[edit]I'll pick up this review, per a request on my talk page. I should be able to get to it in the next couple of days. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 11:27, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- Not a requirement for GA, but it would be good to include an image of the palace ruins after World War II. I would think a fair use claim would work.
- We have "Zick and Balthasar Neumann, the main designer of the corp de logis", but later "The main part of the building was designed by Baron Anselm von Grünstein": aren't these in conflict? You do say Balthasar took over as Chief Engineer and constructed the staircase, but that's not the same as saying he took over as designer.
It was created to resolve an architectural conundrum created by von Schönborn's late decision to add a mezzanine floor to the corp de logis
: two uses of "created" in close succession; can we rephrase?
That's all I can find; the article is in excellent shape. The sources look OK, though I see many of them are tourist guides rather than specialist publications: in case you are considering taking this to FAC, I would suggest looking at the German version of the article, which lists several sources that appear to cover the palace complex in detail in the "Literatur" section.

- Prioryman: Just realized I had not pinged you. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 10:52, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
- Prioryman:I'll leave this another week, and will have to fail this if there's no response. I could fix the "created" point myself, but I think the question about Balthasar will require access to the source. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 12:09, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
- Mike Christie, unfortunately Prioryman's most recent Wikipedia edit was on March 27, so after so long an absence I rather doubt he's going to be replying to this review, especially since he was pinged on his talk page over two weeks ago. I think you're going to have to fail this. I apologize for not having checked his activity level before I asked you to take over the review. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:27, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
- I agree. Failing for lack of response to the issues raised. Prioryman, if you return and fix these points and renominate, I'll be glad to give it a quick review. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:15, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
