editHm. This isn't very NPOV and looks like someone's term paper. Basic formatting would also be nice. --mav
- factual elements of it can probably be incorporated into a history of the Ottoman Empire. But each sultan should have his own, so Regime of Selim III and Regime of Mahmoud II could be separate articles, etc. This might be better to keep separate from their biographies as persons.
- we should probably support and help people who dump academic papers here, as opposed to just removing their work - they are clearly willing to write in a standard form. However the paper has to be pretty good to start with... a PhD thesis' background material or something that we know didn't come from a guy who got an 'F'.
I replace Russo-Ottoman Wars with Russo-Turkish Wars, the correct article.--Kross | Talk 15:50, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
1826
editIt was NOT Alemdar Pasa who anhiliated the unruly Jannissary corps in 1826. Yes, it was him who first tried it 18 years ago and paid with his life heroically, but it was still the same Sultan, Mahmut II (this is the correct spelling) who bid his time and prepared for years and then had this mob destroyed once and for all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.77.156.90 (talk) 23:38, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
Contemporary reforms in Meiji Japan
editSorry, but by no stretch of the imagination is 1789 "contemporary" with 1868.... 86.183.196.28 (talk) 18:43, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
