Not quite sure what you mean by this. Could you please be more specific? Themeparkgc  Talk  23:56, 21 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
"Each installation of Batman: The Ride has a track length of between 2,693 and 2,700 feet (821 and 820 m) and each reaches a height of between 100 and 105 feet (30 and 32 m)." Which coaster is 100 feet tall, which one is 105? Which one is 2,693, and which one is 2,700? From the way its worded, I understand it as one model is 100 feet while another one is 105, but I don't know which....or is it just the actually heights and lengths aren't known (if so, a reword would be nice)? Hope this helps, and if it doesn't just tell me and I'll try again....third time is the charm!--Dom497 (talk) 19:44, 23 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Took a look at the RCDB pages and I think you got it wrong. The original was 100ft, while the others were a mix of either 100 or 105.--Dom497 (talk) 23:16, 24 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
I did get the two measurements round the wrong way. The original was 100 while the others named Batman: The Ride were 105. Fixed now. Themeparkgc  Talk  00:56, 25 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • When talking about the ride layout, its describes one type of layout while there are mirrors which have the opposite. Maybe mention this somewhere in that section.--Dom497 (talk) 20:04, 21 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
There is already this line at the start of the section: "although the layout for each successive attraction is identical or a mirror image of the original" Themeparkgc  Talk  23:56, 21 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Well, it was ranked 5 times across all 7 installations over the last 15 years. I've included a couple of sentences to show this. Themeparkgc  Talk  04:09, 24 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
