Albanian Revolt of 1432-1436
[edit]- ... that during the Albanian Revolt of 1432-1436 forces under Gjergj Arianiti defeated 10,000 Ottoman troops under Ali Bey near the valley of Shkumbin?

This is pretty good overall; I've made a number of copyedits to fix various things. There are two outstanding problems though:
- The last sentence of the first para of the Background section doesn't make sense - "as a result of which many rural areas but the forts weren't under complete Ottoman rule." Please reword this.
- All of the references appear to be broken - I'm getting Harv errors for all of them, e.g. "Harv error: link to #CITEREFFine1994 doesn't point to any citation." Please take a look at this and fix it. Prioryman (talk) 23:10, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
- Fixed.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 16:42, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
- The first issue, concerning the last sentence of the first para of the Background section, still needs to be fixed. I've no idea what that line is trying to say... Prioryman (talk) 23:02, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
- Since this nomination is very old, I will try to help with this issue also, hoping that nominator would not mind it. You probably refer to this sentence: "The replacement of the existing nobility with the timar system led to conflicts, as a result of which many rural areas but the forts weren't under complete Ottoman rule." I will try to explain it. When Ottomans annexed the territory of Albania they implemented timar system into society that had predominantly tribal structure, especially in rural areas. Initially population sometimes resisted to the changes, even with arms, which resulted with rural areas occasionally not being completely under Ottoman control.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 10:40, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for sorting that out. Having had another look at it, there are a few places where references are needed - the last paragraph of the first section (from "Consequently, the changes") has no references. Likewise the last two sentences of para two under "Revolt" (from "Andrea Thopia unsuccessfully"), the last sentence of the following para (from "Despite the military victory") and the last para of the "Aftermath" section (from "As Ottoman rule"). If you can sort this out I think we'll be good to go. Prioryman (talk) 06:55, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
