Okay, so the author linked to the Seattle Times for a published citation of their measurement. And indeed the author's measurements are confirmed by Signani in that very same article:

That looks to me like a legitimate Wikipedia source. Plus it's recent and doesn't seem to be disputed by any other recent article.

Is there a reason I'm missing on why this person isn't being allowed to update the elevation for Mt Rainier on Wikipedia?
