Non-notable list - proposed deletion

Special:Random brought me to List of tallest buildings in Haaglanden, a list of the 20 tallest buildings in the metropolitan area around The Hague. There's one reference, which seems to be a wider list of tallest buildings in the Netherlands. Seems non-notable, but I'm still pretty uncertain about list notability. I've PROD-ed it, but like I said, I don't know how obviously non-notable this is, so maybe AfD is a better choice here. 0x0077BE [talk/contrib] 01:39, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

List of tallest buildings in major metropolitan areas is pretty standard fair for Wikipedia lists. Much like "Lists of people from...", there is no need for an independent citation to verify notability of the group. With that said, I would imagine finding a reliable source for tallest building in the Haaglanden shouldn't be all that hard.

Is there any particular reason why this is not necessary? I feel like if it doesn't have an unusual number of tall buildings, then it's just basically cruft. 0x0077BE [talk/contrib] 00:00, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
Tulsa Oklahoma has only one more building over 100 meters than The Hague and the List of tallest buildings in Tulsa was a featured list. There's a pretty wide consensus on Wikipedia for inclusion of lists of tallest buildings in major metropolitan areas. Also, 9 buildings over 100 meters is still fairly uncommon in the world today. --Dkriegls (talk to me!) 04:44, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
