Sources to expand
editI've been meaning to expand this article with sources from The Wilson Center, Nuclear Threat Initiave,[1] Standford, International Institute for Strategic Studies Australian Strategic Policy Institute, SAGE Publications, among many others, although I will be busy with college for a few months. So I'll just leave this here if someone else wants to. DimensionQualm (talk) 02:46, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
New updates to the page and proper source links
editI made updates to the page as part of my coursework using the two most comprehensive sources that DimensionQualm linked. They listed them as "The Wilson Center" and "Nuclear Threat Initiative" (The link I have provided for the "Nuclear Threat Initiative" source is different, as the one I provided is the link to the main page rather than the pdf of the article on that page) Additionally, here is a proper link to the source that DimensionQualm shared under the name "Australian Strategic Policy Institute". I did not end up using that source, but it would likely prove to be a valuable source to any who wish to further build upon the article. HallowedChurchGrim (talk) 03:03, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
Definition
editJust to be clear, nuclear threshold, as used by strategists and scholars, means "employment of nuclear weapons", not in the sense of having the capability to develop them, but to use them. If the term "nuclear threshold state" is not defined or used by DOE/DOD or so, I would not use it in this context. The so-called "nuclear latency" used to be called "dispersion" or "diffusion". In fact, the article does not even mention the word "proliferation". Kr 17387349L8764 (talk) 15:06, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Correction, non-proliferation is mentioned, but at the very bottom. 17387349L8764 (talk) 15:10, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
