Rename away from "reactor"

I don't believe there is much of a consensus for denoting non-critical devices, especially those that operate with neutron sources, as "reactors". I also think "research reactor" generally is used for developed devices provided by a more developed country. I would suggest some selection of "Haigerloch B8/B-VIII atomic/nuclear pile" for the name. Doeze (talk) 18:12, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request for Edit, The Alsos Mission

When describing the Alsos Mission, the article states:

"The aim was not only to advance Germany's own nuclear weapons program, but also to prevent the Soviet Union and the other later occupying forces from using the knowledge."

Germany, in this sentence, should be replaced with America, as The Alsos Mission was a US Program, not a German one. ~2025-39529-92 (talk) 01:49, 9 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
