sorting	Wikilink to the owner and operator.	Additional information on the reactor

Thoughts? Markmit (talk) 22:32, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edited original post to add proposed table format. Markmit (talk) 16:22, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Move Fusion facilities to a page dedicated to these specifically

There are a few fusion devices in the list. This list is far from comprehensive. Set-up and maintain a different list. Markmit (talk) 20:27, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
