Schulze Organ
It seems to me that the majority of this page is about the organ and the manufacturers (and very comprehensive about them). As such it would better suit the encylopedia to have a separate page about the organ, and (if possible) pages about the Schulze family. Then the page about the minster could be developed in other ways. Chemical Engineer (talk) 00:04, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I think it is a good idea to have a separate Schulze page. I am the author of the section on the Schulze Organ, but did not know how to split it down.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.100.149.119 (talk) 20:54, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I'd say there should be an article about the family firm - Grove has the one article under "Schulze", perhaps it should be Schulze family - with a link from the Schulze dab page and perhaps redirects from the names of the members of the family. Then move into it the matter from this article which is about the firm in general, and leave behind the matter specific to the Doncaster organ, which is appropriate within this article as long as there are redirects from terms like Doncaster Schulze (OK, I've just created that one).  With lots of links and redirects wherever potentially useful, of course! PamD (talk) 17:34, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I quite agree. As is, the article is "the tail wagging the dog". The article about the church itself should include a brief on the organ, of course, but as it is, the section on Schulze is a fine and worthy article in itself.Melos Antropon (talk) 04:30, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

12th Century Norman?
There's a bit of a problem here with the description of the old church. 12th Century would be Early English Gothic, not Norman. There was likely both Norman and 12th Century work in the old curch, but like many mediaeval churches it was reworked over the centuries, and was famous for its Perp crossing tower which style Scott retained for the tower of the new church (Pevsner). That fits with an illustration in a paper by Jackson that is cited in the article, but only for a list of the vicars, not for its description of the old church. I'll work on a section with more detail on the old church, which was definitely notable! Kognos (talk) 21:20, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
