If anyone can swish their powerful photoshop wand over the images I've uploaded (and make it look better, of course), please do so. I tried doing it myself, but it's just not happening. Thanks!

I have now duplicated them, so hopefully it is less confusing for you. The first reference itself is from the dam/power station authority, FYI. Like I
said earlier, if you have any issue with any particular piece of information, please use an inline template, or post on this talkpage.

@
Rehman: All the content in the infobox may be mentioned the main body but the main body was poorly sourced - as stated three of the six paragraphs were unsourced. It was only me reverting you that forced you to
add citations at the end of these paragraphs. If I hadn't, those paragraphs would have remained unsourced. Sheer arrogance on your part to revert me for trying to uphold one of Wikipedia's core content policies,
WP:V.
For the record, the three unsourced paragraphs contained these facts which were repeated (naturally without any sources) in the infobox:
Opening date
Height (foundation)
Height (foundation)
Width (crest)
Width (base)
Total capacity
Catchment area
Adding a citation at the end of the last sentence in each paragraph to cite the entire paragraph is pure laziness. It forces the reader to check the source to see if it cites the entire paragraph or just the last sentence.--

So instead of all the usual habitual personal attacks and reverts, if you had initially simply used inline templates or at least used more descriptive edit summaries, we wouldn't have had to waste all this time now, wouldn't we?

@
Rehman:So you accept that when you
first reverted me there was large chunks of the article, including much of the content, that were unsourced? And when you stated in the edit summary that my reason for adding the maintenance template was
false you were in fact lying?
You knew you first revert was so out of order that you
added four inline citations, which was the whole point of me adding the maintenance template, before reverting me for a second time. If I hadn't stood up to your first arrogant revert the article would have remained poorly sourced.
