Recent revisions
As I've done at several other Ottoman mosque articles, I've made some overall revisions and expansion. Feel free to provide feedback or ask about anything that looks off.

In sum: I've removed some unsourced statements, revised some with citations, and tagged others. I've dissolved the massive gallery at the end in favour of smaller section-specific galleries more relevant to the text (see WP:GALLERY and MOS:IMAGES). Other than that, I've mostly expanded the architecture section and reorganized a little: the old "Exterior" vs "Interior" division was too awkward when it come to discussing the domed prayer hall's structure, which requires reference to both the interior and exterior (as is done in most cited references).

There are still plenty of details that could be elaborated. Several of the main references cited include more details about the mosque's construction (like logistics and expenses), its materials, and further information about the other buildings of the complex.
