	Emporis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emporis' stated goal is to list and photograph every major building in the world: from a hut to a skyscraper.
		Emporis is considered by many organizations and publications to be the authoritative source of building rankings.
		In 2005 Emporis was on the receiving end of legal demands it remove SkyscraperPage diagrams after it added them without permission of the individual artists but with an understanding between its owners and the owner of SkyscraperPage.

	EMPORIS' SKYLINE RANKING METHODOLOGY IS SEVERELY FLAWED! - SkyscraperCity
		Emporis' discontinuous point allocation scheme awards 300 points to the Trump Building (282.5 m) but only 200 points to the GE Building (259.1 m), simply because the latter misses the 70 floor cutoff by one floor.
		The essence of Emporis' approach is to simply rank the visual impact of each city's skyline, and they succeed admirably in so doing.
		It should also be pointed out that Emporis does not have a height for many buildings, only a floor count, so if they did their rankings based on height many buildings in some cities would be completely left out.

	Tallest Hotel in the World - 2Bangkok.com Forum
		Emporis website actually gives the title now to Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea but I believe that that was not completed or opened!
		On that note I noticed another editor at emporis has added to the building fact that *Baiyoke 2 is an all hotel.
		That's not true because the hotel occupied the 22nd floor to 74th floor and the lower part occupies by a garment center.

	Chicagoist: Chicago Skyline Ranked 4th Worldwide
		Emporis has ranked Chicago as the world's 4th most impressive skyline.
		Emporis actually once was skyscrapers.com, has a lot of the same people, and editorially stated that the "big three" were New York, Chicago, and Hong Kong and it's impossible to try and compare them or rank them because they're different things that give them merit.
		Emporis' listing is purely technical and takes into account nothing like architectural ingenuity, personality, context, significance of the buildings in it, etc.

	Official skyline ranking of world cities - Wired New York Forum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Keep in mind Emporis rates buildings such as those of Stuyvesant Town or LeFrak city in Queens as skyscrapers.
		Those probably wouldn't be considered skyscrapers by an "american" definition of the word but according to Emporis they are.
		Emporis gives a lot of weight to the number of buildings, starting with buildings as low as 12 stories, which you hardly notice in a skyline of 50-100 story buildings.

		Appearances aside, Emporis lists Nashville as having 101 buildings of a minimum of 100 feet tall and/or 10 stories (the statistics are a bit inconsistent, but clear enough).
		Alas, contacting Emporis officials for an explanation is next to impossible, as there are no U.S. phone numbers on the Web site.

	World's tallest building in Dubai? - 2Bangkok.com Forum
		Skyscrapers.com (now Emporis) doesn't feature this building yet (strangely enough), but should be recommended anyway if you are interested in highrises
		There are certainly competitors that will eventually beat Taipei 101 (http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=100765), but I think there are currently no other concrete plans for a building over 600 m (we have to assume that Burj Dubai will definitely surpass that mark)!
		I'll try to source out any news from from other emporis editors responsible for Dubai.
