  • Can you look into removing the deprecated template? I'm not sure if it should be removed, but it should be checked.
  • You don't need to link to the publisher every time. Instead of "http://www.liverpoolworldheritage.com", do "Liverpool World Heritage".
  • I don't think the two last see also links are useful. It's like having a see also link to a "List of country" in article about a country.
  • Needs copyediting:
    • "Liverpools' skyline has been built up mostly in the last 100 years, the Royal Liver Building held the title of tallest structure in Liverpool for 54 years until St. John's Beacon was completed in 1965. " I think you want a full stop instead of the comma. Hmm, and change to Liverpool's.
    • "...completed buildings and structures in Liverpool, this excludes buildings..." --> "...completed buildings and structures in Liverpool, which excludes buildings..."
    • "contributing to Liverpool's rise" --> "which contributed to Liverpool's rise" (remove noun plus-ing structure)
    • Liverpools' needs to be changed to Liverpool's. It's one city.
    • "however this record" --> "but this record"

  • Comment: The tower of Liverpool Cathedral was completed in 1942. It was then, not in 1965, that the Royal Liver Building ceased to be Liverpool's tallest. The fact that the cathedral was not finished until 1978 is irrelevant. Brianboulton (talk) 23:20, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If the list is intended to develop into an article, it would be interesting to know the factors which influenced or determined the height of these lbuildings, i.e. any planning controls (maximum height) in place at the time, technological constraints (i.e. elevators, fundations...), etc. The skyline image suggests that there is maximum building height control in place stepping down towards the waterfront. In terms of wikitable layouts, alignig numbers to the right makes it always easier to compare the heights. Elekhh (talk) 02:25, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
