</div>There are still some mismatches between source and method.<br>
<br>
e.g. generator:source=nuclear, generator:methode=fission<br>
A nuclear fission do not creates electricity it only creates a steam<br>
to power a turbine.<br></blockquote><div><br>This is really unecessary and pedantic. Every person with any application in mind for real-world generators (as opposed to school physics lessons on the theory of generation) would understand and appreciate what is meant by the proposed tags.<br>
<br>Nobody needs the tag to be "generator:method=fission-creating-steam-to-power-a-turbine-that-induces-an-electric-current", or "generator:method=gasifiying-the-waste-municipal-wood-which-is-then-burnt-at-a-high-temperature-to-avoid-tar-buildup-to-produce-steam-driving-an-electromagnetic-induction-method-turbine".<br>

And I still did not know how to tag a heating (only) station without<br>
braking the current software. [3]<br>
