I am nominating this for featured list removal because it no longer meets the third Featured list criterion: comprehensiveness. It has a banner saying that the page has needed to be updated since 2014. Xx78900 (talk) 11:20, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist – This list has promoted back in 2008, and not has been reviewed since. The "updated" tag since 2014 is probably still valid. The table needs caption, and other accessibility parameters including colspan/rowspan. The "notes" column looks too wide. We could separate a column for just citations, which needs to be centered. The table doesn't sort well. Titles starting with "The" should sort based on the next word in the title. Various references are not formatted properly, with many being just bare links. I agree that the list needs significant changes to meet the present FL criteria, but I see a potential on this topic. If anyone interested wants to take it up, I'll be happy to provide detailed comments. Until then, I'll support it to be delisted. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:03, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist - Plenty of issues. "The heights of buildings listed here...", "This lists ranks..." is outdated terminology not used in featured lists. Very outdated sentences "as of July 2008". Images missing alt-text for accessibility. Non-buildings included (including a bunch of radio towers?). Just very out of date and in need of a thorough update. Very far from featured list.

- Delist, per others. Hog Farm Talk 15:44, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist – the list hasn't been updated and may be an inappropriate use of OR, given that the rankings are based on users identifying the tallest buildings themselves (how do we know the list is exhaustive to ensure accurate rankings?). RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:20, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Closing note: This candidate has been removed, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please see WP:FLC/ar, and leave the {{featured list candidates}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through. Giants2008 (Talk) 22:24, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
