Blood+

edit

Neither the article nor section needs a minute break down of every way chiropterans can die. The primary method for killing them in the series is through the use of the blood of a queen, particularly higher level ones. Further, the section, again, does not say they are immortal, only that they are difficult to kill. Also, keep in mind the Schiff were created from Diva's blood for the purpose of being able to kill chiropterans, so it is not the same as if a human attempted it. The section is already overly detailed, as is. Please also remember to observe [{WP:BRD]]. If you add new material to an article and it is questioned, it is better to actually discuss it either on user talk or on the article talk rather than just continuing to add it over and over. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 18:35, 27 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

@Robynthehode: Fair enough. There are discussions that the actually height of the structure is to be in the 1300 m range or perhaps beyond that but finding a reliable source confirming such is difficult. It seems the developer has done this intentionally so as to not be upstaged by any future developments in their desire to become the world tallest tower & structure.LayfonCSR (talk) 21:53, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Robynthehode: Incorrect. "For all structures the pinnacle height is given". This is stated very clearly at the very top of the list. Various examples including; Willis Tower, One World Trade Center, John Hancock Center, Empire State Building and numerous others. Please read the article description thoroughly before making unnecessary edits.LayfonCSR (talk) 21:09, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Have checked article criteria again and it is confusing. Pinnacle (the link is to an article on pinnacles) is an architectural feature on a building and therefore should be equivalent to 'architectural height' as is used by the most reliable source - CTBUH. However many of the structures in the list show height to tip (also used by CTBUH) which includes antenna and other temporary or removable features. It would be good to clarify this in the article as 'pinnacle' adds to the confusion about the total height of any structure. My preference is to use the architectural height as this is used by most articles in Wikipedia. Having different criteria for different lists is confusing for the lay reader. Robynthehode (talk) 21:20, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Robynthehode: Undoubtedly it can be confusing for the reader to see differing figures for the same building on varying articles, unfortunately as I'm sure you know the CTBUH themselves have set three separate criteria when it comes to measuring heights; https://www.ctbuh.org/resource/height. When it comes to measuring building heights I suppose most would probably agree that using architectural height is preferred standard. However lists of the tallest structures includes structures such as communication tower. The architectural height of most towers is not known or listed, instead these structures have typically been measured to their tip which is the pinnacle height of the structure eg; http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=21. I assume pinnacle heights was chosen for this list because it maintains a consistent and fair standard when comparing structures as the pinnacle heights of both towers and buildings are known.LayfonCSR (talk) 21:38, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
I think the article that prompted this discussion, on reflection, should state both architectural and tip height. I agree with you that some structures are measured to the tip because of the nature of the structure - communication towers being one. My comment above also illustrated the fact that pinnacle height is the same as architectural according to the linked article for the meaning of pinnacle as is mentioned at the top of the article. So that needs sorting out. Skyscraper page is not a reliable source as it is user generated, so we shouldn't be using it as a go to source WP:UGC. Robynthehode (talk) 22:09, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

User:North8000, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Nice work. Regarding wp:notability, this article is sort of three topics in one, (McGinnis, the company, and the tower style) which could raise questions on what the wp:notable topic is. But IMO it is probably best and overall notable as-is. Happy editing!

@North8000:Thanks! True the article does make note of multiple topics. I thought about making a seperate one for the tower design itself but wasn't sure whether it was notable enough and if split into multiple topics they would each be stubs whereas all in one it makes for a more substantive article. But I'm always open to suggestions either way.LayfonCSR (talk) 01:52, 10 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

List of tallest industrial buildings moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, List of tallest industrial buildings, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Mccapra (talk) 03:26, 21 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

All the items on the list have their own wikipedia pages which are easily accessible by clicking on the individual items and they are properly source within each and everyone of those pages. Is it not redundant to add references on a simple listing page? Not to mention the double standard here. For instance why are the no links next to any of the individual items on the List of tallest buildings and structures? Or for that matter almost any of the buildings on the List of tallest buildings. Should we consider these pages to be largely unsourced as well then? Out of a total of 73 items on that list only 2 of them have citations. What's the difference between those 2 items and the 71 others on the list? Those two items do not have their own wikipedia pages. So please explain this inherent contraction; why this standard, which is commonly employed throughout wikipedia, does not apply to the List of tallest industrial buildings?LayfonCSR (talk) 05:22, 21 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

About Draft:List of tallest industrial buildings

edit

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:List of tallest industrial buildings a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Tallest industrial buildings. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

The article Tallest industrial buildings has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Copy of Draft:List of tallest industrial buildings that still needs to be improved; in short, no references state that these buildings are the tallest.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Zoozaz1 talk 22:52, 7 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

I assume you didn't check the references because it is clearly specified in the very first one that it is the tallest industrial building in the world.LayfonCSR (talk) 08:00, 14 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

'List of famous transmission sites'

edit

I see you have added a link to 'List of famous transmission sites' to various articles. I have changed this on a number of these because there is no such article as 'List of famous transmission sites'. Instead the actual linked article is 'List of transmission sites'. 'Famous' should not be used in relation to this article and I have changed the descriptive intro of the article to 'notable' sites. Please change any other pages you have edited to the correct article title. Thanks. Robynthehode (talk) 07:07, 6 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
