• To me, "Tallest steel roller coaster drops" means the height above ground that the drop is located. Why not use "greatest" or "largest" drop?

• The consecutive rankings in image captions in the 'Poll rankings' sections are unreferenced, and that info does not appear elsewhere in the article, so the captions need inline citations.

• What does "Max. Vertical Angle" mean? This looks to be nearly 180° from the vertical.

• Max. Vertical Angle usually deals with drops and not the lift that is pictured in that photo. Besides, that would be considered 90 degrees, not 180.--Astros4477 (talk) 15:26, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Oh, so it's the angle from the horiztonal. This should be defined or explained somewhere. Just as a side note, in loops, is there not every possible angle experienced, seeing as they are full circles? —Andrew_stalk

• Well Max. Vertical Angle is on drops, a vertical loop is considered to be an inversion.--Astros4477 (talk) 01:54, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Which roller coaster(s) held the "Tallest wooden roller coaster" record from March 1992 to June 2009? —Andrew_stalk 22:54, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Son of Beast would have held it from 2000 (see below). Will do some digging for 1992 onwards. Themeparkgc  Talk  23:51, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• The Rattler held the record from March 1992 to May 2000. It's being converted into a steel roller coaster for the 2013 season so its no longer a wooden roller coaster, that's why it was removed.--Astros4477 (talk) 18:27, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• What about the "Largest wooden roller coaster drop" from May 2000 to June 2009? —Andrew_stalk 22:54, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• That was Son of Beast. It became standing but not operating in June 2009 and stood until this year actually. You can see it in this edit before it was removed on July 28.--Astros4477 (talk) 23:27, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• • Well check out the article Roller Coaster DataBase, you'll find why its notable. It's been referred to in a ton of news articles. I don't get why its reliability is in question, its a perfectly good source.--Astros4477 (talk) 19:17, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • For future reference, notability has nothing to do with reliability; a site can meet our notability requirements and still not be considered reliable (IMDB, for example). Most of the sources in the article don't make any reference to how reliable Roller Coaster DataBase is, but a couple use statistics from it. That's a positive sign. Still, I want to see some proof that Ultimate Roller Coaster is reliable before dropping the oppose. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:20, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • I personally don't see any reason as to why it wouldn't be. Yes it's not up to date but all the information matches RCDB. There's only a few places where we actually need the URC ref. Like I said though, it looks like it hasn't been updated in a few years but all the information matches that of RCDB.--Astros4477 (talk) 23:29, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        • Well, we need evidence as to why it is reliable in its own right, not just a lack of proof that it isn't reliable or having its statistics match another website. If RCDB is more reliable than URC, and can cover most of the areas that URC references, I suggest switching to that site where possible. Still. we're going to need evidence of URC's reliability if it is to remain in the article. Giants2008 (Talk) 18:11, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
          • So you want me to remove the URC ref wherever it's not technically needed? I did find this, I don't know if this makes it any more reliable.--Astros4477 (talk) 18:23, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
            • Yes, I think that would go some ways toward improving the sourcing. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:44, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
              • I removed the Ultimate Roller Coaster refs where I could.--Astros4477 (talk) 23:55, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
                • I'm happy that you did that, but I'm still not comfortable with the site being used, and as long as it is in the article my opposition stands. It looks like there are only two URC references left; are you sure you can't get the same information from better sources? Giants2008 (Talk) 21:33, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
                  • I removed both the remaining URC refs. The first supported an interesting fact but if its the difference between it passing, I guess it's better to remove it.--Astros4477 (talk) 21:56, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
