Military of the Ottoman Empire
This article is a mess. Does not provide any structure or relation or time frames for any of the units. It really needs to be re-written, starting with a master-plan that has some way of incorporating the changes that occurred in 7 centuries to the military organization. The width and depth of the topic is so big that I think it needs some discussion and a plan worked out and might be too big for a single editor to tackle. --Free smyrnan 05:43, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the note Free smyrnan. In fact, the article is already assessed as a "start" which means that alot of work is needed. I hope members of this task force help us reorganize it. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  18:09, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I've just added it to the Collaboration page. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  18:15, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I took a look, have some ideas on how to build a structure. As time arrives I'll post it on the article talk page.--Dryzen 12:19, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Portal proposal
Please have a look at Portal:Italian Wars and see if creating something similar for the Ottoman military history would be a good idea. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  10:59, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The Military history of the Ottoman Empire portal is under construction now. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  12:35, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks nice! ;-) Kirill Lokshin 12:52, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks great indeed! Free smyrnan 13:55, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks to Kirill's layout. I've copied all of the Italian Wars portal layout ;) --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  14:52, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Could you please check if something is missing at Portal:Military history of the Ottoman Empire/Topics? Thanks in advance. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  17:56, 5 April 2007 (UTC)


 * These are the events. Do the articles on structure and organization of the Mil of OE also go here? I am thinking of Military_of_the_Ottoman_Empire, Kaptan Pasha, Devshirme etc. --Free smyrnan 06:18, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Here you go. --  FayssalF  - Wiki me up ®  13:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Byzantine-Ottoman wars GA Sweeps Review: On Hold
As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "Conflicts, battles and military exercises" articles and just reviewed Byzantine-Ottoman wars. I believe the article currently meets the majority of the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues considering the lead and some sourcing that should be addressed, and I'll leave the article on hold for seven days for them to be fixed. I am leaving this message at this project page, along with the other relevant task forces/WikiProjects to the article, since the article falls under this topic and figured you might be interested in helping to improve the article further. The article needs just a few more inline citations, an expanded lead, and some minor cleanup, and if fixed, I'll pass the article. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Nehrams2020 02:44, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
