22: 71: 53: 81: 198:, which already covers architectural monuments more succinctly. It would be unreasonable for two navboxes to exist with such overlap, and it's unlikely (and undesirable) that they will both appear at every relevant monument article. It seems more sensible to remove the massive, overly detailed sections on monuments here and simply replace it with a link to 270:
If editors disagree with one or more of these changes, they can revert as needed, but if so then I'd strongly encourage some serious and constructive feedback on how else to manage the content of the navbox. Apart from some very welcome clean-up from previous editors, I don't see any major attempt to

Even with these parts removed, there is a huge number of red links and unnecessary, repetitive details; e.g. lists of "important centers and extensions" which end up relinking many cities multiple times, and whose selections are essentially information that should be normally described and sourced in
254:
To add some substance to the culture section, I've added links to some notable writers/scholars. With a similar idea in mind, I've added a new section on other notable people (consorts of sultans, administrators, etc). These are not covered by any navbox to my knowledge, but they are generally found

I've simply removed the other "chronology" and similar sections in the Beyliks. Again, these are basically content summaries, not lists of links to aid navigation. All of this is information that should be described and properly sourced in articles, which creates all kinds of potential problems. If

Per my previous comment above, I've removed the architecture and historical monuments sections. Replaced with a link to main architecture article in a "culture" section instead, which could be expanded as other relevant articles are created in the future.

an article (the sources listed below the template here don't provide all that information to my knowledge). I'd recommend removing these too, but I'll leave that alone for now since at least they consist of actual blue links.
202:, the overview article. Other problems with the current format here: 1) there's an unreasonably large number of red links, many of which will almost certainly not be turned into real articles soon or ever, which goes against 175:
This template is far too large, and needs to be split up. There is also a tendency (not unique to this navbox) to add material to navboxes that really belongs in article content – another opportunity to trim this template.

reckon with the template's size and scope since 2007. Please remember that the focus of Knowledge is its articles, and the navboxes are here to aid the articles, not the other way around. Please see

I'm going to have a look at this now or soon, and maybe try to implement some of this. Feel free to discuss disagreements/suggestions.

there are important events with their own articles that can be linked, I'd suggest creating sections for those where applicable.
