Starting to read the article, will review it in a few days.VR talk 05:14, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
Chidgk1, I read this article once. I will post a formal review soon. But my first impression is that it looks short. Specifically:
- The history section is short. There is a picture "Historical windmill in Bodrum" so maybe you can include content on pre-modern windmills.
- There is no section on environmental impact. The article has just one sentence on windmills on bird routes.
- There is no discussion on the political dimension. I know Turkey has a loud democracy. Has most of this progress occurred during AKP era? How does the opposition feel about this?
- What is the public opinion on wind farms? Are farmers upset?
- Not much public opinion either way as far as I can tell - added a couple of sentences - farmers more relevant to other types of generation (e.g. solar agrivoltaics) as hilltops not important for farming - I hope to improve agriculture in Turkey some time later Chidgk1 (talk) 09:05, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- You can also give more details on the actual windfarms in Turkey (list at Category:Wind farms in Turkey). For example, about half of Wind power in the United Kingdom is on details of actual wind projects.
- Added a sentence but I think the UK article has too much tabular info which would be better held in Wikidata. The only "Wind power in ...." article I can find rated good is Wind power in South Australia but that was assessed in 2007 when there were far fewer wind farms so I doubt I can use that as a model. However if I do come across anything notable about an individual wind farm I will add it. Chidgk1 (talk) 11:02, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

- The article is currently short, even shorter than narrow topic engineering GAs like Concrete bus shelters in Canberra and Rail transport in Vatican City. I would very much prefer more details about actual wind plants in Turkey. But if you disagree, I can continue with the rest of the review and seek a second opinion on this particular topic.VR talk 21:28, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Happy to make the article longer but not sure that adding particular wind plant details would be worth the effort - more opinions/suggestions from others welcome - meanwhile if you can continue that would be great. For comparison I did a lot of work on List of active coal-fired power stations in Turkey but became frustrated that I was not allowed to automatically keep it up to date from Wikidata as I have done for the Turkish list at https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%BCrkiye%27deki_k%C3%B6m%C3%BCr_yak%C4%B1tl%C4%B1_enerji_santralleri_listesi In any case I am reasonably confident that no more coal-fired power stations will be built whereas hopefully many more wind farms will. Someone else has made a list at List_of_power_stations_in_Turkey#Wind which can be linked from here. Chidgk1 (talk) 06:36, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- On second thoughts as there are only 7 wind farms in Category:Wind_farms_in_Turkey I could excerpt their leads thus avoiding duplicate text - and if their leads are not good quality you can tell me and I could improve them. Would you be happy with that? Chidgk1 (talk) 06:54, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- Another thing: I would organize the "Current and planned capacity" into three parts: the first part should be about current capacity, second part (in a subsection) should be about planned wind plants or those under construction, and final part can be about total potential that can theoretically be achieved.VR talk 21:28, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
@Vice regent: I hope you are well - do I need to do anything else please? Chidgk1 (talk) 13:09, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
@Vice regent: Have requested new reviewer - but if you become available will be happy for you to continue - thanks for your very valuable comments - which have improved the article a lot Chidgk1 (talk) 06:01, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
