List or table?

[edit]

I think the data that could be presented in this list might better be presented in a wiki sortable table. For an example of such a table please take a look at the List of museums in Connecticut article or the List of Registered Historic Places in Fairfield County, Connecticut article. Note that by clicking on column headings it is possible to reorder the list. Such reordering would be convenient for this mountain/summit list since it is defaulting to sort by peak name. If it were in a sortable wiki table it would be possible to sort from highest elevation to lowest (e.g.) or sorted by town name (making it possible to extract mini lists to climb all the highest points in the city of Stamford for example). Reworking the punctutation for the wikitable will probably be easier to do now with very few data in the table, rather than later after more data are added. Does anyone else agree with the proposal to putting the list into a sortable table? Does anyone oppose doing so? Thanks. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Examples of mountian list articles with data presented in sortable wikitables can be found at: Mountain peaks of Alaska, Fourteener, Mountain peaks of California, or Highest mountain peaks of Colorado for example. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:51, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is an example with 146 145 144 136 entries. I note that some (e.g. Todd Rock Pillar, Seymour Rock Summit, etc.) should probably not be listed. I also note that some have been omitted. E.g. the West Rocks Summit in Norwalk is supposed to be the highest elevation within the city - however, its prominence may not be very great (the high flat spot was used as an airport in the 1920s and 1930s). Another "problem" is that sorting on longitude is not possible. If you click on the coordinates column header you can sort on latitude and thereby list summits ordered from north to south or vice versa. However in this format you cannot sort and list east to west or vice versa. Perhaps duplicating the longitudes in another column would help, but I suspect it would be confusing to provide such a table. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:15, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In addition I think College Hill Summit should be removed from the article and this table since it is in Norfolk, Connecticut in northern Litchfield County and is not in Fairfield County. I have edited this table to take it from 146 down to 145 entries. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:23, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think Tenmile Hill summit in Gaylordsville is in Litchfield County not Farfield (it is north of Connecticut Route 55). I have removed it and trimmed the list down to 144 entries (and I'd still like to remove the eight 0 foot high "summits" as well). 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:49, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently I was wrong about Tenmile Hill. According to the cited map from Hagstrom it is in Sherman and only near (not in) Gaylordsville. List count goes back up to 145 entries. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 23:49, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The "Straits Rock Summit" entry may have to be removed since it may be in Gaylordsville, Connecticut - a town in Litchfield County. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 01:04, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
According to the Hagstrom map Straits Rock Summit (east of Gaylord Road) is in Litchfield not in Fairfield. List count drops back down to 144 entries. A new table with rejects has been started below the Fairfield table. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 23:49, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved the 8 "summits" (pillars?) out of the table derived from mountainzone and into a third table down at the bottom of this section. Each one was listed by mountainzone (who obtained their data from USGS perhaps?) as having an elevation of 0 feet, 0 meters. Many appear to be rocks/shoals in Long Island Sound that are simply too small in elevation to merit being listed in my opinion. List count drops down to 136 entries. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:11, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
