Cathedrals[edit]

Hi Skyduster! Thanks for your contribution.

Two things:

Make sure that you give a reason (or a direct to the talk page) when you make a change. Your deletion nearly got reverse because I couldn't locate a reason and it looked like vandalism.
When you add to a "talk" page, leave your message at the bottom, not the top.

If you know anything about architectural history, it would be good if someone could write Cathedral architecture of Eastern Europe to complement Cathedral architecture of Western Europe. Everybody seems to be waiting for me to do it, (and sometimes abusing me because I don't) but I'm located in Australia. Amandajm (talk) 09:14, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cathedrals of Eastern Europe[edit]

The difficulty with simply extending the article to include Eastern Europe is two-fold.

The article is written from a very particular direction. It makes stylistic generalisations that are regional and cut across stylistic periods. I could write it like that for England, France, Spain, Italy and Germany because I know enough about the architecture of those countries to generalise in that way, backed up by Banister Fletcher, whose approach I used in making the summaries. I couldn't possible use the same approach for Eastern Eropean cathedrals.
The article is already very long. Once an article goes over a certain length, then editors are automatically advise to split it up.
