Cathedral image[edit]

To anyone interested in maintenance of this page, please see the talk page of the cathedral picture; it may need to be replaced for copyright reasons, and a couple of possible alternatives are listed there. Or, if you can verify that there is license to use the image, please tag it. -- Kbh3rd 04:11, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Contradictory dates[edit]

"inaugurated in 1435 ... It was completed within the following decades," and "When rebuilt, the Renaissance style of 1619 was modernised." Has some previous mention of building work in 1619 been deleted? The date seems to have come out of the blue. Incidentally, might a link to brick gothic be good? 213.122.48.176 (talk) 11:48, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Don't get it delisted! Thanks, --Jionpedia ✉ 15:05, 18 October 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks Jion, Ipigott deserves most of the credit though..♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:32, 19 October 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

IB[edit]

There has been a little to-ing and fro-ing on the thorny question of the infobox recently, with a number of IP's adding and pthers reverting. Rather than the continual slow-burn edit warring on this, could we please come to a consensus on whether there should be one included or not? In the interim, I have retirned the article to the status quo before the reverting cycle started. - SchroCat (talk) 13:01, 6 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Info-boxes can be useful, but the one that was in situ was absurdly over-full, and no help to a visiting reader. I don't think a box is needed or desirable for this article. Tim riley (talk) 13:06, 6 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks, Ipigott and I decided it looked better without one. The length was ridiculous. At least it did contain info though. If it could be shrunken down with clickable sections it would be a lot more appropriate and I'd probably accept it. It was way too long to be acceptable to me though as it was.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:19, 6 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I agree that the infobox for this article was not helpful or useful in this article. -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:12, 8 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It was very long, but I think it added structure to the article. Rather than removing it, why not shorten it down? Virtually all articles on cathedrals have infoboxes, so we would definitely be in the minority if we ruled it to only be in the way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2002:D572:DD80:0:0:0:D572:DD80 (talk) 01:51, 29 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I agree, restore the infobox and shorten it down if needed. J 1982 (talk) 16:22, 18 December 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
