Merge from Sultans:Imperial Princesses?

Yes, but how much needs keeping? Johnbod (talk) 00:55, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

That's the same as a deletion, as femals had no place in the succession at all. --85.226.43.165 (talk) 18:10, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Bayazit I and Şehzade Mustafa

I'd like to add two remarks:

  1. It is claimed that fratricide had begun by Mehmet II. What about interregnum which was half a century before Mehmet II ? Even before interegnum, Bayazid I killed one of his brothers and caused the execution of his other brother by means of conspiration.
  2. Prince Bayazit was not Süleyman's only victim. What about Prince Mustafa ?

Violation of WP:BLP

I am concerned that this article, which has no citations for any of its mentions of living people, violates the policy Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living people. I have started a section about it at Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard#Line of succession to the Ottoman throne. Chick Bowen 21:00, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

I have overhauled the article. Hopefully, it's okay now.Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
The article was reverted today to the problematic version without discussion, and I changed it back.Anythingyouwant (talk) 23:28, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
Despite the BLP discussion, IPs keep reverting. Please discuss here instead.Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:55, 13 March 2011 (UTC)


Why is the heir apparent to be deleted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.136.109.73 (talk) 04:59, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Because no reliable source is cited. You would need a footnote describing a reputable newspaper or book, or something like that. Please see WP:BLP for details. Thanks.Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:02, 13 March 2011 (UTC)


That really is a joke The heir to the throne are everywhere on the web And even there, the official homepage The other members also exist and it has everything its accuracy. http://www.ottomanfamily.com/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dilek2 (talkcontribs) 05:11, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

It's not a joke. It's just the way Misplaced Pages works. Misplaced Pages articles should be based on reliable, published sources. See WP:RS. That helps not just to ensure that the information is accurate, but also helps to ensure that only the most significant information gets into Misplaced Pages. I could start a website that says all kinds of things, but that doesn't mean it should go into Misplaced Pages, even if it is all true.Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:18, 13 March 2011 (UTC)


Well, does not matter if you delete it These people exist and have home pages and there are better sites than Misplaced Pages Delete what you want ... but I am not active in it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.136.109.73 (talk) 05:21, 13 March 2011 (UTC)


Line of succession to the Ottoman throne----???? All the descendants are deleted????

There is no Ottoman throne anymore, so thus article is necessarily a historical description of the line of succession, except where other info about the subject is well-sourced and inserted by consensus. There is now yet another discussion at BLPN at WP:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Ottoman_descendants.Anythingyouwant (talk) 19:40, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
