Image(s)[edit]

This article lacks an image. There is a 413 meter tall building and Wikipedia has no picture of this tower. Might someone upload one at Commons, so that other Wikipedias can use it as well? Jerchel (talk) 15:59, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Issue was resolved, an image was added. --DoctorTamago (talk) 21:16, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted links found on its Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 20:48, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sculpted tower?[edit]

The article claims It is the tallest sculpted tower in the world., which should have a citation.

Does that mean it is a sculpture? Sculptures are usually statues or reliefs, which I think this building is not. 212.50.203.198 (talk) 17:41, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
