Talk:Radio masts and towers

message: This is a merged and tidied up replacement for transmission tower and radio mast.
I've split some content, that seems less relevant in an 'overview' piece like this one, into two other pages: mast radiator and radio masts and towers - catastrophic collapses.Spliced 17:40, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Radio masts and towers - catastrophic collapses - article merge

message: It appears that User:Jorfer has merged in Radio masts and towers - catastrophic collapses. Was there any prior discussion of this?
Radio masts and towers was created in 2005 to merge Radio mast and Transmission tower. The list of collapses was split out from the latter on the grounds that they weren't a good fit for an overview article. Ditto mast radiator. Everyone seems to have been happy with that for two years. So why the hurry to merge this article now without a word of prior discussion? --Harumphy 11:15, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I went ahead and was bold with this article because it seemed like a good fit to be merged into this article (at least for me). Though the section is notable by itself, it is easier to access if it is on this page. If their is significant support against this then I am fine with it being moved back, but I think it is only appropriate that it be placed in this article.--Jorfer 20:22, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

message: You have proposed that List of tallest buildings in the world be merged with List of tallest churches in the world and List of tallest buildings in Europe.  Please see my discussion comments concerning this and definitely take a look at List of buildings.

thread_title:  Proposed article merges 

message: I read the beggining sentence or two, and it says "Radio masts and towers are, typically, tall structures designed to support antennas (also known as aerials in the UK)" By saying this they assume the reader doesn't come from the UK, and english wikipedia is meant for all people speaking english. So it should be changed. Jezzamon (talk) 07:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Introduction 

message: Is there a source to show the brightly coloured 'barber pole' in Durham actually exists and isn't a photoshop? Since most kit is made to be discrete it seems unlikely that the local authority would allow it, and the picture is very oversaturated and bad quality. It's an interesting photo, but unless it can be verified I propose it should be removed from the article. 199.89.212.202 (talk) 13:14, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Barber pole real? 

message: In case you (technicians?) find anything special about this tower that escapes me (I usually write about films and novels), feel free to put the pic somewhere into the article. I photographed a whole lot of possibly interesting stuff in Steinfurt because my mother's birthday will be soon and she loves this town, something she seems to have in common with German Telekom (which is based there).

message: I'm not sure how this managed to languish in the article for over five years (even if it was "hidden" in an HTML comment):
: the list of tallest towers only includes those that have collapsed or been dismantled, what about those still standing?
I assume this issue has been addressed by now. - dcljr (talk) 19:06, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
