Belem Tower - 11
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 32 (31+1) as luigilime said
Burj Khalifa - 24
Catedral de Brasília - 10 (13-3) not really a ww seriously!
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24
Osaka Castle - 19
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound - 26
St. Vitus Cathedral - 14
 
Belem Tower - 11 - 3 = 8 It is not bad, but I gave my reasons before.
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 32
Burj Khalifa - 24
Catedral de Brasília - 10
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24
Osaka Castle - 19 + 1 = 20 While I'm tired of protecting the Catedral de Brasilia. I will focus on defending the three most needed wonders on the list in my opinion: Osaka Castle, Hwangnyongsa and Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut.
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound - 26
St. Vitus Cathedral - 14
 
Belem Tower - 8 - A Portuguese wonder is needed. Although not the best choice, it should at least survive longer than Catedral de Brasília.
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 32
Burj Khalifa - 24
Catedral de Brasília - 10-3=7 - A third modern Brazilian wonder is not needed right now, and although late game religious temple would be nice, I prefer the Lotus Temple.
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 26+1=27 - A Korean wonder is quite needed, and Hwangnyongsa is a great choice for a Korean wonder that could come with Korean Civ.
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound - 26
St. Vitus Cathedral - 14
 
Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 32
Burj Khalifa - (24-3)=21 Meh, would come too late in the game to be of much help. Sometimes I managed to build Maracana and Sydney Opera House before winning, but not always.
Catedral de Brasília - 7
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound - (26+1)=27 North Amerindian representation, plus it's a unique shaped mound, for those thinking Monks Mound is a big pile of dirt.
St. Vitus Cathedral - 14
 
Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33 (32+1) as luigilime said
Burj Khalifa - 21
Catedral de Brasília - 7
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound -27
St. Vitus Cathedral - 11 (14-3) as many have said
 
Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 21
Catedral de Brasília - 7 - 3 = 4 (Unimpressive in the extreme. Looks like a Great Work of Sculpture rather than a world wonder.)
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24 + 1 = 25 (Could use some Egyptian wonders aside from the Pyramids for once, and this one stands out for its elegance and beauty.)
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound -27
St. Vitus Cathedral - 11
 
Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 21
Catedral de Brasília - 4
Duomo di Milano - 26+1=27 this on the other hand is not like any other
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound -27
St. Vitus Cathedral - 11-3=8 I prefer cologne cathedral for this kind of wonder, it's so similar to it, and I think it wouldn't represent czechia decently, I would rather have the astronomical clock, or Mendel's monastery in Brno.

I'm going to nitpick again - I'm Czech still learning English, but "many" refers to high countable amount, right? So I tried to search arguments of these "many" people and I found only luigilime and you :p

Yeah, maybe just say "As others have said" in your next downvote :p

\Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 21
Catedral de Brasília - 4 - 3 = 1 Not impressive; when you boil it down, really most modern buildings are better than it.
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 24 + 1 = 25 Not a pyramid! Mesoamerica is more than just pyramids and Aztecs, Firaxis.
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20
Serpent Mound -27
St. Vitus Cathedral - 8

Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33

Catedral de Brasília - 1 - 3 = ELIMINATED Not impressive in the grand scheme of things and Brazil has too many modern wonders

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25
Osaka Castle - 20

I just came to the conclusion that in these elimination threads the Sagrada familia was never present, that's definitely coming next round, I hope.

There are so many wonders proposed that it's hard to pick only 20/21/22 of them. But I think it will come once ;)
 
Belem Tower - 8
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 21 + 1 = 22
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 20 + 1 = 21 I looked to this, and WOW.
Serpent Mound -27 - 3 = 24 Not impressive
St. Vitus Cathedral - 8
 
Belem Tower - 8 - 3 = 5 As I said before
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 21 + 1 = 22
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 21
Serpent Mound -24 + 1 = 25 Yes, impressive, and North Amerindians are extremely underrepresented in the game.
St. Vitus Cathedral - 8
 
Belem Tower - 5
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 22 - 3 = 19 Temporarily the tallest structure in the world, which I'm sure will not stay for long and then come into the second plane. And this is very recent, when would it be unlocked? In future technology 5?
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 25 + 1 = 26 While the main Egyptian wonders on my wish list are the Sphinx of Giza and Abu Simbel, this would be a nice choice.
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 21
Serpent Mound - 25
St. Vitus Cathedral - 8
 
Belem Tower - 5
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33
Burj Khalifa - 20 (19 + 1) Temporary yes, but I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing that its inclusion would date the game. The significance of buildings change over time. Not even modern structures are exempt from this.
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 21
Serpent Mound - 25
St. Vitus Cathedral - 5 (8 - 3) There aren't many cathedrals that inspire my awe, like this one for example.
 
Belem Tower - 5
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 33-3=30 - How does this have so many points?
Burj Khalifa - 20
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 21
Serpent Mound - 25
St. Vitus Cathedral - 5+1=6 - @Zaarin said that he doesn't want his cathedrals to be assaulted, so someone has to protect it...
 
Belem Tower - 5
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 30
Burj Khalifa - 20
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 21
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 20
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Sanctuario de Las Lajas - (21-3)=18 I don't want a Modern era Religious wonder, all the Cathedrals on this list are better
Serpent Mound - 25
St. Vitus Cathedral - 6+1=7 Is more impressive and has more history than Sanctuario de Las Lajas

Well, at least one cathedral has been eliminated since Zaarin left...
