Shouldn't it be "Coal mining"? edit

I guess the coal itself is pretty much obscure. Anyway, thanks for the start. Ukrained2012 (talk) 03:18, 2 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Weak oppose see Category:Coal by country. Seemingly common format. Gregkaye 05:43, 11 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per standard format. Also, reserves and consumption are not mining, so the current title fits better. Beagel (talk) 15:07, 12 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Weasel words edit

"Coal mining is an important industry in Ukraine," is sufficiently inspecific as to be indefensible. The nation cannot mine enough coal to support its own needs. It cannot operate its mines profitably. The truth is that coal mining in Ukraine is a government jobs program, not an industry. It may have been an important industry, but not in the present tense. The lede suffers from WP:NPOV. Rhadow (talk) 17:05, 20 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
