A consolidated list[edit]

I have created a consolidated list of castles and palaces in Denmark in order to try to get a handle on some problems I have seen in translating the word slot, and having that translation conform to Wikipedia articles on castle and palace. I have seen where articles get named and renamed back and forth from castle to palace and back to castle. I have seen properties appear both on the "List of castles" as "xxx Castle", and then on the "List of palaces" as "xxx Palace", where at least one is a red link, missing its way to an actual article.

In my opinion we needed a consolidated list, and now we have one. I used the list on da:Slotte as the basis for this list.

I used the list on Danish Palaces and Properties Agency's website for the major names translated into English. As for others not on their list, I did a Google search. Where I could quickly answer the question, "Is this a castle or a palace?" seen from the hits I received, or a "quick" drill down to a hit or two, then I translated. Where I could not get a quick answer I left the name in Danish as "xxx slot". --SFDan 09:40, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

From "List of castles" article[edit]

I removed the following list from article List of castles under the Denmark section because they are cleaning up the list, and because the main list should be here.

Eremitagen- Already listed in this article's list as Eremitage Palace Hunting Lodge
Fuglsang- Added to this article's list as a new entry
Københavns Castle- Already listed in this article's list as Copenhagen Castle
Lindenborg Castle- I did not add this to the list, as it appeared to be an estate (Gods) and not a castle or palace, and did not appear to have been either a royal residence or a royal fortress.

If there is any discussion on this, please bring it up here. Thanks. --SFDan 12:47, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to recall that there is a very clear technical difference between a "Slot" and a "Borg". I a slot have a one point in history been owend by the Crown. A borg has never. thats why it it is called Christiansborg Slot.Apupunchau 23:58, 11 February 2007 (UTC) I will try to make a stub for every red entry on the list. I will mainly use "Politikens bog om Danmarks Slotte og Herregårde" and danish homepages. Ok?Apupunchau 00:14, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds great. Best of luck with it. Nico-dk has uploaded a number of images of Danish manors, so I wonder if a palace or two isn't included somewhere. If you create stub articles, please tag the articles with {{Denmark-struct-stub}}. Please watch out for the English distinguishes between a "castle" and a "palace". It looks to me like the difference is if the building could be used for military purposes or not (en middelalderborg kontra et renæssanceslot).

I will do my best! Regarding the naming convention i have found something in a book by Niels Peter Stilling. Politikens bog om Slotte og Herregårde page 315: “ Slot: Betegnelsen for et bygningsværk opført af og ejet/beboet af kongehuset dertil knyttet fyrstelige personer. Begrebet er tydeligvis ikke beskyttet i Danmark og anvendes i flæng og ofte misvisende om større ejendomme med tårne og spir.” = A Slot must have been build by or lived in by royals, but the word is often used wrong.
