Rename Otzberg Castle to Otzberg Fortress
[edit]Veste Otzberg is not a castle (it was never the home of a noble family) but a fortress, it was constructed and used to protect the surrounding area, see also the article, especially section description. Therefore this article should be renamed. http://www.martin-stricker.de/ (talk) 18:22, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
- I agree that on grounds of use and accurate translation, "fortress" makes sense. But we are supposed to give weight to the WP:COMMONNAME in English sources. Mine use "castle" and I can find none that uses "fortress." Are you able to show otherwise? --Bermicourt (talk) 18:30, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
