More on "sperrins most southerly missing"Context of comment:Further on the Missing Sperrin!
Message:Thanks for the report. MountainViews member madfrankie took a look at this one and on the map it appears to have a prominence of 24 metres. As we have said before one of the main things we need to check is prominence. A 419m summit must have a prominence of at least 30m to be included in MV's current lists. Otherwise we would be including things that couldn't really be called hills. One trend in newer mountain lists is to require a prominence of at least 50m however MV has been sticking to 30m
Of course on the other hand if someone goes out and measures that Slieveard has a prominence of 30m, then we would include it.pquinn572

sperrins most southerly missingContext of comment:adding of a sperrin mountain
Message:A mountain by the name of Sliveard at a hieght of 419m is missing from the Sperrin Mountains. It is close and on the same long ridge as mullaghcarn just above the village of gortnagarn outside omagh. It is known locally as rylaghy Top and if logged it would become the most southerly of the sperrin mountains.simon3

Re MullaghmeenContext of comment:Suggestion that Mullaghmeen, as a county top, be included in the list of summits.
Message:We are currently preparing a revised list of summits with a number of detailed corrections and including for the first time, prominence information.
We will also be including the county tops not currently included in the existing list.
Actually there are only three of them.
Expect to see the revised list this year.simon3

Re Foreign MountainsContext of comment:Suggestion about a separate forum for reports on summits outside Ireland.
Message:Sure, put reports into the General Forum.
I'll put a separate forum when there appears to be some demand for it, as this would be a great idea.ciaranr
