I had to chuckle at the " Mustafa ... then turned his arms against the Greek emperor and declared his resolution to punish the Palaiologos for their unprovoked enmity by the capture of Constantinople." The poor innocent wee lad - this comment does seem a bit off kilter in respect of the long wars between the Byzantines and Turks. Who started it? Hmm ...

== Arabic name ==

The name given as Arabic in the first paragraph is obviously in Arabic script. But is it in Arabic? Turkish was written in Arabic script until the 20th century. My guess is this is simply his Turkish name written in a different alphabet.

== Age at beginning of rule ==

It says in the first paragraph of the Biography section that he began his rule at the age of 18. if he was born in 1404, there is no way he was 18 in 1421. Is one of the dates incorrect, or is the the age wrong? ] (]) 16:20, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

A list of Murat's wifes has been presented. I want to comment on the following:
*Both Tacinüssa and Halime were his wifes and both from ] house. Had Murat married to two sisters ? I don't think it was possible. Probably the both names belong to same person.
*According to Prof Yaşar Yücel and Ali Sevim, Murat had married to Melek hatun from ] house. But this name is missing in the list. ] (]) 10:59, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Ghazi

@Surtsicna: what's your problem with the title Ghazi? There is an entire book (Ghazavatname) about him. If you mean succession, learn the difference. Beshogur (talk) 18:52, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

It is not a substantive title. The title parameter is for substantive titles. See Template:Infobox royalty/doc. Surtsicna (talk) 18:53, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

2.5 million ducats

This text: “ In 1432, the traveller Bertrandon de la Broquière noted that Ottoman annual revenue had increased to 2,500,000 ducats.”

  1. Does not belong in the lede as it is not summarizing anything from the article body
  2. Is based on a source from 1972
  3. Is meaningless without context. There was some context there but it was along the lines of “with that money he could’ve conquered all of Europe if he had only wanted” which was obviously false and sketchy
  4. Doesn’t inform the reader of much of anything. Who’s gonna know how much 2.5 million ducats was worth? How did it compare to the treasuries of other kings, sultans, rulers? It’s just a claim someone found and felt compelled to spam into Misplaced Pages.

That whole paragraph is from one source. Is based on a source from 1972 yeah my apologises that Halil Inalcik couldn't write this in 2024, if it would make much difference. with that money he could’ve conquered all of Europe if he had only wanted I removed that statement, you're right. Doesn’t inform the reader of much of anything how so? It says Murad II's reign saw a period of great economic development, with an increase in trade and a considerable expansion of Ottoman cities and it gives about its economy. Maybe reader can click ducat article to read more? How did it compare to the treasuries of other kings, sultans, rulers why should we talk on Murad II article about other rulers? this book is about Ottoman Empire, doesn't talk about other rulers. Also claim? It's a secondary source based on primary source from that period, which makes it WP:RS and stop calling calling reliable sourced contribution spam.
