  • It looks like there are other heights listed in the article. The Sports Illustrated article reports 7 ft 5 for example in its title (although technically slightly under that in the article itself). I would think if we were to feature a height hook with specific measurements we would need to address the discrepancies between sources in some fashion. The article should do that too. As it is, I don't think we can run this hook as is because of the differing measurements between sources. Otherwise the article is new enough, long enough, and within policy.4meter4 (talk) 21:32, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
    • @4meter4: Would saying "is at least 7 ft 3 in (2.21 m) tall" work? Everything on her seems to have that height or more (as with SI). BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:50, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
  • 4meter4, could you please respond to the query above? Schwede66 22:33, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Schwede66 I asked for a second opinion at the DYK talk page two days ago. Still waiting to hear back from well anyone. I'm not comfortable with moving forward on this one without some additional input from others.4meter4 (talk) 22:35, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Right; I missed that. BeanieFan11, I suggest that 4meter4 is correct and the article should discuss that sources differ, and list what various reliable sources give. Once done, your suggested hook alteration is fine. I've added this as ALT1 and struck ALT0. Schwede66 23:14, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
