Role of Gilles

edit

in the intro it says "It is a common misconception that he [Raymon De Saint-Gilles] was responsible for its construction when in 1103 he laid siege to the city." But in the next section, History, it says "The citadel of Tripoli was built by Raymon De Saint-Gilles, governor of Tripoli, in 1103 on the emplacement of the castle of Saint-Gilles."

There seems to be a disconnect somewhere. Can an original contributor clear this up?
