[edit] Article quality

This page needs some seriously editing. It almost looks plagiarized also. D'Agosta 03:59, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

The content there has largely been taken from "History of Ottoman Turks" (1878), and it notes in the references. There is no plagiarism, but it is crazy as hell to try to read. I had never heard of the guy before coming here, so theres only so much I can do... Sam Spade 22:47, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

I performed a copy editing and removed the copy edit template to take it off the list. I will list it for proofreading; if anyone thinks it could use further copy editing, please reinsert the tag.--Zdilli 23:25, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Aimée Dubuc de Rivery

I do not think that she was his mother(She was only nine years old in 1785.)--Anglius 03:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I read that she was his guardian.--Anglius 05:28, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I did a little re-org'ing and linking, but it really needs fine work by someone who knows the guy. The signature graphic is wonderful rewinn 20:32, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Serbia

This guy lost Serbia for Turkey. There's no mention of it in the text.
