Buruciye Medrese

• ... that the Buruciye Medrese in Sivas is considered as one of the best examples of the Seljuk architecture in Anatolia and is included in the tentative list of World Heritage Sites in Turkey by UNESCO? Source: "Buruciye Madrasah located in Sivas. This madrasah is one of the most important buildings of Anatolian Seljuks era." [1]

• Fine expansion, on good sources, Turkish sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. How about an image? - I find that the second half of the hook doesn't add much to interest us. IF mention UNESCO at all I'd say a short "nominated", instead of the tentative stuff which readers may not know. - Most important question: if the UNESCO calls it Madrasah, and the commons the same, and our article also: why not move? - I'd add a link to madrasah to the hook, and possibly the year. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:27, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

• @Gerda Arendt: Thank you for your review. Below, I add an ALT1 with image according to your concern. I don't think the word "Medrese" for "Madrasah" is a big issue. Please advise if it is. CeeGee 13:26, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

• ALT1 ... that the Buruciye Medrese (pictured) in Sivas is considered as one of the best examples of the Seljuk architecture in Anatolia? 13:26, 5 May 2020 (UTC)CeeGee

• Thank you for the image, - it's licensed, and a good illustration. We still don't have a link to medrese/madrasa in the hook. I didn't know the term, nor do I expect general readers to know it, or is it just me? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:03, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

• @Gerda Arendt: Sorry! I really don't understand what the reader might expect to explicitly know from the hook except that it is a building whatsoever. "Buruciye Medrese" is a proper name, and it is wikilinked. I see at en.Wikipedia that not all article names are translated into English. CeeGee 08:05, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

• If you really think that it's a good idea to present that building only as architecture, not also as a cultural institution, I
• approve it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:13, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you very much. CeeGee 08:50, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
