Hi and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm impressed with some of the energy Tables which you have contributed, and have just added a few minor changes in the Solar heating article to improve readability. Thank you for your efforts... Johnfos 08:52, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Johnfos! I'm very impressed of your contributions in the Renewable energy articles. Thank you for your greetings and also contributions in the tables. Watti Renew 11:38, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ethanol fuel tables

[edit]

Hi Watti. I'm wanting to help clarify these tables from the Ethanol fuel article. Could you please let me know which page of the source document the info has come from, as I couldn't find it. Also, I'm thinking these tables might be better in an Ethanol fuel in Europe article. What do you think? regards, Johnfos 22:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

: Thank you for your question Johnfos. Thanks to it I noticed the mistakes: Bioethanol consumption in Austria was 0 GWh (2006). USA should be Germany. Please correct also above, if possible. I made new tables with additional data in GWhs. I suggest a subtitle: "Europe" in present article with the tables. Is it OK? I prefer to have one long informative article instead of many scatted ones. I correct the page so that you can see my suggestion. The consumption data is from the tables 1 & 2 and the production data from the table 4 (the EBIO European Bioethanol Fuel Association). The correlation factors are in the new tables. According to the Swedish statistics their use of bioethanol was 1680,33 GWh (2005). In the this table calculated from the Eurobarometer the same value was 1681 GWh. Thus, in these tables the last number may be inaccurate based on small mathematical rounding errors. Thank you for your questions. I am glad you were interested in my contribution.

European biodiesel consumption

[edit]

Hi Watti. Nice table you added to Biodiesel. I think it would be better placed in the Biodiesel around the world page, however.--E8 (talk) 20:19, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks E8, I added it also there. I think the tables give a lot of info in a compact form. Therefore, I recommend to have it in both articles. Watti Renew (talk) 14:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As a regular editor of this, and other similar pages, I disagree. The Biodiesel page is already lengthy and confused. Biodiesel around the world is the best location for this material, as it contains "use" information and location-specific details. I put this up for public discussion here. Perhaps a new Biodiesel use page fork is appropriate?--E8 (talk) 20:15, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

E8, I appreciate that you express your points of view for the article development. I support the nation specific consumption levels in all renewable energy main articles equal to Installed wind power capacity (MW) in the article Wind power and Wind power in the European Union. Thank you for the openning of the discussion. Watti Renew (talk) 18:54, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Electric power in America

[edit]

Please see discussion re deletion of Category:Electric power in America Hugo999 (talk) 08:24, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hugo999 thank you for your notice of my work in the project: Category:Electric power by country. I give my suggestions in the Categories for discussion Here. I agree this needs further developing. In my opinion the categories are useful for finding all the relevant information. Therefore, everybody are welcomed to help with: Categories by country including : Category:Energy by country and Category:Electric power by country. Watti Renew (talk) 18:12, 27 January 2011 (UTC)). See CfD page; No need for categories in “Electric power” for Latin America or Anglo America, as the main “Energy” category does not use these regions. If a category for “Anglo” North American countries is required call it Northern America.For Category:Electric power in North America remove various subcategories eg Hydroelectricity in Canada so it has only the subcategories (by country) for Electric power in United States, Canada, Mexico. Hugo999 (talk) 21:37, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hugo999, you have correct these need attention. I try to fix the order of categories. Watti Renew (talk) 18:44, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Wind power in Malta

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Wind power in Malta. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Economy of Malta. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Economy of Malta - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. --Non-Dropframe talk 18:30, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your doubt about this page. In the end of 2009 there was no wind power in Malta.ref. Wind in power 2009 European statistics EWEA February 2010 However, if the potential is as told, the article is in my opinion more important. This is part of Category:Wind power in the European Union project. No wind power in Malta is also important link in this category. Let us consider the article in the discussion.

Change notice

[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Climate change in the United States. I made a change to your link gu.com to guardian.co.uk. What was that?

NOAA had registered in August 2011 nine distinct extreme weather disasters, each totalling $1bn or more in economic losses. Total losses for 2011 were evaluated as more than $35bn before Hurricane Irene.[2]

[edit]

When you edited the Population growth article, you added a link to Congo, which is a disambiguation page rather than an article. If you know from the source material whether it's referring to the Republic of the Congo or the Democratic Republic of the Congo, could you please edit your link to point to the appropriate page? Most common usage referring to the country simply as "Congo" is about Republic of the Congo, not the DRC, but I didn't want to assume that in this case since you're probably more familiar with the topic. Thanks! LarryJeff (talk) 17:49, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks LarryJeff. The source includes both. These numbers refer to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where population was 37.9 million in 1990 and 64.2 million in 2008. Here is the table of Population growth in question:

Hi Watti. Back in November, you got either an AfD or PROD notification and it was during one of the template testing project's experiments. If you could go here and leave us some feedback about what you think about the new versions of the templates we tested (1, 2), that would be very useful. (You can also email me at swalling@wikimedia.org if you want.) Thanks! Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 23:45, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Ramin (tree), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Ramin. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. MadmanBot (talk) 10:00, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I feel very disappointed that my work has been deleted while I have not been here. Pages Carl-Gustaf Ehrnroot and Talk:Carl Gustaf Ehrnrooth were removed without my knowledge or opportunity to express my opinion. Watti Renew (talk) 10:11, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In my opinion the article deserves place since Carl-Gustaf Ehrnroot is with his brothers Georg Ehrnrooth and Henrik Ehrnrooth via Corbis S.A. the biggest owner of Pöyry (2012).Ehrnrooth family investment fund Structor is the biggest owner of the construction company YIT with share of 12.1 % in the end of January 2012. He is also the promoter of the project of Guggenheim Foundation (2012 ongoing) to build a museum in front of the president castle in the city of Helsinki with municipal and state funds. The majority of the tax payers (ca 75 %) oppose this project in favor of other museums e.g. the existing valuable city art museum near Seurasaari. In my opinion this was not a denied personal attack. This page should be returned. Page content may be changed with good arguments but its deletion is in my opinion against Wiki neutrality. Watti Renew (talk) 10:23, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We noticed though that when you edited Tapiola, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Garden city (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
