Himeji Castle 17
Notre-Dame 26
Shwedagon Paya 17-3= 14 Least appealing on this exquisite list. After Notre Dame that is, but it seems invincible up there...
Statue of Zeus 10
Taj Mahal 33
Temple of Artemis 7+1=8 Go Diana! Can this make the top 5? For wonder woman and all women?

Statue of Zeus 10-3=7 - The statue was inside a temple. It would be the same like Lincoln Memorial. The main thing - the statue of Abraham Lincoln - is inside. I would like this as a great work tho. And Artemis is better

Himeji Castle 18 + 1 = 19 I'll try to get it up as much as I can.
Notre-Dame 26
Shwedagon Paya 14 - 3 = 11 We have three wonders of Southeast Asia on the list, and for me this is a lower priority than the other two.

Notre-Dame 27 (26 + 1) -- Yes, there are many more splendid Gothic cathedrals--like Westminster Abbey or Notre Dame de Reims--but Notre Dame de Paris is iconic. I say include them all.
Shwedagon Paya 11
Statue of Zeus 7
Taj Mahal 33
Temple of Artemis 5 (8 - 3) -- Not interested in Greek temples.

Shwedagon Paya 11+1=12 I already gave my reason
Statue of Zeus 7
Taj Mahal 33-3=30 The Taj Mahal can take this hit but I will not down vote it any further.

Angkor Wat 27 - 3 = 24 (With an SEA expansion on the way, at least one SEA wonder will be included. I think Angkor can take a small equalizing hit for now.)
Borobudur 26
Himeji Castle 19
Notre-Dame 27 (Coming for you next. You, dear ma'am, are a pretty but meaningless nothing whose sisters look almost exactly like you.)
Shwedagon Paya 12
Statue of Zeus 7
Taj Mahal 30
Temple of Artemis 2 + 1 = 3 (Disagree with Siptah on this. It's too important to drop out, regardless of whether one thinks it's visually dull, which is silly, and too easily influenced by the fact people know how big the Parthenon is and yet have little idea of how huge the Temple of Artemis was. Also, Wonder Woman.)

Himeji Castle 16 (19 - 3) The argument I keep seeing for this is that we need a Japanese wonder. I'm certainly in favor of geographic and cultural diversity when it comes to civ and wonder selection, but Japan is far from the only region or country without wonders in the game.
Notre-Dame 27
Shwedagon Paya 12
Statue of Zeus 7
Taj Mahal 31 (30 + 1) Probably the most iconic and recognizable wonder remaining on the list.

Himeji Castle 16 + 1 = 17 We do not have any castle in the game, we have no Japanese structure in the game. This is beautiful, impressive and visually unique. An oriental castle like wonder.
Notre-Dame 27
Shwedagon Paya 6 - 3 = 3 Impressive, but for me, it is the wonder of Southeast Asia less priority on the list.

Someone could argue that Alhambra is a castle wonder.
It may be, though I see it more as a palace than as a castle. Although we still do not have an Eastern castle

Statue of Zeus 4 (7-3) Doesn't work well in civ VI and should rather be a great work.

Notre-Dame 25 - 3 = 22 (Generic pretty cathedral is generic.)
Shwedagon Paya 4 + 1 = 5 (Now here's a unique structure, from a culturally underrepresented region, with a great loud style that is memorable and awe-inspiring.)
Statue of Zeus 4
Taj Mahal 31
Temple of Artemis 2 (Bah, likely too late to save this one. But Wonder Woman will be remembered! May Artemis, goddess of the Amazons, be proud of the Temple's stand in this thread thus far.)
