User talk:Idoanmarciano

Welcome!
Hello, Idoanmarciano, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 12:34, 31 August 2017 (UTC)

Are you sure the book was published in 2006? This specific volume is from 2011, and the "first edition" on Amazon dates to 2009. The text is in the article as far as 2008, and while I'm suspicious of a large amount of text coming in at once like that, I think it's likely that the book copied from Wikipedia, and not the other way around.

Hi. Yes, it appears that pv-magazine is on the spam blacklist. If you are interested in learning more about it, see Spam blacklist. If you want to make a case for whitelisting one particular page on that website, see MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist.

That said, pv-magazine describes itself as an industry trade publication. So before you request whitelisting, you need to make sure that this source meets the standards of a reliable source. You said that "I think this website can be traced to its writer/author". The fact that the listed author of an article is likely to be the actual author is only meaningful if that author is a leading authority on the topic - for example, a widely-published academic at the top of their field. What you really need to do is establish that either the publication has an editor board and reputation for fact checking.

Your real goal though isn't to find a source that meets Wikipedia's guidelines for reliable sources. Your should be looking for the best source available. Are there no peer-reviewed journal articles that cover the topics you're working on? A quick search for "renewable energy in Morocco" turned up plenty, even when I limited the search to post-2015.

Be careful when you're locating information at some point in time. You wrote: "Morocco currently has eight wind farms". You can't say "currently", since that will change over time. You need to say as of when. The report you're using is dated 2016, so that information might be out of date already. Instead of "currently" you should try saying something like "As of 2016".

You need to be more careful with your references. At present, they're mostly incomplete, and some of them are incorrect. For example, your 5th reference gives "Science Direct" as the source, when in fact it comes from the journal "Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews". Make sure that your references are properly formatted. Please see this slide, and the one after it, if you need a refresher on adding citations with the Visual Editor.

The solar power section is currently chronological - it tells a story of what happened. You need to make sure that the most important information is to the front of the section and to the front of each paragraph. Most people aren't going to read very far - make sure that they get the most important information first. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:54, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
