I'll review this over the next few days. Jamesx12345 20:40, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm making a few (mainly minor) changes to some aspects of the style. Jamesx12345 22:34, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A few points:

  • another sentence to the introduction would be nice.
  • "blue or Cullen millstones" - it's not entirely clear what these are.
  • are there any English sources anywhere? Even one would be nice for non-Dutch speakers.

A nice article overall, especially considering the available source material. Jamesx12345 23:30, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jamesx12345, thanks for taking the time to go over the article. I have added a sentence to the intro. Cullen Millstones are a type of Millstone that in the Dutch reference is called blue Millstone. That is why I put in two names. I have removed the blue part for clarity. Unfortunately I do not know of any English publications about this mill. Let me know if there is anything else. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 15:27, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I added a bit about the origin of Cullen stone - it sounds very like a Scottish place name, but is from volcanic rock around Cologne. This is an excellent article, and despite its comparatively short length it covers well the subject. Jamesx12345 16:05, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
