References do not support that this article meets WP:NLIST. Pattaya is the 11th largest city in Thailand, so I do not believe that a list of the tallest buildings for this city would be inherently notable. MrsSnoozyTurtle 07:16, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete We seem to have many similar articles. [1] Most of them appear to be based on databases of building information posted by sites like emporis.com, skyscrapercenter.info. The same is true here; the problem is that the other sources used in this article, iges.or.jp, bangkokpost.com, tci-thaijo.org, magnacarta.co.th and accessinitiative.org do not discuss these buildings, either individually or as a group (as required by NLIST) at all. Rather they discuss planning issues and environmental impact of tourism, or as, per a summary at [2] "The paper investigates the influences of tourism on environmental sustainability of Pattaya beaches where are greatly affected in both positive and negative ways seeking for the solution to maintain Pattaya as one of the major tourist destinations of Thailand in the future". The paper itself is at [3] Vexations (talk) 12:06, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Vexations for all of these details. Also I think there are WP:SELFPUB with some of the sites used as references. For example, the link at www.skyscraper.info for submitting new data says "The Skyscraper Center allows anyone to submit building data to our database as long you provide us with some basic information about yourself".

Comment: Pattaya has the country's second highest concentration of skyscrapers, after Bangkok. That said, there isn't a standalone list for Bangkok, and noteworthy Pattaya entries should already be included in the Thailand list. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:42, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Based on the rationale above by the nominator and other editors. The article does not meet WP:NLIST. We can't host list articles like this on every city around the globe. Netherzone (talk) 16:54, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is a massive building boom which has destroyed Pattaya unfortunately. Any standaout towers can go into the main list, if they are truly unique. scope_creep^Talk 11:57, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
