[edit] Requested move

Ionising radiation protectionRadiation protectionRadiation protection is currently a redirect to ionising radiation protection, but radiation protection involves more than just ionizing radiation. For example, there is protection against the low energy (visible light and below) electromagnetic radiation emitted by things like power lines, microwaves and cell phones. Instead of starting a separate article at radiation protection, I think that the article should be moved and expanded to cover both. Also, moving it gets rid of the United States/Commonwealth spelling difference - ionizing versus ionising, which is more pronounced than it would be otherwise because the ionizing radiation article uses the U.S. spelling. -- Kjkolb 13:26, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
