Talk:Schönbrunn Palace

message: *Support The reason why I'm proposing this, is that the German word Schloss gets translated in English as both "Castle" or "Palace". The problem is that "castle" in turn can be translated in German as Burg or Schloss, while "Palace" is clearly Palast or even Palais. So Schloss Schönbrunn gets translated as Schönbrunn Palace or Schönbrunn Castle, both count. In order to avoid this confusing and ambigious translation, I propose to rename in order to avoid error.

replies: text: Sorry but you are mistaken. There are references that refer to the place as "Schönbrunn Castle". The reasons why this is complicated I have given above. Gryffindor 17:04, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I'd suggest moving the sculptures into a separate article. They take away too much space in the Schönbrunn Palace article and are not that important in my opinion (I think most people don't even pay attention to them while visiting the parks in Schönbrunn). -Wutschwlllm 14:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree; the article displays poorly on my Firefox with the current sculpture arrangement. Olessi 02:30, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Well done. I'm in doubt whether those pics might even be illegal scans from some booklet (due to lack of contrast). But I could be wrong. Anyways, it would be easy to re-produce similar next summer (they're all "shielded" for wintertime, as of now). -- WeHaWoe (talk) 16:06, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move sculptures to separate article 

message: On 20080220, I removed from article "He showed interest in the newly founded zoo, the Tiergarten Schönbrunn, and tried to establish not only a systematic maintenance of wild animals, but also a garden of rare and exotic plants. He is justifiably called the creator of Schönbrunn's garden arrangement." which is wrong, but I'd like to note that, to some extent, there is a bit of truth in it: 
Maximilian did build up a menagerie, but he did this in his favoured :de:Schloss Neugebäude which he built at that same time at the opposite side of the city, now Simmering (Vienna). It seems unlikely that any of those animals could ever have been transferred to Schönbrunn, as the Neugebäude Palace was destroyed by the turcs in 1683, as was Schönbrunn. But I have no verifiable data on this. WeHaWoe (talk) 07:52, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
