Change Height from 6’7 to 6’9

Source - https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/barnesc01.html KidsAwful (talk) 14:23, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The NBA source that's also cited in the infobox says 6'7. Not sure which source we prefer here. Cannolis (talk) 15:54, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: I'll make the judgment call of preferring the NBA source over the one provided by IP. Even if consensus or policy discards my judgment, that would still result in a discussion regarding the reliability of the sources and how to handle that, and the edit request would need to be marked answered during that process. —Sirdog (talk) 02:05, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, as the displayed field is "Listed height", it would generally make sense to use what is listed by their current employer.—Bagumba (talk) 02:23, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note to change "biggest weakness is shooting" in player profile
