Proposal to colour this list[edit]

In case there are an WP:ISLE members (or other editors) who are watching this but not the other related articles, I have made a proposal to colour the entries in the four lists of Marilyns in Scotland. See Talk:List_of_Marilyns_in_the_Southern_Highlands. — ras52 12:45, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Propose to re-direct page[edit]

This is an old list of Marilyns on data which is out of date (some measurements have been updated, especially prominences), and whose sourcing is unclear (and thus, the data is not really useable). A new article, List of Marilyns in the British Isles, now includes all the Scottish Marilyns (sortable vs. all the 2,011 British Isles and vs. just English), and the data is sourced from an October 2018 download of the Database of British and Irish Hills (the best database for mountains in the British Isles). The DoBIH tables also show the topo map, map section, grid ref and other classifications of each Marilyn. The table is also linked (each Marilyn linked to their own Wikipedia article where it exists). The new table is also in a format that it can be downloaded and updated again from the DoBIH in the future without much editing (and thus limits WP:OR issues, which are important when downloading from what is a Primary source), and thus by keeping all Marilyns in one Wikipedia article, we have a better chance of maintaining the integrity and accuracy of the Marilyn lists and data. Note, that some Marilyn articles have "parent" peak data (which seems also unsourced), however the DoBIH will not list parent peaks outside of defining parents of "tops" (as per the new Wikipedia articles on Munro Tops, Donald Tops etc.), or other low-prominence peaks (e.g. Nuttall), and in particular, the DoBIH will not list "parents of parents", and will not list parents of Marilyns. I think their approach is correct, as I think this issue can cause much confusion among non-technical readers.Britishfinance (talk) 17:00, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done Per above, am re-directing this page to the 2018 new page on Marilyns (List of Marilyns in the British Isles) that contains all the data on this page (bar parents, which are not appropriate), and are up to date with latest measurements. Britishfinance (talk) 10:47, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
