Talk:Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy

message: Hello, and thanks to User:Elispen for working on this page. I have to emphasize on the sourcing (as it is mentioned above). It is the biggest thing that stands out to me regarding this page. Check out WP:SECONDARY if you haven't already. This article would be greatly strengthened substituting content/evolving towards secondary sources. Nearly all sources are primary sources (from the EERE/DOE/etc.) The Solar Decathalon isn't an independent secondary source, at least, as it is sponsored by EERE. Elispen, it would be super nice if you could incorporate some media coverage, journal references (with DOI's) or whatever. Also, don't worry about editing the page directly. You've nicely declared your COI so feel free to chop away! Thanks. -Wervo (talk) 01:43, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Hey guys! I don't know if anyone's looking at this talk page, but I'm helping user:ch2017 with the updated draft for the EERE page. The draft she linked above had some issues, so that link doesn't work anymore. I have a newly edited and cleaned up version in my sandbox over here. I also have a Conflict of Interest, so I also don't intend to make these changes directly. I'm hoping someone else looking at this talk page could look at this draft and give us some feedback--and if it looks good, it'd be great if someone could help us post it! Feedback welcome!

replies: text:  I saw the note about requesting an update, and I can help work in some of that draft page. There's more I would consider adding (history of EERE for example) that I need to do some third-party source checking that would help flesh this out more. (I do have familiarity with what EERE provides but nothing close to a COI beyond academic/scholarly interest in the field, so reasonable certain I can help). --MASEM (t) 15:41, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I have incorporated your draft, as reviewing it I didn't see any serious COI issues compared to the previous version (heavily sourced to the EERE website but that's not much of a problem for something like this). I did reorganize some topics and trimmed out the number of headers too. --MASEM (t) 18:40, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Oh, that's fantastic! Thanks a lot for reviewing and improving the draft so much. Es2017 (talk) 20:56, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Updating the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy + conflict of interest 

message: There is a new acting assistant secretary for the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) named Daniel Simmons. I would like someone to replace Steve Chalk's name, who is currently listed on the EERE page as acting assistant secretary, with Daniel Simmons. The footnote, which goes to the current org chart, can remain. Would someone from the community kindly make this change? The page is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Energy_Efficiency_and_Renewable_Energy
Thank you.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ch2017 (talk • contribs) 16:16, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
