  • I'm confused by these two sentences, could you please clarify (they are both referenced by the offline source). James086Talk 20:00, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
  • "secondary tower in front of the tower" - what is "the tower"? Is it a main tower in the fort?
  • "while that in Vranjina is a local landmark" - I'm not sure what this means.
  • ALT1: *... that instead of surrendering to a Montenegrin army, Oso Kuka killed himself in a suicide attack?
It's a defensive tower of secondary importance like the outlying ones in star forts. His house is a local geographic landmark of the island as in "when you reach Kuka's house, turn left". He attacked the Montenegrin army, there was no Ottoman contingent involved.--— ZjarriRrethues — talk 19:18, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
Is this edit I made correct? diff Just for clarity when reading. Also, does this mean he had 2 houses, one in Shkodër and one on the island of Vranjina? James086Talk 13:29, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Yes it's quite correct and he had two houses.--— ZjarriRrethues — talk 18:32, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
  • In that case it's good to go. I also made this change to make that a little clearer. James086Talk 14:32, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
