Altenhus Fortress

Christian IV of Denmark-Norway

  • ALT1:... that Altenhus Fortress in the far north of Norway, was built in part using timber from a demolished church, and was eventually demolished to provide material to build a church?
  • Reviewed: Calayan, Cagayan

Created/expanded by Manxruler (talk). Self nominated at 18:50, 17 May 2014 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg QPQ in the form of extensive commentary on an article that was eventually withdrawn. Article is new and long enough, properly inline cited to online sources (some only accessible for Norwegian IPs). No copyvio/close paraphrasing issues detected. As for the hook, I find the orgininal one to be more interesting but it doesn't totally correspond to a sentence in the article and I can't find a sourced sentence that outright says the fortress was built to secure taxation of Samis (allthough it's clear from the backround paragraph). Maybe include this in the lead and inline source it there. As for language, I am not sure if the comma should be there (?) and I would prefer to simply say "Northern Norway" instead of "far north of Norway" since the sentence is a bit cumbersome. Photo out of copyright; personally I prefer mainpage pics that is a depiction of the direct subject of the article. Regards, Iselilja (talk) 15:50, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
