Demolition of the Plutonium Finishing Plant at the Hanford Site
- ... that the Plutonium Finishing Plant (pictured), which processed more than 66 metric tons of plutonium between 1949 and 1989, was demolished between 2016 and 2021? Source: pp. 28-29 and [1]

QPQ done, sources look good, article looks clean of issues, images are all good. I'm having trouble finding the hook expressed in the article. Where can I find it? ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:32, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- I have tweaked the text. Last sentence of operations: "Between 1949 and 1989, the Plutonium Finishing Plant had produced more than 66 metric tons of plutonium.[24]" First sentence of cleanup and demolition: "Demolition work began in 2016.[52]" Second last sentence: "all demolition and cleanup work was completed in November 2021."

- Are you doing math by assessing the graphs on the cited pages from this document? ~ Pbritti (talk) 22:10, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- The table on p. 29. I subtracted production for 1947-1949 (946) from the total up to 1989 (67,363) = 66,417. There was six months of production in 1949, so it would have been a bit higher. Routine calculations are permissible. (WP:AVRC) Hawkeye7 (discuss) 02:31, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
Calculations like that definitely are ok, just was making sure that the source lined up. We're good here, nice job! ~ Pbritti (talk) 04:20, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Hawkeye7, I will review this nomination. It's a shame this review was not picked up for so long. I will try to get it completed within a reasonable amount of time. Matarisvan (talk) 06:13, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
