Quantities of ethanol produced in the USA by year, by US government statements: http://www1.eere.energy.gov/biomass/ethanol.html 140.139.35.250 04:04, 23 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Just don't see the need to merge. Would be good to keep a complete series of "Ethanol fuel in xxx" articles. Johnfos (talk) 21:06, 6 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Biofuel and Ethanol fuel are different, it doesn't make any sense. Biofuels refers to all fuels that can be produced from biomass, such as ethanol fuel, biodiesel and biobutanol. Just read the explanation in the biofuel article. The fact that ethanol is the more widespread used biofuel in the world, more than warrants its own article. Finally, I suggest deleting the banner for merging, it is been more than four months. Mariordo (talk) 18:23, 3 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
It seems this article largely overlooks biogas. Does the US not utilise any biogas from sewage sludge? I'm aware there is growing interest for the creation of biogas from manures. This is an area that should be covered in the article. --Alex Marshall (talk) 14:50, 20 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

In the section titled "Biofuel Companies" near the bottom (6th paragraph at the time of this writing), there is a reference to "Poet Energy, LLC." which should be changed to "POET, LLC" since that's the real company name.[1] It'd also be helpful to link that to the Wikipedia page for POET.

(B) Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
There are some detracting/distracting aspects about this article. I feel that some information, such as of the potential research opportunities in the
field or briefly mentioning but not elaborating on varied studies done. There is also a lot of seemingly random percentages and mixes that are given
and take away from the general explanation of biofuels. These are distracting when the significance of these facts are not connected or explained.
(G) Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
Info being up to date is not an issue (there are current and up-to-date facts and statistics), but I feel there are definitely missing aspects.
Comprehensive papers/articles/Wikipedia pages have clear definitions of the terms it discusses along with elaboration on the topic. In this article, t
that is not seen. I feel that in the very first section, there should have been more extensive discussion on what biofuels are. The article does
provide a hyperlink for biofuel that takes you to a page that defines it, but with the whole page being about this, I feel like more elaboration
within the actual article is appropriate. In later sections with other terms, hyperlinks make sense to allow for readers to look up terms they aren't
familiar with. In the following section of the article, I feel like there it is a constant issue that information is introduced but then not backed up
nor elaborated on with examples/explanations. This continues from the introduction throughout (up and through United States Department of Energy
Projects-- Biofuel companies section is pretty comprehensive and fine as is).
