The Under construction section is much longer than the existing structures. Someone really needs to weed many of those out.Reywas92Talk21:29, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, there will be so many more proposed buildings in the next few years, it would be impossible to keep up. In my opinion, the newly proposed buildings in the other template should be removed, just leaving the cancelled and visions.timsdad(talk)10:19, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Trans National Place was found in the under construction template, but when I visited the article, it stated that the construction for the building was scheduled to begin in 2008!! I think someone should move this back into the proposed supertall skyscrapers section.
When Hydrogen Iodide moved Burj Dubai Lake Hotel to The Address, I noticed that entries that began with "the" were alphabetized under "T." Isn't it customary for entries that begin with "the" to be alphabetized by the next word? In other words, should "The Address" and "The Marina Torch" be alphabetized as "Address" and "Marina Torch," respectively?Leitmanp (talk |contributions)21:46, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Could the countries of the said buildings be added to the list so we know where abouts they are? —Precedingunsigned comment added by79.69.190.34 (talk)19:29, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think the Wordl Trade Ceter is the best history because yes—Precedingunsigned comment added by201.68.57.120 (talk)22:58, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Doesn't this deserve a mention somewhere?131.111.184.95 (talk)00:38, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not to be pedantic (well, OK just a little bit!) but, why is there a category called "Middle East" and another one called "Asia"? Shouldn't these 2 categories be merged into just one -- "Asia"? /geography Nazi—Precedingunsigned comment added by68.103.79.151 (talk)20:09, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Many building in here no longer fit in the section of the template they are in. For example thePentominium under the under construction section but is now on hold, or theCity Hall and City Duma is under the on hold section but is now cancelled and should be switched to the Supertall Proposed Skyscrapers template under the cancelled section. There are also building in this template that should be under the Supertall Proposed skyscrapers template since they are only proposed and constrution has yet to begin. The Supertall Proposed skyscrapers template also likely needs revision.Stormchaser89 (talk) 6:46, 28 August 2011 (US Central)
"supertall" skyscrapers need a definition, clear, in the template. I know a lot of tall skyscrapers and very tall skyscrapers and I dont know is I must paste those here or not, we need a size standard, 100 Metres? 200 metres? 600 meteres? what is the minimun?--Feroang (talk)02:47, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The template is woefully out of date, most notably the UAE section. To elaborate, here are my proposed changes:
Move from "Under construction" to "completed" –DAMAC Residenze (completed 2018),The Address Boulevard (completed 2017),Marina 101 (completed 2017).Move from "Under construction" to "construction delayed or suspended" –Dubai Pearl,Pentominium,Marina 106.
As for supertall towers currently under construction in the UAE, there are a few, but none have Wikipedia articles. They are, in decreasing order of height: Ciel Tower (366 metres), Il Primo Tower 1 (356 meters), Uptown Tower 2 (340 meters), Grande (338 meters), AMA Tower (333 Meters), One Za'abeel (330 meters), Adventz Tower (328 meters), Al Wasl Tower (302 meters) and Jumeirah Gate (303 meters).
Additionally, every single tower listed in the India section is also currently either on hold or cancelled. There are no towers in India taller than 300 meters that are actively being constructed at the moment.
Jeddah Tower in Saudi Arabia has also been on hold since early 2018. Diamond Tower in the same city doesn't appear to have seen construction since about then either, and is classed as On Hold by Skyscrapercity.
As for South Korea, the three LCT towers are all completed, in November 2019. The three tower links all lead to the same article, so it might be better to just list the whole complex (Haeundae LCT The Sharp) in the template. The remaining tower, Parc1 Tower, is so close to completion as of this writing that you might as well move that one to Completed as well.
The China section is a little too unwieldy to describe here. I hope to one day get enough editing access and time to have a proper deep dive into it and sort out the completed and postponed towers, of which there are quite a few.Codraroll (talk) 22:18, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Codraroll (talk)22:18, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Partly done: I've started by movingMarina 101 andAddress Boulevard, because their articles both have sources for their respective completion.DAMAC Residenze seems to have no source for its completion in its own article, so it'd be best if you find aWP:RS for that. I haven't looked at any others yet, but I think they should be treated the same way: if they have a source already, I'll move them, otherwise, see if you can find one (and add it to the article, while you're at it). Regarding youruser rights, you should only need six more edits (I think, from looking at your contribs) to become autoconfirmed yourself, at which point you'll be able to both edit this template and create articles for all the skyscrapers that still need some.Rummskartoffel (talk)23:01, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply] Partly done: I've movedDubai Pearl as well now.Pentominium was already in "delayed or suspended", but its article needs updating according to a maintenance template, which might make for another potential project for you. I haven't movedMarina 106, because its current status appears to be unsourced.Rummskartoffel (talk)23:15, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply] Partly done: I've movedPalais Royale, Mumbai andWorld One; all the other Indian ones appear to have no sources for their status.Rummskartoffel (talk)00:03, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply] Partly done: I've moved bothJeddah Tower andDiamond Tower (Jeddah) and edited the latter's article accordingly.Rummskartoffel (talk)10:16, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply] Partly done: I've now movedHaeundae LCT The Sharp as well. I thinkParc1 Tower should be moved once it's finished. That's all I'm gonna do for now, but you can always reactivate the edit request and someone will come along and take a look.Rummskartoffel (talk)10:34, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]Varso Tower is currently (as of 20th of March 2021) under construction in Warsaw, Poland. It's scheduled to be finished around the end of 2021.

change 1 Manhattan Westto One Manhattan Westwhich is the name of the article itself2603:7000:4BF0:620:3065:D92:8E53:B7AF (talk)18:13, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Note: While One Manhattan is indeed the name of the article (assuming that it's the common name), such a change would cause "1 Manhattan" (also used and a redirect) to be pushed down the list.M.Bitton (talk)22:07, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
