Hi Matodemi
I've been given your fine entry on Schloss Benrath to sub-edit, and you can see the result here: A41145059
Please let me know if you're happy with it, and then I will return it to the Editors.
As you'll see, I've made some changes to make the English flow more easily - I know it's not your native language - but I haven't changed anything substantially. I've chosen to put 'Schloss Benrath' in the title (as that's what it's called) but I've referred to it as Benrath Palace throughout the text, as it's really a palace rather than a castle.
One final thing - please remember to subscribe to this version of your entry. Then, when it goes on the Front Page, you will see any conversations that people start there.

Hallo Icy,
great piece of editing you did there - thank you very much.
I do have some remarks though:
1. quote: Schloss Benrath (Benrath Palace) is situated within its own parkland to the south of Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.unquote
it is actually situated in the south of Düsseldorf, because Benrath is part of Düsseldorf
2. quote: There were also ponds; the small River Itter flows through the grounds.unquote
there are ponds (because they are still there....)
As for the rest, I am really grateful for your work - thank you again.

Thank you. It's a lovely entry - it really makes me want to visit one day. I'm a member of the British National Trust, and we often visit the stately homes here.
I've fixed those points and returned it to the Editors now. There's a very short queue, so I would guess you should see on the Front Page within the next week or so. The Editors also send you an e-mail when it gets published.

I'll invite you to a virtual then, this is my first entry for the guide.
And when you really come to Düsseldorf and Benrath, I'll invite you for some real Düsseldorfer
