Topographic prominence

Topographic is very simply defined: Prominence = Height - Key col. There are several ways to define key col, but it obvious they are all equivalent because they each produce the same key col in every scenario...except for Mount Everest which has its own special definition when describing the prominence of the highest point on earth. --<span style="color:orange;">Racer</span><span style="color:black;">X<sup>11</sup></span> <small>''Talk to me''</small>''<sup>Stalk me</sup> ↗'' 02:12, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Riscola54, I am now in agreement with the virtually everything you have posted at Talk:Topographic prominence ↗. You and User:Thincat are doing a great job discussing the situation. Your knowledge on the subject clearly exceeds mine which is admittedly limited to little more than the article in question and what I've read on a few websites. If you do not wish to remove any of the definitions, then it is becoming clear that we should add some kind of disclaimer to the article, much like the one you initially added. You are welcome to make changes to the article anytime, but I would like to give a couple other editors a chance to weigh in on this while the discussion is still fresh. The ones I have in mind are very knowledgeable on the subject and may be very interested in what you have brought forth. If they don't join in soon I will probably drop a note at their talk pages tomorrow.

Btw. I hope there are no hard feelings about my reverting that edit of yours. I simply didn't understand the reasons behind those changes, but I think we will all benefit from the discussion that has ensued. This is a good example of how WP:BRD ↗ is supposed to work, and a good example of ''why'' it is good editing practice, even when the initial bold edit turns out to be correct.
