I'd like to replace the Environmental technology template with one that matches the standard navbox style, i.e. horizontal instead of vertical, collapsing and typically placed at the bottom of article pages. I've done a mock up of what this would look like at {{User:Jwanders/ET}}. Figured this was a big enough change that I should post before going ahead with it. Please discuss here--jwandersTalk 22:03, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
Improve this article.

Orphaned references in Sustainable energy
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Sustainable energy's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "NREL":
- From Solar power in the United States: Bird, Lori; Heeter, Jenny; Kreycik, Claire (November 2011). "Solar Renewable Energy Certificate (SREC) Markets: Status and Trends" (PDF). National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Retrieved 2011-12-23.
- From Amonix: "Bulk Power Generator Produces More Power Per Tower" (PDF). National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Retrieved Nov 2010.
{{cite web}}
: Check date values in:|accessdate=
(help) - From Solar tracker: 900 W/m2 direct out of 1000 W/m2 total as per Reference Solar Spectral Irradiance: Air Mass 1.5 NREL, retrieved 1 May 2011
- From Renewable energy commercialization: National Renewable Energy Laboratory (2006). Nontechnical Barriers to Solar Energy Use: Review of Recent Literature, Technical Report, NREL/TP-520-40116, September, 30 pages.
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 03:52, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. |

Yxiao2424 - thus far, all of your edits constitute copy-pasting content, either from the public domain or other Wikipedia pages. Your last edit was reverted (should've been an AGF revert) as the content already exists and was properly segregated onto an appropriate page. There are guidelines on article size, and the content that should be included. Randomly copying related material to the primary category page from subpages isn't necessarily helpful, and such changes should be discussed and consensus established. A few general problems exist with the content you copied, including: discussion of Renewable energy, which is not the same as sustainable (1)(2), improper formatting, and inclusion of content best left on subpages. More specifically, I noted a few other issues:
- The greenchipstocks source is not reliable, and again, was copied directly from an external source, contrary to your edit summary. As you were warned previously, this likely a copyright violation.
- The terms power and energy appear to be used interchangeably - they are not the same and there are some lengthy discussions on Wikipedia regarding which is appropriate and when.
- The large section on Germany appears to give undue weight to a single nation, particularly when the EU is already mentioned in the same section.
The low energy house content appears interesting - will comment more when I have time.--E8 (talk) 23:33, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
Ok, I see. Thank you for your patient explaination.
- I know there is a EU section, but it didn't mention the Green energy in Germany. Plus, Germany is doing well in this field. I think it is typical.
- The development of sustainable energy in China is fast. Also, the investment of this field in China is giant. Why there is no much text about this. I thought China is in a good trend of sustainable energy, maybe it should be mentioned in this article.
- In the section of sustainable energy research, I think it lacks the part of Tidal power and Wave power. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yxiao2424 (talk • contribs) 14:44, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
SOME SUGGESTIONS
- To improve the Energy Efficiency section, I'd like to add the wiki page of Energy Star, is an international standard for energy efficient consumer products originated in the United States of America.
- My friend noticed that the energy efficiency section is extremely out of date. It looks like it hasn't been updated in five years! It doesn't even go into smart-grid technology, which experts say will play a huge role in energy efficiency. Thus, I'd like to add smart-grid technology section into this article.yxiao2424 (talk) 14:59, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
