Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 22:33, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Coal grade[edit]

I'm pretty sure there's an order of magnitude error in the coal grade. 3.8 MJ/kg would rank it almost five times less energy dense than some of the worst lignite out there. Sadly the source seems to dead link, so I can't recover the original information. Hobbitschuster (talk) 10:37, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

to add: the issue comes from a glitch (or maybe it was deliberate?) in the conversion template which produces different conversion factors for "btu/lb" and "BTU/lb". The current value is more credible. Hobbitschuster (talk) 13:35, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Largest mine or not?[edit]

"The North Antelope Rochelle Mine is the largest coal mine in the world."

"These two operations merged and North Antelope Rochelle ceded the title of largest mine to Black Thunder in 2012."

Should "is" be "was" in the first sentence? If not, how can both statements be true? 71.56.78.233 (talk) 03:12, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
