Article Review of Wind Power Article

 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? No i feel this wind energy page is very comprehensive yet concise it has no information that should not be there or is distracting
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? All of the information in this page is up to date as of 2018, but it could have added a section devoted to the future big developments on the horizon in wind power. For instance what will be the biggest on-shore and off-shore wind farm in 2025
 * What else could be improved? i believe this page is very extensive drawing on many current and quality sources maybe they could do a comparison to other renewable energies such as solar to show the potential vs. cost analysis or something, but overall very comprehensive.
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? This article is neutral it draws on both the positives and negatives of wind power. There are no claims either way, which would make one think the writer has took a certain position.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Maybe the benefits are slightly over represented but they are well cited and the negatives are touched on, maybe the viewpoint of how wind energy matches up against other renewable energies.
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? I tried eight of the citations that were there of those eight, two did not work it said "page not found" for these two, which I reported. The sources that did work were clearly support of the claims made in the article.
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted? Almost every fact that I have seen in this article is clearly referenced, most the references are also all from respectable peer reviewed journal articles. Some of the references could be from bias sources such as state run media companies in China for example and this is no noted and some references are not there, but primarily the sources are from respectable sources.
 * What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic? All of the conversations on this article have been about updating the the article this is because of the speed in which wind power technology is being improved and the cost is dramatically reducing
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? This article is rated GA (Good Article), it is part of 4 Wikiprojects Environment/sustainability, Energy, Fluid dynamics/physics and Mills.
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class? We have not really talked about renewable energies in development in class but it is an important part of development and part one of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. This is a position the article could be improved on how wind energy can be used to aid development.
