Solar Energy Evaluation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy

This is my evaluation for the solar energy article and below are some of the changes that I would propose. I did not find any interesting topics on the talk page that I wanted to answer so I came up with my own proposals of what I would like to see changed in the article to make it better. The link to the article is above.

Proposal to condense the thermal energy subtopic:

The thermal energy subtopic has a lot more explanations than the other subtopics, and I think that should be fixed.

Proposal to add new sources to the references page and remove older sources:

The references section has a lot of different sources but a lot of the sources used are outdated. Most of the sources came before the 2000s which is old when compared to the relatively newer field of solar energy. I think that newer sources should be consulted.

Proposal about the ISO standards:

More can be said about the section titled ISO standards because it is not on par with the level of detail given in the rest of the article.

Proposal to remove a reference:

The reference by Hermann Scheer (Scheer, Hermann (2002). The Solar Economy (Renewable Energy for a Sustainable Global Future). Earthscan Publications Ltd. ISBN 1-84407-075-1.)  goes to a custom website that belongs to a certain person which could lead to some biases with the statistics that are given. It is also an outdated source from 2002, I think a newer more reliable source should be found
