List of tallest buildings in Houston

[edit]

Self-nomination. Another tallest building list, modeled after FLs such as List of tallest buildings in Minneapolis and List of tallest buildings in Pittsburgh. I have been working with Alaskan assassin, Hydrogen Iodide and Postoak to bring this list up to FL standards, and I think it is now there. I believe it to meet all FL criteria, in that it is comprehensive, stable, well-referenced, well-organized, useful, and complete. As always, any concerns brought up here will be addressed.

Comment The only thing I see wrong with this article is that references 33 through 63 are just skyscraperpage links with no links to emporis. Besides that its perfect. Alaskan assassin (talk) 04:01, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks for catching that. It may take awhile, but I will fix them all. Cheers, Rai•me 04:09, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
 Done - Never mind, I guess it took a lot less time than I had thought. Anyway, all of the "doubled" SkyscraperPage links have been removed, and Emporis refs have been added. Cheers, Rai•me 04:23, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Another great effort, definitely worthy of FL status. VerruckteDan (talk) 13:56, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Support Some of the notes in the table are not sourced at all. Especially, those "formerly known", "also known", and "originally known" names that are unsourced. I checked both Emporis and SkyscraperPage, and I can't find that JPMorgan Chase Tower was known as Texas Commerce Tower, or Wells Fargo Bank Plaza was known as Allied Bank Plaza, etc. --Crzycheetah 20:24, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done - I have added references for all of the "former name" entries that required them. What other notes need references? The "tallest constructed in the..." decade notes are easily discernable from the sortability of the "Year" column. -- Rai•me 21:23, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • That's better. One more thing, the links to the world and U.S. lists should be added to all notes, not just for the Chase Tower. The reason is that if I sort alphabetically, the order of the notes is going to change and those links will be at the bottom instead.--Crzycheetah 22:39, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
