Wikipedia:Peer review/Oil phase-out in Sweden/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I would like this article polished up so I can be featured, its a very interesting topic that would generate allot of interest. Below are some points to consider when improving.

  • More citations throughout the article. Why did Sweden decide to break their dependence on oil? The decision did not come out of thin air, didn't it? What were the political implications of such a move? What actions did the government take to implement its decision? Those are just a few questions that I see are unanswered in the article.

I'd also like to see more on the topic too, but since I started the article I'm biased. Unfortunately there is not much information in English, so it really needs some contributions from native Swedes - I've just posted a request on the Wikipedia:Swedish Wikipedians' notice board. Incidentally, practically all the article is based on the 2 references given, which explains the lack of other citations. Gralo 12:27, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For FA status, this would require a significant additions, I would think. It really needs to be more in depth. The four reasons why Sweden is phasing out oil is listed, but what is the reasoning behind each? What is the relationship between Sweden's economy and oil? What, exactly, is Sweden's potential for its own renewable energy resources, etc?

What is public opinion of this move? What political impact did it have (if any)? Are other nations watching what happens in Sweden? You have an excellent start, however. I look forward to seeing what you can do. Resolute 07:04, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
