This editor left a comment on my talk page [1] where they falsely claimed I have not explained my edits on Medupi Power Station. In addition to providing brief explanations in my edit summaries, I have also explained my edits on their talk page.[2] I will now repeat what I said on that talk page her. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. The parts of this article that aren't criticism read like a promotional brochure, not an encyclopedia article. The article need to be trimmed further to make it more like an encyclopedia article. Edward321 (talk) 00:36, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Explosion

I see that this article has not yet been edited to mention the recent catastrophic explosion of one of the generators at Medupi, as described in this news item: https://techcentral.co.za/photos-extensive-damage-at-medupi-after-massive-explosion/109997/ I have no experience of editing Wikipedia articles, so could someone add this?

Thanks. It was there under Defects and Delays, but I've split it into its own heading and added your reference. Zaian (talk) 07:12, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
