There are certain issues raised for this featured list. Such as the list is no longer being updated, contain an excessive number of citations and have some irrelevant citations. The list is also messed up such as some of them is not centred, and there are also a citation needed tag. This list differs a lot than when this was nominated as FL.

- I do not agree with all the criticisms. The number of citations does not seem excessive as there are only 128 in total and no more than two for any building. One picture not centred and one citation needed are minor and easily fixable. The list is being updated with new buildings, but it is not clear how consistently, and there are references to buildings due to be completed in 2012 and 2013. There is also a statement of the building which is "currently" tallest without a date. The article is below FL but it should not be too difficult to fix the problems if anyone wants to take it on, so I would think it is too early to delist.

I do agree this page needs a lot of work. Tallest under construction section has a broken table, and is completely out of date (all buildings were supposed to be complete 4 years ago). I suppose we can just get rid of this section all together. Table is missing 2 coordinates, 1 needs formatting, 1 image needs formatting, ranking is broken for sorting purposes (it goes 1, then 10, then 11), statements like " 123rd-tallest in the world" have long been inaccurate, some notes have centered justification, others right. Sentences like "This lists ranks Singapore skyscrapers" is no longer good style for featured lists, and is used several times. "The "Year" column indicates the year in which a building was completed." should be deleted, and the column called "year completed"... The first link I clicked was a dead link not sure about others. I vote for delist, but the page is salvageable if someone has the time and effort to do so. Mattximus (talk) 01:15, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist with regret. Needs care and attention. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:17, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Agreeing with the nominator and two commentators; this is currently below FL class. It's not unsalvagable, but after 3 weeks it appears no one is going to be working on it anytime soon. Delisting. --PresN 01:05, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
