Review (criteria)	Comment I assume this is several centuries old, and so in public domain, but it would be helpful if the year (or even the century, assuming pre-19th century) were indicated. If more recent, we may also need to know the name and year of death of the architect. Thanks, cmadler (talk) 14:29, 10 January 2013 (UTC)  Comment The castle was constructed in different stages and for different purposes between the 10th and the 16th century. Where do you want me to add this information? Thanks! --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 15:44, 10 January 2013 (UTC) I'd suggest adding a short description, incorporating that information, at the top of Category:Château de Saumur. Thanks, cmadler (talk) 15:49, 10 January 2013 (UTC)  Info The castle's already been tagged as an "historical monument" in the category. More detailed information can be found in the pertaining wikipedia articles. Besides, I'm not really familiar with doing editing of this kind... ;-) Sorry. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 17:01, 10 January 2013 (UTC) I've made the edit. cmadler (talk) 17:20, 10 January 2013 (UTC) Thanks cmadler! --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 17:23, 10 January 2013 (UTC)  Support Best in scope. In addition to the chateau itself, this also helps to illustrate its historical value as a fortress on high ground overlooking the Loire. cmadler (talk) 17:47, 10 January 2013 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
