assuredly original research unless you cite who says they're a great power and when they were a great power and based on what criteria. Waltz counts great powers by "common sense." William R. Thompson counts those states possessing 5% or more of the relevant capabilities (which obviously vary for different periods) within the great power subsystem. Long cycle theorists differentiate between global and regional powers, and set the standard at 10% of naval or land power capabilities (respectively) within the great power subsystem. Moreover, great power is used more generally in colloquial speech or historical writing without any criteria or formal definition. You see the problem--many many definitions, no way to establish any clarity which would prevent Canadian nationalists or South Korean nationalists from claiming that they're a great power too. In some sense or some definitions they are.

perhaps someone like you could), and I did stop several from making some particularly dubious contributions (ex. Beagel wanted to put OPEC on the page as a separate energy superpower when the definition was clearly state-based). You should note that I was feverishly trying to at least get the reserves & production numbers sourced on all countries. This is a very new article, and it's hard to get it incredibly polished and up to standards in mere months. I am trying to get everything done by your standards, but I'd appreciate if you would contribute if you're going to critique the work of so many on the page. It smacks of being an back-seat driver who's too afraid to actually do the job themselves. If you can "pull rank", then why do you not contribute? This article has been in dire need of experts like yourself for months!

4330: 4339: 966:, it is very offensive in confront of others countries of the World, expecially former colonies of Africa and Asia! To support their wrong use of the term they continually quote some sources, but their sources are also a POV of a politically oriented group of academics and they also ignored completely others sources that affirmed the contrary of their POV! You have also to consider that the term "Power" referred to a country is very despised and avoided among the academics of Left and in countries as Germany and Italy, where the "Policy of Power" evokes negative periods of their history. The term "Great Powers" is neutral (as Knowledge required) if apllied only on historical perspective (about history before World War II or maybe the Crisis of Suez 1956) Thank you for your attention! 629:. Each paragraph begins with the particular theorist/paper/book/etc and discusses their particular contention. The article, for the most part, does not marshal primary source data chosen by wikipedians and assembled by wikipedians as evidence, unlike the superpower articles. #3, the relevant indicators chosen by scientists are scientific, and thus not nearly as arbitrary. Indicators chosen in political science are far more arbitrary, and rely principally upon the author's theoretical school (realism, liberalism, marxism, constructivism). While there is an objective measurement of global temperature and climate change, there is no objective measurement of what constitutes a superpower much less what constitutes state power within the international system. 5052: 4851: 4366: 4415: 1044:

content was still there. This is why deleting talk page content is counterproductive. People will want to know about that 3RR block on me. Removing it from my talk page makes it look like I'm trying to hide something. In general, there's no reason nor advantage to be gained from removing things from your talk page. Remember, Knowledge is not made of paper: we have plenty of space, and your talk page can get very very lengthy. The best solution for those wanting to start fresh on their talk page is to simply archive the contents, which is something that I've done for my talk page. The guideline on user pages has a helpful explanation:

4388: 1048:. There it says, 'On a user's own talk page, policy does not prohibit the removal of comments at that user's discretion, although archival is preferred to removal. Please note, though, that removing warnings from one's own talk page is often frowned upon." So while removing comments or blanking one's user talk is allowed, removing content (and specifically warnings) is frowned upon. If you have problem with a user removing warnings, as if to hide evidence or somesuch, first let them know about the above guideline, and second draw the attention of an administrator who can keep an eye on things.

Then present other sourced items saying more moderate things: "The BBC reports that Russia's energy production positions it in XYZ way regarding the international market. The DOE says ABC about Russian energy production. Etc." Within the context of multiple sources the extent of the controversy will become clear to the reader, and they can choose on their own which sources they agree with.—

And I just got rid of one of my more angry responses for your editing-sorry about not doing that after reading your reasons the first time. Anyway, someone already has a "potential energy superpower" section up on the page-all we need now is some expert opinion, a few prospective countries, and your assurance that this will pass editorial standards.

The removal indicates that the message has been seen, and that the page history can be viewed to determine any issues.

There is not much in the way of any expert opinion on Canada's uranium production on the net, but many creditable sources (not experts though) list it as having the highest production of uranium on earth. How would we possibly present Canada without being accused of perhaps advancing a biased opinion? It just seems a tragedy for the page to only concern oil and gas, whereas Canada is a huge uranium producer and isn't mentioned except as an oil/gas power.

Seems to me that otherwise, if someone were to read about the claims of a world leader's country being a superpower, that this site would not be able to discuss that topic (or be used as a reference), which is clearly something this page ought to be able to discuss (and verify the arguments for and against) that leader's comments.
