 * Infobox Ottoman sultan

I think this template can be safely replaced with Template:Infobox royalty, since they share many parameters. I created a test case page for comparing them. The template is currently transcluded on 34 articles. eh bien mon prince (talk) 01:16, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support, with a caveat. Would it be possible to tweak Template:Infobox royalty so that the bold "Signature" label can be replaced with "Tughra" or similar, when that template is used for sultans? I think it important to present the tughra, and it's an image which is analogous to a signature in some ways (each sultan chose a distinctive tughra), but it's not exactly the same thing; so modifying the label would be helpful. bobrayner (talk) 14:16, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support, with bobrayner's addition. Although it is not essential, the tughra has its own specific article and usage, so that would be a good choice to be able to change Signature into Tughra on the infobox. Ithinkicahn (talk) 16:05, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
