The founder edit

Polish source informs that Father Henryk of Skarlin was the founder.[2] That's more than the rough translation from Latin mentioning brother Henry of Skarlin as constructor.[4] So, keep the references in, and try to use online material if you can. -- Polish29 (talk) 14:59, 31 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

I did not remove info, I moved it to the appropriate place. The construction began in 1301, the Latin inscription mentions the construction of the Gate (Porta) by Henry of Skarlin in 1386, he was obviously not the "founder" of the castle 85 years before. (See WP:hoax). Also "frater" means "brother", not "father" and finally, there's no need to Polonize his name. HerkusMonte (talk) 15:49, 31 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
