Height

[edit]

Vraneš is 2.29m or 7ft6in. All sources leading to 2.26 are out of date, if new then simply not updated from old. He had to pass 2.26 to reach 2.29. Evlekis (Евлекис) 18:20, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's as may be but six years on, we have sources stating 2.30 as well as those that still say 2.29 and 2.26 etc. If you find sources from his boyhood you will probably get readings of 2.10 downward. --OJ (talk) 08:33, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Oranges Juicy: Man what are you doing??? Most reliable sources and almost all list him as 2.29 cm. And they are not outdated... he played last season in the Adriatic league and per their official website he is 2.29 cm, and also Euroleague.net list him with that height. And that are most reliable sources.--Bozalegenda (talk) 20:20, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The sources are not "out of date" but based on out of date information. You can still find sources that state 2.26. No source here is particularly special, but for what it's worth they are all pretty much equal from what I know. On a personal note (not intended to influence article), you know that people of this man's height are not exactly out of the ordinary in ex-Yu, least of all where Slavko is from. My own background is sport and we have one older man in a certain village on the outskirts of Mostar and he stands 2.30 himself and he and Slavko (who are associated) are bang on the same. I know for a fact he has surpassed 2.29. Anyhow, if we are to move forward we have two options. One is the unprecedented "2.29, or 2.30" with sources, the other is to present our sources for a third opinion and go with that decision. I won't challenge further if it goes to 2.29. But at the moment I cannot allow for what I know to be wrong based on "one source says this, the other says that". --OJ (talk) 16:26, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
