Ottoman Empire
The article is stable, contains good information, but requires more sources in order to further validate its content. Any suggestions towards improving the article are more than welcome. Deucalionite 16:24, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Just a few quick observations: -Shoemoney2night (talk) 06:50, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * My understanding is that there shouldn't be any referencing in the lead, as the lead should be summarising the information contained within the article. There shouldn't be any info in the lead that hasn't been introduced (and referenced) within the body of the article.
 * There are large sections of the article without any referencing.
 * Make sure all the references are consistent in format - WP:CITET might be helpful.
 * The article is very long. Perhaps History of the Ottoman Empire deserves its own article?
 * In fact, some of the sections of this article are more detailed than the main articles they're summarising - like Decline of the Ottoman Empire. Maybe some of the information on that can be shifted across to the main article?
 * There are some very useful suggestions in the automated peer review, here. It also might be useful to look at the reasons why the article was delisted, here.
