Talk:Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque

NPOV
This article uses "we" quite a lot, and uses "unfortunately" once. I'll mark it with. --The Gr e at Llama (now on editor review!) 14:14, 29 October 2006 (UTC)


 * This article could do with some work - I'll have a look in the next few days - would anyone like to comment on what sort of gothic were looking at? --Mcginnly | Natter 13:59, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm going to plump for French Flamboyant. --Mcginnly | Natter 14:00, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Should we rename the article to Lala Moustapha Pasha Mosque and then redirect from St Nicholas Cathedral Of Cyprus and include the cathedral name in the first sentence of the lead? It makes sense to name the article as the current name of the building and then refer to it's previous nomenclature --Mcginnly | Natter 14:19, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Renaming
yes i see but i dont know why i prefer and i think it is fair to leave the article in the original state name but really i dont know what are the standard of wikipedia if you have somewhere to read about this issue to make sure of that and then to work more on the standards ,i just wanted to share the facts of the article cause i am visiting personally these places and asking people and search in old books about them please ur advise will be very appreciate it from you i am very happy to discuss these changes

It's had three names in its history - I still think it makes sense to move it to it's current name and create redirects from the other names. --Mcginnly | Natter 01:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

An absolute tragedy to see such a beautiful Gothic Church with such an ugly name. Wikipedians--you have disappointed. 94.8.76.2 (talk) 16:56, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

category
i think we have also to add Cyprus republic in the categories for a reason this article is also belonging to the Cypriot culture ,i don't know also, i know this is a part of Famagusta but as u can see and as i know the EU did not yet specify the official existence of the Cypriot Turkish republic please advise i am little confused here.

Dating confusion
This site claims the date of construction as 1298-1312 - assuming they mean 1412 - this cast some doubt perhaps on the dating of the cathedral - can we find a more reliable source?
 * i think this link is the most accurate date http://www.stnicholascenter.org/Brix?pageID=408

 * Unless I'm missing something that site only gives the consecration date by clicking on the link on this page, but not the construction period. --Mcginnly | Natter 10:44, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

The towers and roof
It's such a pity that the roofs and the top parts of the towers have been destroyed. If only the European building heritage would place cathedral roofs on the mosque. It just looks strange without the roofings. --203.15.122.35 23:26, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Interesting though...
Well, couldn't this building be the only Gothic mosque in the world? Seems likely. If so, I suggest we mention this distinction in the article. Steinbach (fka Caesarion) 14:55, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, forget about it. There are some more, all of them on Cyprus, as far as I could find. Steinbach (fka Caesarion) 11:19, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Yep there are many where Christian lands were violated by Islam. There aren't Gothic mosques, they are vandalised Gothic Churches. 90.218.255.59 (talk) 16:33, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

The building and its features
There is quite a lot to be said about the many features of this interesting building which visitors should not miss. I'll try and add things from time to time. As an aside: I'm not sure about Lala Mustafa Pasha: his unpleasant behaviour could go under the history of Famagusta rather than here. It seems to have little to do with the building itself.--Shirazibustan (talk) 10:42, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
