replies: text: I agree, the map is terrible, impossible to read, and only shows cities, not provinces. We don't need massive detail, just an area map that shows one or two cities. See Kosovo_Province, Ottoman Empire for a decent example. A sequence of vali or governors would be nice too, so people studying this history can tell what the heck is going on. Why do these provinces given in the table above have a different name (beylerbeylik) than "vilayet"? None of the articles on this subject are very coherent with each other. 216.231.46.147 01:20, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I created :Category:History of the Ottoman Empire by country and I think all by country articles should be moved, History of Ottoman Kosovo->Ottoman Kosovo, Cyprus under the Ottoman Empire->Ottoman Cyprus. GRprefectures-have-been-dissolved (talk) 12:01, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure why you created this Category. It seems to me history of various modern states during their Ottoman periods would conventionally be described in their history sections/articles. No such categories exist for the Category:History of the British Empire by country or Category:History of the Russian Empire by country Koakhtzvigad 14:26, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

text: It seems to me that the title Cyprus under the Ottoman Empire is also not very appropriate. After all, it wasn't under anything, but was a part of the Ottoman Empire. Perhaps consider renaming to Cyprus as a province of the Ottoman Empire? Koakhtzvigad (talk) 14:31, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: There were several articles like Ottoman Greece these are now collected in the new category. I wanted to have them in one category. For Cyprus: Exactly, see my proposal. GRprefectures-have-been-dissolved (talk) 16:03, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

message: The link to "Lazistan" in the article under Eyalets that disappeard before 1609 is dead because it does not link to Lazistan but to *Lazistan
However an article "Lazistan" exists that seems to describe what is meant here and is certainly better than linking to a dead end.
I tried to link Lazistan to Lazistan - but that was undone:
Takabeg (talk | contribs) (16,060 bytes) (Undid revision 440105379 by ConjurerDragon (talk) this was a province.) (undo) 
Why? ConjurerDragon (talk) 06:06, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, this is "abnormal" edit. Do I have to explain this abnormality ? And if the article Lazistan explains Lazistan as a geographical area, the article "District of Lazistan" (Sanjak of Lazistan, Liva of Lazistan) that explains "Lazistan" as a administrative units. But if, we want to explain "Lazistan" as a administrative units, we have to change title (Sanjak of Lazistan, like German Wikipedia Sandschak Lazistan and contents (like Sanjak of Niš, Sanjak of Smederevo, Sanjak of Novi Pazar etc.). As long as I understand, there is disambiguation in the article Lazistan, which is one of the sourceless articles. Takabeg (talk) 06:59, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
