Medieval Town of Toruń
edit
- ... that the Medieval Town of Toruń, one of the World Heritage Sites in Poland, is recognized as an excellent example of a European medieval town?

New, long enough, within policy, QPQ good. Article was created on the 10th and should technically be listed under that day, but that may give it issues with the five-day limit, and it was expanded from a stub within the last two days, so whatever, good enough for me. The statements used for the hook should also have citations directly attached (3b)—I took care of it since the sourcing was straightforward. Image is good, though can you confirm that it's actually part of the medieval town (the description just says "Torun")? czar · · 01:13, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- Yep, it is part of the Medieval Town (as can be seen from Commons category structure). PS. We have few hundreds of images to chose from, perhaps someone will find one that looks even better as a thumb at commons:Category:Medieval centre of Toruń? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:36, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, the Church of the Holy Spirit doesn't appear to be within the Medieval Town hierarchy. The church is also tagged with 18th/19th c. (not medieval). I know they're very close via Google Maps, but I'd feel better if the connection was more obvious (or didn't require this much work).
Can you double-check?Comparing File:Torun Center - Stare Miasto, Nowe Miasto.svg and File:Torun Center - kosciol sw. Ducha.svg's overlap, it looks okay, though perhaps not the most representative image for European medieval town architecture (pretty, though). czar · · 03:04, 17 July 2013 (UTC)- Well then, how about File:Dzielnica staromiejska w Toruniu jpg.DSCN7234ps.jpg - "Medieval Town of Toruń, view from the tower of the Old Town City Hall"? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 18:31, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
