It is now called International Finance Building Number Two. Number one is a similar but half-sized building next to it.-- Anthony.bradbury 12:51, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
If you are able to find the source of this piece of information, go forward to edit the article, with the ref being cited. --: Raphaelmak: [ talk] [ contribs] 13:08, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
So where do you get this current progress data? Is there a source (please cite), or is it just local knowledge? -- Siipikarja ♫ 13:34, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

The floor count is 108, not 118. Developers prefer to increase some values at their website. Donald Trump also decleares the Trump World Tower with 90 stories and not 72, although 72 is correct. CTBUH has got elevation drawings which show 108 floors. Jerchel ( talk) 15:27, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Why would you think that blueprints are more reliable than anything other? Apart from the CTBUH website, do you have anything to support your claim? Towerblock ( talk) 17:31, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
This is all about your own words, we need reliable sources. So except the unofficial CTBUH, do you have any reliable sources to support yourself? Towerblock ( talk) 11:56, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Ok, please send to me, thanks. Also isn't the floor count should be the whole building, no matter it's below ground or whatever. Cheers Towerblock ( talk) 15:44, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Firest, I need your mail adress. Second, the first floor is considered floor 10, although it's the FIRST! Jerchel ( talk) 16:49, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Again, those basement floors do not existst. The first floor is the tenth. The floors 1-9 do not exisist. Those levels below ground had never counted, I suppose that are two or three and not ten. If you want include them, then write: Floors: above ground: 108; below ground: 3 (or whatever is correct). Jerchel ( talk) 12:58, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
The below ground floors never counted to a highrise. When you live in the second floor of a highrise, that would mean that you live below ground. I said that the blueprints show numbers of the floors and last floor is considered the 118th floor. But by looking down, I noted that the actual first floor is decleared as floor 10. The floors 1 until 9 are missing. The below ground floors have other names like "level B3" or so. Jerchel ( talk) 19:04, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
CTBUH may have outdated data, also can you please provide reliable sources proving the first 10 floors are missing. Towerblock ( talk) 02:58, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
you need to provide reliable sources to prove it rather than just make an uncertain explanation here, please do so. Towerblock ( talk) 15:36, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
I added the links in the box; if you belive them or not is not important and not relevant. Owners or developers like Ritz Carlton and Trump are well known in cheating the ACTUAL numbers, but they don't make the measuring rules. Just don't belive anything they report without thinking logical about things. Jerchel ( talk) 15:42, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
We need to prove it by references, not request it from third party, it needs to prove to everyone. Towerblock ( talk) 15:55, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
hmm I did not even know that "6 star" was a designation for hotels.

it says "is a108 floor.." but it has 118 floors right?
Plophk ( talk) 02:35, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The current sources agree that there are 108 floors. Thanks, Celestra ( talk) 06:31, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Every year, Hong Kong becomes uglier. Mutant-Americans may be responsible for attempts to graffiti the auto-free city. There should be a section in the article describing some of the criticism of the design and exposing some of the deliberate attempts to graffiti Hong Kong through deliberately bad construction in recent years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.109.2.24 ( talk) 14:33, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
I am removing the semiprotection of this article. Let's see what happens. Olivier ( talk) 18:27, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
The article dedicates a disproportionate amount of its sections to a commercial hotel in the building.
