Source snapshot: 2026-10-05. Range membership uses explicit Wikidata relationships and recorded parent ranges. Additional assignments match summit coordinates inside published GMBA v2 standard mountain polygons, using the most specific eligible hierarchy node. Countries and coordinate boxes are not used to guess a range. These imported assignments have not been independently field-verified; missing evidence remains open.
