List of tallest buildings in New Orleans
Partial self-nomination (VerruckteDan is by far the list’s primary editor - I did some final work to get the list ready for FLC). Another tallest buildings list, modeled after FLs such as List of tallest buildings in Tulsa and List of tallest buildings in Portland, Oregon. I believe it to meet all FL criteria, in that it is comprehensive, stable, well-referenced, well-organized, useful, and complete. As always, any concerns brought up here will be addressed.

Comments Sorry it's such a lame review. I don't usually do these types of lists because it's not a subject I know anything about. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 07:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Refs [9] and [10] should be placed at the end of the sentence, or at least after punctuation mid-sentence.
 * ✅ -- Rai - me  11:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * "upon completion in 2009, it would become" → "upon completion in 2009, it will become"
 * "Would" is used to show that it is not a certain event, as the building is not even under construction. -- Rai - me  11:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * "While not new construction," - missing an S perhaps: "While not new constructions,"?
 * ✅ -- Rai - me  11:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Are columns usually left-justified, rather than centered?
 * Yes, that is the default setting for the wikitable. -- Rai - me  11:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you; all reviews are much appreciated. Cheers, Rai - me  11:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Support As Raime said in the nomination, I feel the list meets the FL criteria and follows the successful model of so many other "tallest buildings" lists. VerruckteDan (talk) 00:54, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Support - very good, well-referenced. MOJSKA   666  (msg) 08:21, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 *  Abstain Support I have notability issues again. Why is Loews New Orleans Hotel more notable than JW Marriott Hotel New Orleans? Why is First National Bank of Commerce Building notable? For W New Orleans, some kind of a description should be added in the "notes" column . -- Crzycheetah 23:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * ✅ - I have created articles for all three previously unlinked hotels. Although I don't think these high-rise hotels are notable, you are correct in stating that if the Loews Hotel as an article, then the other 3 should probably have articles as well, as there reason the Loews is more notable. Unlike the Albuquerque buildings, these buildings may be tall enough to be notable. I am not sure what you mean by some kind of a description should be added in the "notes" column - why? Most buildings on the list do not have descriptions, and there is really nothing worth mentioning about the W Hotel. Cheers, Rai - me  17:22, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I support. As for W New Orleans, I think that that name is confusing and a description needs to be written explaining what kind of a building it is. Other buildings' names basically imply what those buildings are for, i.e. banks, hotels, hospitals. "W New Orleans" doesn't imply much.-- Crzycheetah 08:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't it be easy for a reader to just click on the link and see what kind of a building it is? The "W" Hotel brand is a major hotel chain. I could change the entry name to W Hotel New Orleans, but that isn't the building's official name. Cheers, Rai - me  22:54, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
