Incorrect links due to places with the same name

Going through the list, I found several inconsistencies. I tried putting all castellanies on a map, put wasn't able to place them all.

- Żary is linked to a place in Lebus, which did not belong to Poland at the time; it should be one the other Żarys

- Dobrzyń is linked to the Brześć-Kujawski V., I think it should be Dobrzyń Land or Dobrzyń nad Wisłą

- Krzywina is in Silesia, again not Polish at the time; I think it is meant to be Krzywiń in Greater Poland

- Biechów is linked to Kalisz V., but none of the Biechóws are in Greater Poland; there is however a Biechowo

- Kowal may be correct, but in the source provided all place-names are given in their adjectival form; I thus think that it may also refer to Kowalewo Pomorskie

- Gostyniec is in Pomerania, so not Polish at the time; there are places with similar names though: the article Gostynin explicitly says that it was the seat of a castellan; on the other hand the source only talks about the castellan of Goślice and Gostynin (!) is mentioned as a powiat

- Ciechanowice is also in Pomerania, but there is a Ciechanów in Masovia; the wiki article again mentions a castellan Albrecht J. (talk) 15:13, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
