<nowiki><us_map redirect="{state} and coal"></us_map></nowiki>
* [[Renewable portfolio standards]] - As a start, there's some a section in the [[Michigan and coal]] article on that state's RPS. Also need to create a page on Renewable energy standards and redirect.
SW: updated
* '''[[India and coal]]''' - This is another really important article. Needs more details on just about everything.
* '''Infoboxes''' - A lot of [[:Category:Power companies and agencies|'''power companies''']] and [[Global list of coal mining companies and agencies|'''coal mining companies''']] lack infoboxes. These are easy to create once you get the hang of it.
*'''[[International Information on Coal]]''' - 3,690 page views (5/10)
*[[International opposition to coal]] - This page would have a brief paragraph and link to opposition in all the countries where it is taking place; also [[International protests against coal]] and [[Indigenous opposition against coal]]
* '''[[Key private sector decision makers on coal]]''' needs to be expanded to also include mining company executives such as [[Chris Cline]] and [[Rinat Akhmetov]]. Also, the stubs created for the executives on the list need to be expanded.
*'''[[Mercury and coal]]''' - 3,216 page views (5/10) - We should add a sortable table based on Table 1: Top 50 US Power Plant Mercury Emitters found in [http://www.environmentalintegrity.org/news_reports/documents/EIP_Top50USPowerPlantMercuryEmitters2010.FINAL042910.pdf this EIP study]
*''' [[Metinvest]]''' - We need a page on this company, which bought [[United Coal Company]] in 2009. Also need Need a page on [[Multinational ownership of coal mines]]
* '''[[Mountaintop removal]]''' – 5,443 page views (9/9). 9,741 page views (5/10). 15,040 page views (3/11). This is already a strong article, but it might benefit from the additional of a Navbar that points and integrates the various related topics. See the article [[Clean Coal]] for an example of the Navbar approach.
* '''[[Natural gas as an alternative to coal]]''' - Need to add new findings by Drew Shinell of NASA's Goddard Center revising the GHG potency of methane from 25 x CO2 to 34 x CO2 on a 100-year basis. The same information also should be included in other articles having to do with natural gas (i.e. methane). Also, the GHG potency of methane deserves its own page. Related articles include [[Fracking]], [[Marcellus Shale]], and [[Natural gas transmission leakage rates]]. There are also recent articles raising questions about the lack of analysis of lifecycle greenhouse gas impacts of natural gas.
*'''[[Nonviolent direct actions against coal]]''' - 6,050 page views (5/10)/ . This page and the yearly pages connected to it are always in need more workof updating, since actions are taking place regularly around the world.

*[[North American Coal]] - need to merge with [[North American Coal Corporation]]
* '''[[Opposition to existing coal plants]]''' - Needs more detail on specific fights
*'''[[Philanthropy and the No-Coal Movement]]''' - This article is a good start but it needs more foundations and those foundations each need research.

Needs to include a sharper explanation and critique of sulfur trading programs. Also needs clearer numbers on how many power plants have not yet been retrofitted and when these plants will be required to be retrofitted under the Clean Air Act. Also needs to explain how SO2 forms particulates and leads to 24,000 annual deaths from particulates. Merge [[Sulphur and coal]] into this page and create a redirect.
* '''[[Testimony on proposed coal plants]]''' - This is a popular page (2,450) and it could be expanded significantly
*'''[[Twilight MTR Surface Mine]]''' - need to add protests and photos
*'''[[TXU deal]]''' - This was an important agreement between TXU (now Luminant), NRDC, and EDF that resulted in 8 proposed coal plants being cancelled and 3 moving forward. What were the terms of the agreement? How well is it being enforced? Was it a good deal or not? Whatever gets written can be copied into the [[Texas and coal]], the [[Luminant]], the Environmental Defense Fund]], and the [[NRDC articles]], along with the articles on the 11 individual plants.
