I made a minor correction, there were no "Romanians" back then. Is a common mistake in history to identify old people with modern nations. There was no national conciousness of this kind in the middle ages.
In the section on Beyazid in Ottoman Empire, i've NPOVed the portion on nature of Murad's death and outcome of the battle of Nicopolis (AKA Nikopol, Bulgaria). I edited only that article, for the moment, since it is clearly in progress (and the contributor may be about to review transcriptions or wording for reconsideration) and since there are two articles at hand that contradict the battle part.
I am also adding this note to talk pages of Ottoman Empire, Beyazid I, and Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor.
If the Ottoman Empire contributor defends her/his version with sources, IMO others should also bring forward sources, and there should be discussion, in case the factual dispute is not resolved, about how to lessen the burden of NPOVing the various articles affected - e.g., could all three articles say "see Death of Murad and Battle of Nicopolis for controversial matters relevant to this section"? -- Jerzy 20:40, 1 Oct 2003 (UTC)
Beyazid I didn't conquer Constantinople, did he? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by The Phoenix (talk • contribs) .
No. He besieged it after the Byzanyine Emperor Manuel II escaped from semi-captivity at the Ottoman court in Edirne (or Adrianople, depending on whether you use the Turkish or Greek name). Mehmed II actually took the city in 1453 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 210.153.95.101 (talk • contribs) .
Such a very big box! So little information in all that blank space! And not even a caption to tell the reader who painted the (Venetian?) portrait, which dates long after Bayazid's time, apparently. Is it not actually of Bayazid II, patron of Western culture?--Wetman 04:23, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Image:Bajazet.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
No this is wrong, bayezid di not lay siege in 1391, I have this book:
Mango, Cyril. The Oxford History of Byzantium. 1st ed. New York: Oxford UP, 2002

"and prevented Bayezid from conquering the country" - What citation is needed for that ? Did Wallachia get conquered by Bayezid ? Isn't that common knowledge ? --Venatoreng 09:24, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
In the section Marriages and progeny there are two sons named Süleyman. I think both refer to the same person namely Çelebi Süleyman who was the de facto ruler of Rumelia and and was killed in 1411. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 08:53, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
What is the word "false" supposed to mean/imply/suggest in this sentence?
( False ) Mustafa Çelebi, Sultan of Rumelia (d. 1422) - son of Devlet Shah Hatun.
A clarification is needed. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 22:12, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Shouldn't the "In Fiction" section be located at the very end of the article, especially after the legacy and Marriages section? --Defensor Ursa 22:33, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
Bayezid is about 30 years younger than Timur but in this painting he seems wide older than Timur. [1] --Kamuran Ötükenli (talk) 09:19, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
Why is the date of birth 1354 while on the wikis of other languages (e.g. Greek) the date of birth is 1360? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.207.131.148 (talk) 13:01, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
" Constantine of Ostrovica wrote neither about the cell, nor about the nudity of Bayezid's wife ..." - where did this come from? There was no earlier statement about any nudity. Has something been lost inadvertently through copyediting? 50.111.63.192 (talk) 13:57, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
@Sira Aspera: you edit a lot below. Are those date of birhts of sehzades based on the article or on your sources? TDV doesn't mention these birth dates. Beshogur (talk) 09:37, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
