External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Lancet window. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20060905183913/http://freenet.buffalo.edu/bah/a/DCTNRY/l/lancet.html to http://freenet.buffalo.edu/bah/a/DCTNRY/l/lancet.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Definition

The definition in the first sentence appears to be incorrect. It does not match the quoted Britannica (in the second sentence) and any solid source that I know. It does not even match the source, that actually shows a real lancet window (with a better description, "A narrow window with a sharp pointed arch", and a sharp-pointed arch). The illustrations in our article appear to show equilateral arches and worse, with just a few lancet ones, see Pointed arch#Forms for diagrams. Викидим (talk) 03:05, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Modified the definition, removed wrong (or confusing) pictures. Викидим (talk) 03:17, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
