Talk:List of states with nuclear weapons

Statistics and force configuration graph

The graph is misleading in that it combines all retired, stockpiled, and deployed weapons that are clearly separated giving much better context in the original FAS table here; https://fas.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Inventories2017-2.png The date of the data should also be included in it's description.Doyna Yar (talk) 16:44, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi Doyna Yar I agree with your point that the graph in it's current format does not correctly represent the number of deployed nuclear weapons. But the reason I think keeping a chart is useful for pictorial representation purposes where a reader can look at it and understand the relative sizes of the nuclear arsenals. Perhaps a better edit here would be to update the chart with only the deployed numbers and moves the other numbers (cold storage) down to the table. What do you think about this?

Done. Chart differentiating retired, stockpiled, and deployed weapons included via Timeline template, just as the one in the source. WisdomTooth3 (talk) 07:09, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

I reverted your edits. Can you please change one thing at a time and not change the order of images, graphs, table. If you wish to do that, discuss here first. Adamgerber80 (talk) 15:40, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

list of lost nukes ?

it is here any list of lost nukes/accidents involving nukes ? 2A00:1028:9198:E50E:80C:4E61:B1C4:5056 (talk) 11:16, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

No we do not have one at this time in the article.Slatersteven (talk) 12:05, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Should we also cover states that had active nuclear weapons programs?

I couldn't find a Wikipedia page specifically for states that had active nuclear weapons programs but disbanded them. I think such states belong on this page, and that it would be of interest to readers. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:57, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

This has been a topic of discussion before. The main problem is that it becomes impossible to draw the line. It might be interesting to have an article that covers those cases, but let's not relive the fights over this article. NPguy (talk) 02:41, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
