First name of the list[edit]

I would propose to use the peak's name, in first hand, instead of the mountain massif/range's name, since the altitude is (rather) associated with the peak, not the mountain itself, such as:

Secondly, I would propose to use the naming convention by swisstopo, i.e. to use rather the Swiss-German-like name instead of the German, such as Druesberg instead of Drusberg. Just check the map to decide.

I think it is certainly a good thing to display both names in case the summit of the mountain has a particular name, that is really helpful to the reader. Although I suggest to minimise in general the length of each entry by adopting a standard way of diplaying them (which can be briefly explained on the top). An example would be: "mountain name" ("summit name") or "mountain name" / "alternative mountain name" (the convention adopted in List of mountains of the Alps), and with a link of the size of the entry, this would give: Fluebrig (Diethelm), Rigi (Kulm) etc... For the second part: I'm not sure about the Swiss-German vs German use, but I guess nobody will mind if you use the swisstopo convention. ZachG (Talk) 16:01, 23 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
