Talk:List of coal mines in the United States

Time for an update?
Hi, I went looking for stats and was pleased to see this list, but five years on, it is surely due for an update! How come the table is not showing the sort keys, even though it is marked as sortable in the code?--Graham Proud (talk) 01:51, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:


 * http://www.mining-technology.com/projects/cordero/
 * Triggered by  on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

✅ This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.— cyberbot II NotifyOnline 21:48, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

HOW??? Active AND Inactive???
I understand a list like this can provide value.....however, its nowhere complete and if it were complete, it could in theory have thousands of entries.......can I, yes or no, assume this is going to grow, geometrically???? Also, I noticed an addition of the Phillips Sprague mine. Thats also the Exhibition Coal Mine in Beckley West Virginia which not been active for at least 30 years......This is a slippery slope folks. If you want to list ALL inactive as well as active coal mines in the US, West Virginia alone has well over 1,000.......WHERE are we going here??Coal town guy (talk) 13:55, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
