"First floor" .. also give american?
I presume that the term "first floor" in the article is the European usage, which would be "second floor" in the USA. Is there a WP style recommendation on how to help USA readers understand the meaning? --Noleander (talk) 13:49, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

History of house
The article correctly states that the west wing of Castle Howard was designed by Thomas Robinson, the 3rd Earl of Carlisle's son in law. But the link is to the wrong Thomas Robinson. It should be to Sir Thomas Robinson, 1st Baronet 1702/3-1777, not Thomas Robinson, 1st Baron Grantham 1695-1770. Their two ODNB entries clearly distinguish them. Someone please correct this. lutyensfan Lutyensfan (talk) 07:57, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
