Ah, I only just noticed this topic that is very dear to me.  Praise to DVas for the website and the effort put in! As you yourself mentioned, there is a problem because there is no definition of what a peak is. If you tell me that, I will tell you how many peaks there are. Above all, the definition should be unambiguous, that is, completely clear, verifiable and not arbitrary. By far the most commonly used criterion is prominence (height above the saddle). Which value is the right one is a matter of agreement (or personal judgment), but if we take as a criterion a prominence of at least 30 m (probably the minimum) we have 301 two-thousanders in Slovenia (28 in the Karavanks, 37 in KSA, 236 in the Julian Alps). Of course, you can also set a different criterion. I would also kindly warn you about the input data regarding height. I believe you started from what is publicly available, but there are many errors on public maps (especially on OpenTopo) and they are often quite significant. Sometimes it's simply a measurement error (e.g. Veliki Oltar, which is listed everywhere as 2621 m, but is actually 2628.45 m), sometimes the highest point was not measured, often there are also points that by no criterion are peaks or are not two-thousanders (typically Toplar with 1998.85 m). Some also do not have a peak in Slovenia (e.g. Velika glava on Peca), or the peak is only a meter outside the border (e.g. Ostrv 2103 m, next to Košutnikov turn or Grad 2016 (and not 2008, as on the maps, next to Vrtača) - I counted them anyway). There are of course also two-thousanders that exist in nature but are not on maps and consequently not on lists - e.g. Point 2040 with prominence 35 m, south of Kalški greben. If you want completely accurate data, you will have to use Lidar data. These are publicly available through the GURS portal, but you will need some GIS program and a bit of knowledge to use it. Lidar has a standard error of +- 15 cm and is the best we have at the moment (or that even exists). And no, I don't have a list made. For years I've been saying that I'll do it one day, but I don't get around to it. But so that it doesn't remain just words, below is a graphical representation of the mentioned 301 points (criterion - above 2000 m, above 30 m prominence, in Slovenia + a few m tolerance ).
