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.

In Castilla y León it is showing 9 castles and we have more than 300, hence the name Castilla...

[speedgoose]

We can see it as a curated collection of castles.

In France castles are all called Châteaux.

[ButlerianJihad]

What a coincidence! In France, all hats are called chapeaux!

[ChrisGreenHeur]

What is the point of the x at the end?

[margalabargala]

Makes things more difficult for foreigners. The French consider this a feature.

[Rexxar]

Telling that "eau" is just "o" for pronunciation confuse foreigners even more. Some of then even thinks you are mocking them.

Yet somehow French still manages to be altogether more coherent than English… or at least that’s the impression I’ve had so far.

[alfirous]

Does it also apply to independent "eau" word in fragrance or perfume, like "eau" de toilet?

[mamonoleechi]

it shows the plural,

un chapeau, des chapeaux -> one hat, hats

[speedgoose]

But you don’t pronounce it and in your example you know it’s plural without the x.

I would say it’s technical debt but rest assured that the language is alive and will eventually drop the x. Perhaps we will have a s instead of a x first.

It does change sound sometimes based on the following word.

Who downvotes this..?

Thanks for the feedback. I will try my best to fix the dataset.
