:Should have been done using the "move this page" link, to preserve article history. Also, the non-capitalized version is what's preferred by the manual of style. So I've moved it back and merged the histories of the two articles together. Bryan 01:43, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

message: How can you are?  This article needs an overhaul from some one who knows what they're talkin' about.
* How is this a "train wreck"?  It is written in a very intellectual style and it is written more from the large producer/consumer standpoint, so it could use more information from an individual standpoint (i.e. "utilities encourage people not to use appliances during the dinner hour"), but that doesn't invalidate the information already here.  What do you think the article needs?  Better yet, be bold and add it yourself! DeMatt (talk) 06:03, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

* Good to know.  Couldn't figure out what the original link should point to now, so I just erased it.  Next time, be bold and do it yourself!  The worst thing that'll happen is we'll mercilessly edit your edit out of existence. DeMatt (talk) 06:10, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  External Links 

message: In the next few days this page will soon get a significant revision and subsequent editing from students participating in the Public Policy Initiative. This article was chosen because it is missing content or sourcing and has been relatively innactive. Their draft articles are being formed in their user space and will be transfered here. Links to the drafts can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject United States Public Policy/Courses/Political Economy of Technology and Science fall 2010. I will not be allowing students to that first initial transfer unless their article has been significantly improved in references and content. Please provide comments on the significant revisions and help the students improve the Wikipedia formatting. However, I would greatly appreciate that any major content changes be suggested to the students on the talk page so that they get the experience editing collaboratively and through consensus and feedback. The final date for the project is Friday December 10, expect significant editing from now until then. Thank you. 
If you have any questions feel free to raise them here or on my talk page, Myself and other WP:Online Ambassadors will be monitoring their edits, so we will also be able to help fix issues on the pages, Sadads (talk) 01:20, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  merge with "demand response" article 

message: I propose merging Demand response into Energy demand management. I think the content in Demand response can easily be explained in the context of Energy demand management, and a merger would not cause any article-size or weighting problems in Energy demand management.Chidgk1 (talk) 13:03, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm I agree with the premise that they could be covered together, but this may be a rare instance of me not supporting a merge. Demand reponse is getting a lot more attention with better technologies and policies that can enable and promote it, while energy demand management is is broader concept that isn't covered as much in particular. Energy demand management is more looking at the big picture of how to reduce or plan for both total and peak demand, while demand response is more specifically using signals and requests for power usage to change in repsonse to actual demand. There's definitely some overlap in the articles and a need for some restructuring or rewriting, but I'd hate to lose demand response as a primary article topic. A lot of places are instituting more programs (e.g.) that could be written about to expand the article. Reywas92Talk 17:00, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

text: I oppose a merge.  I don't accept that this would not cause UNDUE problems.  According to the pagesize tool Energy demand management has 12kB of readable prose whereas Demand response has 30kB.  These figures are slightly inaccurate because the tool does not include bulleted text on the grounds that that is just going to be a list.  Even so, that would entirely swamp the current article.  Furthermore, the "Types" section in Energy demand management lists four topics, all of which have their own articles, mostly fairly lengthy.  The logic of this proposal would demand all of them be merged in making a quite unwieldly article.  It is better left as an overview article. SpinningSpark 22:44, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

text: Oppose. I agree with the contrary points raised above. Demand response is a significant topic on its own, and there is no benefit of merging it here. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 23:37, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
