468:(invited by the bot) The statement from the Knowledge (XXG) article looks cherrypicked, mis-summarized and removed from context. And Knowledge (XXG) is not a source for Knowledge (XXG). The definitions seem to allow for this to be called a skyscraper and emphasize that use of the title takes into consideration the buildings around it. Note that my comment said it was OK to use the term....does not mean that it is the best choice. I tend to say to lean away from "characterization" type terms when they are contested.

Whether sources refer to this building a skyscraper or not is irrelevant. Knowledge (XXG) gets its facts from sources, but not its language. Sources will tell us how many floors the building has, but not what word we should use to describe that height. Of course, examples from other
English
592:
Whoops. Yeah, I didn't get that at all from the stated question. I think you should reword the question if that's what you want comments on. I don't think anyone would mind if you just closed this RfC and started over. Or you could just modify this one if you prefer.
576:, just to be clear, the question is not 'what words should be used to describe the building in the article?', but rather, 'should the building be placed in the Knowledge (XXG) category "Skyscrapers in Montana"?'
450:) 15:42, 10 April 2017 (UTC) Also, Knowledge (XXG) content must be verifiable to a reliable source. Absent a reliable source that describes this building as a skyscraper, it's not our job to do so.

writing will tell us what common
English usage is, but that writing wouldn't have to be about this building in particular.
532:
I don't consider buildings under 40 floors to be skyscrapers. Encylopedia
Brittanica says most other people don't either.
