* '''[[Coal Studies]]''' - Here's a good page to work on if you have limited time. The number of studies is really big, and the main service provided by this page is to list them all in one place and categorize them by topic.
* '''[[Comparative electrical generating costs]]''' -- need to add updated info from [http://www.eia.gov/oiaf/beck_plantcosts/pdf/updatedplantcosts.pdf "Updated Capital Cost Estimates for Electricity Generation Plants,"] U.S. Energy Information Administration, November 2010
*''' [[Data sources on coal (United States)]]''' -- needs to be expanded by adding things like Dirty Kilowatts, CARMA, and Followthecoalmoney.org
* '''[[Federal coal leasing]]''' - This is an important topic, especially in the Powder River Basin that accounts for nearly 40% of U.S. production and is almost federal coal leases. These leases are historically very cheap and are an overlooked public policy handle.
* '''[[Feed-in tariff]]''' - needs to be expanded.
*'''[[Global warming]]''', '''[[Climate impacts of coal plants]], [[Climate change]]''' - All of these pages are out of date, and they need more coal-specific info. The coal-related information on all three can be the same. There needs to an explanation of James Hansen's coal-centric climate strategy.
*'''[[Green the Capitol Initiative]]''' – 252 views - stub
* '''[[A guide to U.S. federal statistics on coal]]'''
* '''[[Hazardous air pollutants and coal]]''' - need a page, including the EPA's proposed NESHAPS regulations (http://www.epa.gov/apti/course422/apc4e.html) and this study: C.B. Szpunar, [http://www.osti.gov/bridge/servlets/purl/6869555-Cxdk4K/6869555.pdf "Air Toxic Emissions from the Combustion of Coal: Identifying and Quantifying Hazardous Air Pollutants from U.S. Coals,"] U.S. Department of Energy, ANL/EAIS/TM-83, September 1992
* '''[[Historic coal production]]''' - create a page containing the EIA table.
