Talk:Rance tidal power plant
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Power production as per Fr wiki article - I am not convinced this is accurate - 600 Million KWH per what period of time??? Please help/ never mind - fixed with data from UK study.Bridesmill 01:37, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Explaining trans
- Follow-on - nothing was ever accomplished the first time, but the second time used experience of the first, so 'follow-on'. 'Follow-up' has conmnotation of either expanding on previous work or remedial work (as in 'a follow-up visit to the doctor's')
- metres/meters - both spellings acceptable on wiki, but it needs to be consistent within the article, and normal policy is the first version stands, otherwise it turns into revert wars on UK/US spelling (see Jewelry for a prime example of this)

- I Google-mapped Bretagne, France referenced in the first line of the article. That location is about as far away as you can get in France from the actual location of this hydro facillity.

- Did you try using the co-ords at the top of the article? Googling on the name of an administrative district will rarely happen to find a specific location within that district unless the district is very small and the location happens to be very central within the district. Googling the vatican might find St Peter's Square, but googling Bretagne isn't likely to hit a specific river mouth. DMcMPO11AAUK/Talk/Contribs 21:02, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Tourist attraction and a bridge
Is the "16,000" vessels the number of vessels that pass through the lock, in which case over which time period, or the vessel capacity of the lock, in what unit? Tonnes? DMcMPO11AAUK/Talk/Contribs 08:48, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
