Having been on these forums for a while now I have seen people debating the size of various ships in Stargate. Some argue about lengths based on scalings done from screen caps based on various episodes (however different episodes can lead to varying sizes depending which company did the CGI effects for that episode).
The other source of information is from the stargate wiki, which draws its information from the SG-1 and SGA collector’s magazines (however there is some debate as to the accuracy/canonicity of the information contained within these magazines).
However I thought it would be interesting (as I have way too much time on my hands) to compare the ship sizes from the magazine to the sizes from the Ship Scaling Sprites thread to see where the two agree/disagree and see if a general consensus can be reached regarding the size of various ships.

Just to make absolutely clear I am NOT saying the information on the wiki regarding ship sizes is 100% correct (I have to admit that the figures concerning the sizes of the X-302, the death glider, the Ori fighter and the wraith cruiser seem ridiculously large), I am NOT saying the ship scalings are incorrect. I am simply comparing two sources of information and inviting people to debate the information.
The other source of information is from the stargate wiki, which draws its information from the SG-1 and SGA collector’s magazines (however there is some debate as to the accuracy/canonicity of the information contained within these magazines).
