article lacks more than inline references

Latest comment: 10 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

noticed the reference tag "sources remain unclear" but references ARE there.

i find this article has other problems: it's poorly written (sounds translated in many spots), lacks pertinent info (eg don't think the "founding fathers" of the law are that central, certainly doesnt need a bullet point section) from unbiased references (e.g. DENA is incorporated and has been criticized for biased studies and projections) and it's not up to date (2005-2011 max). people come here, linked from all kinds of pages about RE, to learn about what this German RE law did and does.

will start cleaning up, and, yes, Professor Jones, move references from end-note format in-line, per your referencing tag, although the references ARE there, so this is cosmetic and the least of the article's problems. .--Wuerzele (talk) 04:05, 9 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

after looking for some of the unclear quotations I finally found that most of this text was lifted from here [1] --Wuerzele (talk) 07:39, 10 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Requested move 24 January 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. There is a consensus not to remove the natural disambiguation. Jenks24 (talk) 07:45, 1 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

German Renewable Energy Act → Renewable Energy Act – We don't have information on any other Renewable Energy Act. The proposed target is a redirect to this article; WP:CONCISE. Essentially, switch the article and the redirect. Si Trew (talk) 08:39, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Oppose "Renewable Energy Act" should redirect to renewable energy law (and renewable energy act, renewable energy bill, Renewable Energy Law, Renewable Energy Bill) -- 70.51.200.135 (talk) 07:21, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
Comment since this is a law in Germany, there's no proper English language name, so the generic name should lead to a generic topic instead of a specific one. -- 70.51.200.135 (talk) 07:21, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
Oppose India, the Philippine, Canada (provinces), UK, etc all have acts titled "Renewable Energy Act". The country qualifier is necessary to any potential disambiguation.--Labattblueboy (talk) 23:42, 29 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Overhaul of page

Latest comment: 8 years ago3 comments1 person in discussion

I am about to embark on an overhaul of this page. In particular, I would like to at least address or expand the following points:

better treatment of the historical development of the EEG
better treatment of its current status as EEG (2014)
coverage of future proposals
coverage of the EEG levy (Umlage)
the role of public opinion in the development of the EEG
improved assessment of the EEG feed-in law as a form of renewables policy
improved but short section on criticisms of and alternatives to the EEG

Any comments or offers of help most welcome. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 14:37, 2 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

A draft of my proposed overhaul can be found at User:RobbieIanMorrison/sandbox/eeg. Please comment here if you have suggestions. I intend to copy over the new material on 5 September 2016 when I come back from holiday. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 14:39, 9 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Done. Just shifted over the new material. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 22:18, 7 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
