  • If you submit some map, at least don't have the title contradict the content description:

    "the 2,435 most significant landmarks worldwide, ordered by a fame ranking that blends Wikipedia coverage with real readership."

    or someone fix the title here please to what on the app right now:

    "Map of the world's great castles & fortresses" whatever that means.

    Germany's Saxony alone has 700+ fortications with about 100 being touristically interesting. In the map I count like 9.

  • This is off by many degrees of magnitude for Ireland at least: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1nkvqd7/oc...

  • Cool idea, horrible dataset. Its limited to things in Wikidata rather than using OSM, and it must have an article on Wikipedia in English to count so I am sure it is missing just based on that. And somehow it misses many castles (and other categories it includes) which do meet those requirements.

    There is no definition of what they use to categorize anything either. And it clearly isn't applied consistently. There is a Château category and yet many things with Château in their name are tagged as castles.

  • Nice project :3

    There's a MASSIVE amount of castles missing

    Just for France, the castle visible on the map -> this is not even 5%

    Depending on the count it goes from 20000 castles to 45000 (just for France!)

  • My first dotcom began by listing German castles for sale after the wall fell. https://web.archive.org/web/19970102101502/http://www.re.com...

  • This is missing castles. There are several in and near lerici Italy not listed

  • Clearly vibe-coded. Cool idea though. I can see what was leveraged from the Wikipedia data set.

    Side question: why does Claude prefer dark backgrounds with low-contrast text?

  • That's less than I expected for worldwide

    Apparently Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, etc... were not really into castles, while Japan was?

  • I had to look up Madagascar's castle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rova_of_Antananarivo

    The Rova of Antananarivo /ˈruːvə/ (Malagasy: Rovan'i Manjakamiadana [ˈruvᵊn manˌdzakəmiˈadə̥nᵊ]) is a royal palace complex (rova) in Madagascar that was the home of the sovereigns of the Kingdom of Imerina in the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as of the rulers of the Kingdom of Madagascar in the 19th century. Located in the central highland city of Antananarivo, the Rova occupies the highest point on Analamanga, formerly the highest of Antananarivo's many hills.
