Talk:List of Brick Gothic buildings

message: The list is messy in that includes a number of long-demolished and recently reconstructed buildings, whose original appearance has not been recorded (Trakai Island Castle, Turaida Castle), while omitting some well-preserved buildings who dominated the history of the region for centuries (e.g., Vyborg Castle). A note should be made on which buildings are original and which are rather fanciful reconstructions of today. 
The page also should be purged of exaggerated claims along the lines of Trakai Castle being the only "island castle in Europe" (what's about Kuressaare Castle or Shlisselburg, among others?) --Ghirla-трёп- 09:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds sensible. Be bold and do it. It would indeed be useful to at least indicate which buildings have undergone major recent renovations or reconstructions, although to some extent, probably all buildings on the list have done so at some point. As regards Vyborg, isn't that mostly a fieldstone building? In that case, it woiuld not belong into a Brick Gothic list.athinaios | Talk 10:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  What a mess 

message: I notice that nearly every place in Poland has appended to it a note giving a region of Prussia, along with a German name for the place and everything associated with it.  Even Kraków, in no way, shape or form any region of Prussia, has its German name, Krakau, appended.  Why?  The city is unarguably Polish; the Polish name for the city is Kraków; this is an encyclopedia in the English language, and the English name for the city is Cracow.  140.147.236.194 (talk) 15:45, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. That was probably my mistake, made when I translated the original version of this list article. I think it is relevant to have the German names of places and buildings in those cases were such names were actually in use there, including when the monuments in question were built, but indeed there is no need to refer to names such as "Krakau". Originally, I had simply included the German versions of placenames in former parts of Prussia, but since someone else added Prussian regions incorrectly and inconsistently, I thought it better to at least correct those. Let me know if there are more objections. athinaios | Talk 00:15, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

text: Buildings are listed according to the state they are currently in, i.e. what's in modern Poland is listed as such. In those cases, both Polish and German placenames are given. athinaios | Talk 10:19, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

text: The three buildings listed for Hamburg (St. Petri, St. Katharinen and St. Jakobi) are all indeed in hamburg, not in Lübeck. athinaios | Talk 10:19, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Polish section seems to reflect an agenda 

message: After Athinaios's departure, the page has been steadily eroded, primarily by BurgererSF, who has inserted every second Polish church in the list, even the Wawel Castle. This makes the page worthless and unusable. I suggest we revert the list to this version. --Ghirla-трёп- 18:41, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Now we have even a bunch of Ukrainian/Ruthenian Renaissance towers in an article about the Baltic Gothic style! One goes to this page in a state of constant wonder. --Ghirla-трёп- 20:10, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  What a mess 2 

message: It is a nice list, but it is not complete, not even concerning public buildings.--Ulamm (talk) 23:18, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not meant to be complete, it says so in the text immediately preceding the tables. Not even all of the structures currently included are significant ones, and some are only partly built in brick. For instance (as much as I am flattered to see a link to an article that I contributed to), the donjon of Mildenstein Castle is probably only an example of minor importance. --Schlosser67 (talk) 07:06, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

message: *In general, broadside photos are the best media for the illustrating file of such a long list.
*And small shapes give the reader an impression, but avoid an inflation of bites.
*For some buildings, especally for towers and for citizens' gable houses, only upright photos are available. If they are presented in the same width as broadside images, the give these buildings more weight in the list, though htes aren't more important than those buildings represented by broadside photos. Therefore the quality of the whole list affords to present them in a smaller width.--Ulamm (talk) 08:26, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
