In this entry you have chart showing heights of peaks. You also have a column headed Relative Height. The words "Relative Height" link to a page that does not (so far as I can see) explain what Relative Height means and I with my small brain remain confused - Sorry for even asking!

I must admit I had no idea what you were talking about at first, but I tracked down the edit I did - it's from over a year ago! The original page was "List of mountains and hills of the United Kingdom". That has since been redirected to List of mountains of the British Isles by height.

I see in the original article, the tables had a column titled "Relative height", but on the new page that has been replaced with "Prom." (for Prominence). When you click on "relative height" in the sentence before the table it takes you to Topographic prominence.

I understand that relative height and prominence are the same thing. However, after reading through the Topographic prominence article, I don't think I can really explain it to you as I don't fully understand it myself. I only did that one edit on the article (because your question shouldn't have been in the article itself) and so I am not qualified to explain it to you.

You might want to ask User talk:Britishfinance as he/she has done the most edits on List of mountains of the British Isles by height so I guess he/she has a better understanding of it.

Sorry I wasn't much help.

Seems like the cuts might stick this time. Are you planning on continuing? If you do, I would suggest trimming even more from the few examples you leave behind. Maybe 3 at most per qualification. --Khajidha (talk) 19:30, 11 April 2019 (UTC)+[reply]

I will continue - I just haven't had the time lately. If you want to do some pruning, by all means go ahead. Ozzieboy (talk) 14:17, 13 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
