Need for specific dating on all Wikipedia pages concerning Wind Power

The installation of new wind power projects has become so rapid that Wikipedia is experiencing difficulties in keeping up to date. The article here, in paragraph 1, states that the installed capacity of onshore wind power in the whole of the UK is 9,512 megawatts. In another Wikipedia article ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_onshore_wind_farms_in_the_United_Kingdom , at the bottom of the table therein) the same value is quoted as 3679.68 megawatts. The discrepancy between 3679 and 9512 MW lowers the confidence of the reader in the accuracy of the figures presented by Wikipedia.

May I suggest that figures of this type need to be accompanied by the date on which they were calculated and last believed to be accurate.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).</ref></ref></ref>

Not objective

This entire article is too opinion-based for Wikipedia. It should be more objective. It is clear to any thinking reader that some contributors had strong opinions that the UK should be using more wind power to generate electricity. There is even a comment against the government's decision in 2016 with unnecessary bias present. Jackhodari (talk) 13:54, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
