Comparison with similar good article

[edit]

This is the only "Wind power in ....." good article I can find so I read it looking for ideas for Wind power in Turkey which is being reviewed by Vice regent. I would welcome your expert comments at Talk:Wind power in Turkey/GA1 Chidgk1 (talk) 11:23, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How does it fit in to Energy in South Australia?

[edit]

42% of electricity gen is mentioned but not the % of Energy in South Australia - suggest you add. Does SA have a plan to replace oil usage with electricity and if so will electric cars balance variable renewables? How does wind power supply fit with electricity demand e.g. seasonal variation?

More than one section was tagged months ago as needing update. If someone is willing to update please let me know and I will then check for and list anything else needed to keep it good.Chidgk1 (talk) 08:04, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend delisting. It has been eight days since the review started with no improvement. Parts of the article are really repetitive, for example:

  • Construction of Stage 1 began in September 2015 and was finished in September 2017. Stage 1 consists of 32 turbines each having a rated capacity of 3.2 MW (total 102.4 MW). Construction of Stage 2 began in July 2016 and was finished in June 2017. Stage 2 consists of 32 turbines each having a rated capacity of 3.2 MW (total 102.4 MW). Construction of Stage 3 began in April 2017 and was finished in December 2017. Stage 3 consists of 35 turbines each having a rated capacity of 3.2 MW (total 112 MW).

The article also has a questionable overlap with List of wind farms in South Australia and the Operational wind farms section feels more like a list than an article. The short sections do not make for good readability. Finally, when I see the 2011 Renewable Energy Plan section, I wonder if there have been any other or more recent plans relating to wind energy.

Delisting as no longer meets GA criteria 3a to be broad in its coverage and address the main aspects of the topic Chidgk1 (talk) 13:44, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
