[RFormica]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26 + 1 = 27 Yes! Very cool statues, too bad they're being demolished...
Burj Khalifa - 12
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 26
Hwangnyongsa - 25
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 18 - 3 = 15 Have to downvote something

[Vahnstad]

Buddhas of Bamiyan 27
Burj Khalifa - 12
Duomo di Milano - 27 - 3 = 24 Not that interested in it
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 26
Hwangnyongsa - 25 + 1 = 26 Looks great
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 15
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25

[Zaarin]

Buddhas of Bamiyan 27
Burj Khalifa - 12
Duomo di Milano - 24
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 27 (26 + 1) -- And the most deserving wonder is now tied for the lead.
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 15
Royal Palace of Palenque - 25
Santuario de Las Lajas - 13 (16 - 3) -- Its most distinctive feature is its location, which I doubt would translate well. Otherwise it's just one of hundreds of Gothic Revival buildings in the world, and I'd prefer to see an authentic Gothic cathedral (or ten).
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[conorbebe]

Buddhas of Bamiyan 27
Burj Khalifa - 13 (12 +1)
Duomo di Milano - 24
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 27
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 15
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22 (25 - 3) We already have two Mesoamerican Wonders in the game. Plus, Palenque is represented as a city-state.
Santuario de Las Lajas - 13
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Xandinho]

Buddhas of Bamiyan 27
Burj Khalifa - 13 - 3 = 10 CN Tower is not as recent as this. Maybe in 20 years the Burj Khalifa is viable as a wonder, but not now.
Duomo di Milano - 24
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 27
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 15 + 1 = 16 It is sad to see a Japanese wonder falling so fast, especially since Japan is unrepresented of wonder.
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 13
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Kimiimaro]

Buddhas of Bamiyan 27-3=24 - Shouldn't be in the lead.

Burj Khalifa - 10
Duomo di Milano - 25
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 27
Hwangnyongsa - 26
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 16
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - (13-3)=10 I don't want a Modern-Era religious wonder, and the most interesting thing about it is the location instead of the structure.
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Manifold]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26 (25+1) as Guandao said
Burj Khalifa - 10
Duomo di Milano - 25
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24 (27-3) not a very complicated man made building for the time. Not for the lead.

Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 16
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Morningcalm]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26
Burj Khalifa - 10 - 3 = 7 (About as storied as a common piece of recycled plastic.)
Duomo di Milano - 25
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24
Hwangnyongsa - 26 + 1 = 27 (Upvoted as the best pagoda wonder, and as Korea's best world wonder representative.)
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 16
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[luigilime]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26
Burj Khalifa - 7-3=4 the least appealing of the list

Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 16
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Homusubi]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26
Burj Khalifa - 1 It's just a big tower in an oil state, it's not really Civ material.
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 19 Presumably the Momoyama-period version. Don't go thinking it's not worthy because of the current iteration being less impressive than Himeji.
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Xandinho]

It seems that 3 points have been added to Osaka Castle instead of 1, correcting the mistake, this is the current list:

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26
Burj Khalifa - 1
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[God of Kings]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 26 + 1 = 27 Excellent statues to commemorate this razed wonder; the Iconoclasm religious belief could be added in as well with the ability to destroy any world wonder for faith
Burj Khalifa - 1 - 3 = ELIMINATED I have upvoted this for the longest time, but it would be better for Civ VII
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 24
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Zaarin]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 24 (27 - 3) -- Not interesting enough to be leading, IMO.
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25 (24 + 1) -- A beautiful structure that is the oldest cathedral in the world and the heart of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
Hwangnyongsa - 27
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23

 

[Xandinho]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 24
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 27 + 1 = 28 This is interesting enough to lead
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 23 - 3 = 20 Very distinctive, but I'm not interested in this more than the other wonders in the list

 

[Kimiimaro]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 24
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 28
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 22+1=23 - If we need another Mesoamerican wonder, let it be this. It's not another pyramid and it looks great.
Santuario de Las Lajas - 10
Serpent Mound - 20-3=17 - Not interested. Let's just admit it - Native Americans from North America weren't as good builders compared to Mesoamerican and South American Native Americans. When I look at it, it just doesn't strike me as much as the other options here.

 

[Guandao]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 24
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 28
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 23
Santuario de Las Lajas - (10-3)=7 No need for a modern-era Religious wonder.
Serpent Mound - (17+1)=18 You have a stone-bias. So what? Amerindians north of Mesoamerica built with wood and earth more. Doesn't make this any less impressive for a people without modern technology.

Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 23

Serpent Mound - 18

 

[Manifold]

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 25 (24+1) as before
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 22 (25-3) old church but not the oldest cathedral because there were a lot of seats of bishops (=Cathedral) in other cities before.
Hwangnyongsa - 28
Luxor Temple - 22
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 26
Osaka Castle - 17
Royal Palace of Palenque - 23
