My thoughts: it is possible to have NPOV-lists with POV-sounding titles: as
example, List of major opera composers is a featured list. The methodology
there is a good model: compile ten external, reputable lists of Major Opera
Composers and those who appear on the majority of those lists appear on the
Wikipedia list. That seems to work quite well, and it reflects existing
scholarship in this area accurately.
So, it might be worth seeing whether something similar could work with this
List of Tall Men. Is this at al possible?
Alternatively, something to think about might be a list of World Record
Holders for height, or something similar. But the current arbitrary
definition of x.y metres is not really acceptable. Arbitrary definitions are
original research.
Cheers,
Moreschi
