Note on name

[edit]

I've thought about several different names for the page and I'm not sure I'm satisfied with any of them, but settled on this as a safe choice. While "Madrasa of Qaytbay" and "Mosque of Qaytbay" would technically not conflict with any existing pages, there are multiple mosques and madrasas built by Qaytbay (e.g. Madrasa Al-Ashrafiyya and Funerary complex of Sultan Qaytbay) and this is probably one of the less well-known ones, so this seemed too imprecise. Every source cited on this page specifies "Qal'at al-Kabsh" alongside the name of the building in one way or another, so it seemed reasonable to follow their example here. Other suggestions are welcome, if needed. R Prazeres (talk) 04:34, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
