I know you are talking mainly about templates and categories, but have you seen: List of books about energy issues... Johnfos (talk) 02:04, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm aware of it now. Thanks for the suggestion. I might have stumbled across it during my usual search procedure when starting a new navigation template, but it's more reliable to get intelligent suggestions from a knowledgeable human. --Teratornis (talk) 21:09, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, it appears that I edited that list page a few months ago. For some odd reason, I don't seem to have instant recall of every page I have edited on Wikipedia. I'll have to work on that. --Teratornis (talk) 21:15, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Request for help concerning energy...
Hi,

I noticed you listed yourself as a participant of the Energy WikiProject.

There are 2 new outlines in this area that attempt to consolidate Wikipedia's coverage of their respective subjects, gathering and organizing the articles about them into one place and including descriptions for convenience. The purposes of these outlines are to make it easier for readers to survey or review a whole subject, and to choose from Wikipedia's many articles about it.

The new energy outlines are:


 * Outline of solar energy
 * Outline of wind energy

Please take a look at them, and....


 * if you spot missing topics, add them in.


 * if you can, improve the descriptions.


 * add missing descriptions.


 * show parent-offspring relationships (with indents).


 * fix errors.

For more information about the format and functions of outlines, see Outlines.

Building outlines of existing material (such as Wikipedia) is called "reverse outlining". Reverse outlines are useful as a revision tool, for identifying gaps in coverage and for spotting poor structuring.

Revising a work with multiple articles (such as Wikipedia) is a little different than revising a paper. But the general principles are the same...

As you develop these outlines, you may notice things about the articles they organize. Like what topics are not adequately covered, better ways to structure and present the material, awkward titles, articles that need splitting, article sections lacking Main links, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page or at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Outlines.

Thank you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 00:57, 2 June 2012 (UTC) P.S.: see also Outline of energy
