Do these need wiring or an outlet?

No. Each light has its own solar cell and runs on a rechargeable battery charged by daylight, so you only push the stake into the ground.

They are accent lights for marking paths and borders, not floodlights. Expect a soft glow rather than bright area lighting.

Where should I place them?

In soil or soft ground with the solar panel facing direct sun. Shaded spots under trees or eaves will charge poorly and glow weakly.

An aluminum body in silver, 13.5 inches tall with a 3-inch depth, rated for outdoor use.

They run, but shorter days and weak sun cut charging time, so expect dimmer and shorter nightly output until spring.

Yes, eventually. Solar light batteries lose capacity over a few seasons and are usually the reason lights stop holding a charge.
