Numerical rankings

Am I missing something? Aren't the numerical rankings supposed to correspond to the total capacity? 199.91.34.33 (talk) 16:00, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, some one made a mistake in adding a dam, so I changed it, but then I messed up the ranking, help me please. Calvingao (talk) 03:54, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Table for under construction dams

There should be a table for dams under construction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Simfan34 (talk • contribs) 21:20, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cut-off

As we already have List of conventional hydroelectric power stations and it was decided to keep both articles, i think this article should be concentrated to largest power stations only. Now this article has 2 000 MW border and noted article 1000 MW. I think we can raise this article border to 3 000 MW and continue to add more data to these largest power stations. --Jklamo (talk) 20:06, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Snowy River Hydro Scheme

In Australia the Snowy River Hydro Scheme is about 3500 MW capacity, but doesnt make the list ??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.107.211.86 (talk) 06:09, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Bourassa Dam

It doesn't make sense to separate Robert Bourassa and La Grande 2-A. Both are simply separate turbine/generator complexes at the same dam, with 2-A being a second phase. Many other dams, like Guri and Grand Coulee, have had later phases add capacity to the dam, and none of them are counted as separate power stations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dgwohu (talk • contribs) 19:57, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Xiangjiaba Dam is 7750 MW

The power station’s installed capacity is 7.75 million kilowatts (eight 800-megawatt giant turbines and three large-scale turbines of 450,000 kilowatts), and the average annual power generation is 30.747 billion kilowatt-hours.
