A fact from List of Brick Gothic buildings appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 9 January 2008.

[edit] "Important" Brick Gothic buildings?

I'm not sure "important" is a good word here, esp. as the title. Perhaps "historically significant"? Or "Brick Gothic landmarks" still standing/in existence? --PFHLai (talk) 16:56, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

I see your point. What about simply "List of significant Brick Gothic buildings"?

By way of explanation: I'd avoid "historically significant", as the significance of the structures discussed is in the fields of art history or architectural history, not so much in plain history. Similarly, I'd avoid the "still in existence", since at leat one listed object is not. I do think we should move to "significant", though.

The German page from which this is translated is called "Hauptwerke der Backsteingotik", literally "Main works of Brick Gothic", so "List of the most significant Brick Gothic buildings" may be a resonable title?

How about simply "List of Brick Gothic buildings"? I'm not familiar with the subject matter, but I suppose the prose above the list can explain the 'inclusion criteria', how 'important' or 'significant' the buildings are to get on the list. I think you have written this in there already. --PFHLai (talk) 19:44, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

That makes sense. I'll move it now. athinaios | Talk 20:07, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
