Factually wrong lists

by displaying china for Hong Kong buildings, these lists are factually wrong.

now it would appear that Bank of China Tower and Central Plaza are the first buildings in china to get into the lists, but in 1990 and 1992 by some editors' logic here they were United Kingdom's buildings. RZuo (talk) 19:26, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand your concern. Those entries reference Hong Kong as the city the buildings are in, China as the country the buildings are in, and 1990 and 1992 as the years those buildings were built. Which one of those facts are you contending is incorrect? Bartzyx (talk) 00:41, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first Chinese buildings to reach 1,150 feet were probably Shun Hing Square in 1996 and CITIC Plaza in 1997. 203.145.94.109 (talk) 14:27, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Bartzyx: As opposed to BOC Tower and Central Plaza which RZuo had pointed out. 203.145.94.109 (talk) 08:40, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@203.145.94.109: Early 1997. 219.76.24.199 (talk) 02:23, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to have a look at /Archive6#Hong Kong, Macau, and other similar cases. 219.76.24.219 (talk) 07:33, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RZuo what about adding "/United Kingdom between (year of completion) and 1997"? 219.76.24.222 (talk) 04:13, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why is the CN Tower not in this list…..

The CN tower stands at 553m which is taller than the OWTC, yet it’s not on the list, the list says buildings, but there are other towers on this list.

It held the world record for tallest building in the world from 1975 to 2007 Add the CN Tower. 2001:1970:5A58:FA00:F852:430E:810B:40E8 (talk) 02:51, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The CN Tower is considered as a freestanding structure, hence under CTBUH's guidelines it is not defined as a building.

Refer List of tallest structures for the complete list that includes all freestanding structures. PenangLion (talk) 15:51, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There's a specific definition of "buildings", which does not cover all human-made structures. 219.76.24.211 (talk) 08:11, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
