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)

List of mathematical shapes

NOTE, List of mathematical shapes (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) has been greatly expanded by 200kB this month, by users occupying IP ranges 99.xxx.xxx.xxx and 108.xxx.xxx.xxx who have also been reverting each other. Some of the new additions are not mathematical shapes at all, and a proposal to rename the page exists at talk:List of mathematical shapes. Up until this rash of activity it was only 2.5kB large -- 70.51.46.146 (talk) 05:19, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
