Talk:Ryugyong Hotel

message: We say that it is also called the 105 Building, but the sources for this don't appear to be strong, and some of them might be circular sourcing. The sources note that it is also called the 105 Building, but they call it the Ryugyong Hotel. Who actually calls it the 105 Building?--Jack Upland (talk) 09:13, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: This was brought up in the 1st talk page archive in 2008, and removed for a while. It also doesn't actually have 105 floors or even 100. B137 (talk) 05:35, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

message: The claim of "The building is currently listed by Guinness World Records as being the tallest unoccupied building in the world" in the Summary should be removed because it is incorrect, as the linked source itself says the World's tallest unoccupied building is the GOLDIN FINANCE 117 in Tianjin, China.

thread_title:  Tallest building unoccupied Guinness World Record 

message: In any of the pre glass facade concrete photos, it's obvious that it only have 80 or 90 floors, not 100 or more. It's a very wide low angle pyramid and there may be some staggered levels, or basement floors as one photo shows a sloped grade at the bottom. B137 (talk) 21:22, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Does not have 105 consecutive floors 

message: The under construction photos of it's shell before glass facade show it has about 80 floors plus the 3 basement levels. The 105 number (+3b) is a simple extrapolation of it's 1,080 ft height divided by a generic 10ft/floor standard that mostly mid rise buildings loosely adhere to, giving it a marketing storey of 105 plus 3b.

message: hello - in review of the photo gallery section, it feels like there is an excessive amount of photos in this gallery. sometimes photos from within a day are provided, which is unnecessary in my opinion. suggest selecting key photos that are either 1) especially nice photos or 2) depict construction progress and dropping ones that do not add as much value to the article.

replies: text: Feel free to cull away. There are some photos there that are practically worthless.--Jack Upland (talk) 02:49, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added all the photos to commons:Category:Ryugyong Hotel, and agree removal of some from this article makes sense. CMD (talk) 03:03, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
