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.

Upper and Lower
Hi,

why is the article even without a link to the "other" part?! Is the distance sooo large that this is really 2 complete seperated oil fields? But even in such cases often the field is counted as one... for example the new Number 1 in Mexico because until 2008 when the prices were rising and rising from its extreme low ~18 US-$ (AVERAGE!) for a barrel in 1998 due to weak economy, fear of the "Millenium bug", the "00" problem in years. Born 01.03.00 (00 = 100 a.d. or before Christi, also it could be 1500, 1700, 1900 or 2000..... or 21900.

Its extreme, my sister worked for Etihad in Abu Dhabi, they hold ~92 billion barrels out of ~98.63 billion barrels reserves (newest claim by the official UAE oil Ministry, very close behind the Kuwait oil reserves... I think only that Kuwait has not such a large offshore area but the country is build on oil... I think over 50% of the ground in Kuwait contains oil or a underground way through rocks or so for oil.. it can be very deep for us, but since drilling is getting much more effective and in most cases cheaper... its cool.

Everyone thinks about Dubai, but not Abu Dhabi... even Etihad where my sister worked is only the Number 2 behind "Emirates". Most flights to Asia, especially Bangladesh here, were for the "abour force", in fact it is only a bonus for such small states with sooo much reserves and sooo many poor people in areas even not soo far away by aircraft or ship... thousands come and leave per month alone from Bangladesh, working 1 year there at a bad paid job (bad for UAE standard, but very good for Bangladesh...), often money is send to family a part, and another part is saved and when they return they can do normal working hours in a normal company and not the slave factories in which even electric machines in the textile factories is forbidden... it saves the machines (worth many months of payment...) and workers paid is cheaper than worker + small machines to finish parts of the same type of clothes....

But however, gas production increased too, I think in this basin, as UAE was for years (or still is? just much smaller now?) a net importer of natural gas and Qatar is sooo small but the 3rd highest gas reserves, even not that far away from being Nr. 2... with a population I think less than Berlin Metropolitan region...... but now there is (diplomatic...) war, no gas from Qatar... UAE used it for energy generation and/or get clean water without salt... Saudi Arabia has a extreme large power plant, the by far largest oil fired one, on the western coast, not really far away from the Sues Canal... it creates energy for Mekka, Medina (?) and other cities there and Mekka, you know, every Moslem has to travel once to Mekka [if he can], some return every year or every few years... a new super hotel in the "london Big Ben"-Style was build... the extreme large oil power plant (it is on the sea for 2 reasons: cooling water, I mean use something to cook something longer time and over 175° C, or more common 200° C and than put a bit water on it^^ The Saudis use this to cool the generators which are oil fired, its build so that the parts needing to be cooled are being cooled by a smart 4 "tanks" system and "entry" and "out" pipes, at least for "out" it can be done too in the middle I think, all the steam which is created by this is going up, is collected and we have fresh drinking water for extreme large cities... I mean we talk about giant water tanks, I mean cool down units with each far over 1000 Megawatt (I think its combined almost 6000 MW)

so maybe change it? put a link into it?! Since admins/mods remove edits in German Wikipedia extreme fast in the last time, and I think in English I had 1-2 same examples too... so I do not edit without asking.. Kilon22 (talk) 00:09, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
