OK, done.
Some of the existing man_made=windmill are (in OSM tagging terms, as
viewed by bing, LPI topo/base maps)
windpumps
water_wells (OZie = bores)
power=generator, generator:source=wind (yes - badly tagged a whole group
of them)
some don't look like they exist .. possibly being replaced by solar
pumps? I have added notes to these.
These have been suitably edited.
On the wiki page I have added windmills (OSM windpump) and bores (OSM
water_well).

Navel glazing ?
Are not windmills bores? Simply powered by the wind.
