Where is it defined? The suggested tag was "historic = yes". The word "historic" is an adjective defined here and is in use since about 1600. We have already discussed that historic=castle which is "a historic" with an attribute "castle" doesn't make sense. "historic" is not a substantive describing an object and, moreover, a castle is not always historic. The logical and natural ways is: building=castle historic=yes/no castle being the attribute (type) of building and historic the attribute of castle. That's something everybody can understand and even figure without looking at the wiki. 1200 was a sensible extension. André.
