Talk:Beverley Minster

Tim Brown?
There is no such "notable chorister" Tim Brown. That is self-promotion on his part, probably. There are far more deserving people who are not mentioned, like the choir master Alan Spedding.

Architecture Type
Following comment by User:130.88.48.18 moved from article page -

it is early english to decorated to perpendicular architecture not 'gothic to perpendicular' gothic is a bit of an umbrella term.

When the article grows we can add this
-- SECisek 07:56, 13 November 2007 (UTC) just a suggestion for more info. The organists are listed but not the vicars - surely of greater interest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tony Hirschfeld (talk • contribs) 14:02, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Architectural history could be revised and expanded.
I remember first reading this article, at a point when I knew very little about Beverley Minster. I wanted to find out about the architectural history of the building, but left very confused and had to find information and photos elsewhere. Had any substantial portions of an assumed Norman building survived? (No.) But for the picture of the superb 14th century Decorated nave, which is completely unmentioned, one would not know of its existence. I like the details such as the writ by William the Conqueror, and the Sherwood oaks granted by Henry III; and there seems to be strong coverage of the improvements and restoration of the 16th through 19th centuries. But the period in which the building was constructed remains nebulous, confusing, and flawed in this article.

This is one of the great Gothic churches of England, an absolutely outstanding building in its architecture and in its scale. It deserves more than this. I don't feel as if I know enough to undertake these revisions and expansions, but surely there's someone who can? 65.255.71.187 (talk) 21:03, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

Update: Armed with Pevsner, I have now greatly expanded the History section. Please feel free to review, suggest changes, edit. I would appreciate it. 65.255.73.147 (talk) 01:23, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but that's a messy way to do citations - do you mind if I change it? Johnbod (talk) 01:53, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Please do. I'm new here and wasn't sure on the correct method for citations of that sort. I'll continue to watch this article for your changes so I'll know the right method from now on. Thanks.Brandt Nightingale (talk) 21:10, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
 * To clear up a point of possible confusion: I am the user who made the previous comments here and expanded the article. I just didn't have a Wikipedia account or username at that point. I apologize for any confusion caused.Brandt Nightingale (talk) 04:11, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
