The article is lacking a section on the history of the town. Given that Sélestat was a major centre of late-Middle Age/early Renaissance Humanism, this is particularly regrettable. RCS (talk) 10:33, 20 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! I will try and find the necessary sources. The main author of the article is 82.21.170.227 (talk · contribs), I don't think he/she is still with us. Give me a week or two and I'll take care of the issues. --Edelseider (talk) 07:02, 7 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Sainsf, hello again, I think I'm through with revising and correcting the article according to your suggestions: diff link. Cheers, Edelseider (talk) 19:46, 8 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for all those and the additional fixes. I am happy we can promote this now. This must be one of the most beautiful GAs I have seen so far. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 06:13, 9 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your vigilant eye! It was fun transcribing all the names the town once had: Scalistati, Slectistat, Sclezistat, Slezestat etc.--Edelseider (talk) 06:29, 9 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
