To me, this doesn't seem a good name for an article -- particularly since there's no link to it from Stirling Castle. Could we maybe give it some more thought?

  • Yes, I created the title because it was a bullet point in Wars of Scottish Independence. I would propose "Seige of Stirling Castle" Gmh04 09:29, 13 Nov 2003 (UTC)
  • I added the "Battlebox from the prior link. However, that highlights the fact that the page needs fitted into a timeline. Does it need listed repeated times in the battlebox history with # links? Does it need to be a disambiguation page? As it stands this needs fleshed out a bit. Brianmc 20:13, 11 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The date in the info-box can not be correct, or it is in conflict with the main text. --85.165.101.121 21:24, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

also, the box is about one siege, but obviously there were several, as implied by the box title "sieges"...dave souza 23:54, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I've sought to address the above concerns by separating out the detail on the 1304 siege into a separate section, and the infobox with it. The remainder then becomes a lead section, and further detail on the other sieges can be added into new sections in future. Hope this arrangement suits. Can't beleive its taken 3 years for someone to think of this though..! Jonathan Oldenbuck (talk) 12:23, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article Name

[edit]

The name says “Sieges of Stirling Castle”, though only really gives detail on one of the sieges, with another of the sieges having its own article. I think it would be easier and better to simply change the name of this article to Siege of Stirling Castle (1304) and make this article about that specific siege. If anyone wants then they can create other articles for the other sieges SamMcDermott (talk) 18:52, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
