User talk:NewtyW/List of mansions

I have been gradually working on this list. I probably won't attempt to make the list global in scope due to the poor quality and difficulty of gathering international data sources. I also probably won't move away from a strict square footage cutoff (though that cutoff might be moved up as the list expands), because I'd like to keep inclusion criteria as straightforward and objective as possible. These properties should be large enough as to be notable for their size alone. Links to notable residents are incomplete, but are only being added where I have a reasonable source for the connection of owner-to-property and where the owner is already deemed notable by having a wiki page. Zillow is so far invaluable to the list. The sites price forecasting models, depending on the market, are really inaccurate, but Zillow's sources for property size are generally pretty good (a big database of public records). Also, the aerial views are a nice perk. NewtyW 12:21 29 March 2009 (UTC)
