The term "Krumlov" needs to be translated into English, as simply defining the toponym in its own terms (ie. as "literally Czech Krumlov") is ridiculous.Le Anh-Huy 10:09, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

"Český" is used to differentiate between Moravský Krumlov. I have added a mention of this to the intro. Olessi 15:35, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
I added the Latin name Crumlaw used by monks and the Rosenberg family itself (in latin writtings). There are also references as Cromlaw in Flanders and England, but the Latin original is definitely Crumlaw as it was used by Witkonis/Witigonen/Rosenberg family. This is important for people interested in old latin archives of priories, monasteries and abbeys in Bohemia and abroad. --IEEE 15:50, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling of the town's name

Historically the name of the town is spelled Krummau (in German). Though occasionally one encounters spelling with one "m" (Krumau), and some claim it is more common, I believe it is not. At the very least Krummau, with two m's" deserves to be mentioned alongside with Krumau. There are a four other Krumaus (three placenames Krumau in Austria and one in Moravia)while there is only one Krummau. Roobit (talk) 09:45, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Baroque Theatre

I very recently took a tour of the castle's theatre, and learned that the theatre has performances three times a year, not one. Of these, two are open to the public. I have changed the text to reflect this. Bfoxen 08:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:UNESCO World Heritage Site - small logo.svg

Image:UNESCO World Heritage Site - small logo.svg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
