Gosh, this article needs some considerable improvements to retain its FA status. It is very badly referenced: there are absolutely no footnotes (for an article of that size I would say it needs at least 50, if not more) and only three main references (all in Bosnian... something in English would be nice). Also, the article is packed with red links, which means there is little context provided. Many of the images are quite irrelevant and contribute little to the article (views of Sarajevo and Istanbul?), and there are some formatting and sectioning issues (e.g. no use of cite templates, some undesired short lists within the prose, "Biography" is quite unnecessary as a heading &mdash; subsections should be sections). Finally, a more concise lead section would be appreciated, perhaps two and not three paragraphs of that size. Todor→Bozhinov 21:37, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Remove &mdash; no work done since nomination. Heck, the article has fewer than 50 edits in the last year and a half. I doubt this will be kept. &mdash; Deckiller 09:52, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
