Page size
With 217,522 bytes of markup, this page is now far too big, and needs to be subdivided. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:03, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
 * 217,000 Bytes isn't so much, there's no urgency to subdivide the page when there are several pages close to or over 500,000. N1TH Music (talk) 06:36, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
 * This list is now at 386 KB. I think it's a bit of a problem not only for this list but also the other pages that are this big or larger. This page feels harder to navigate because there's a lot of scrolling to get to the actual lists. In the spirit of Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, I'd recommend dropping the lists of approved, proposed, emergent, and unbuilt buildings. Likewise, I'd delete prose talking about future buildings or just listing buildings that are also on the actual list. Some of the skyline photos which only have one tall building can also be consolidated into the list or the articles on those buildings. -- Beland (talk) 21:57, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Omitted towers
An explanatory footnote says that "the suburban tower blocks located across the region have been omitted from this section". Is that because they are below 35 meters high? If not, that seems rather arbitrary. -- Beland (talk) 21:58, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
