"Reorganized"?[edit]
What exactly does it mean that this was a "reorganized" mosque? That's not exactly idiomatic English. --Jfruh (talk) 19:23, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not a native speaker so such mistakes may occur, you know. What way to name the act of making a mosque a church would sound natural in English? Convert, reshape? Reorganize sounded a bit weird to me too, since I used a dictionary to find the equivalent of a Bulgarian word, but could come up with no better 'solution' than that, unfortunately.

- I would say "converted" is the word you're looking for. I would have made the change but when I was looking at the article a vandal had blanked most of the text, so there wasn't much context for me to figure out what was happening. I'll tweak it now.
"ABONDED"? Mosque?[edit]
After Sofia left Turkish rule, the Black Mosque was used by the Bulgarians as a warehouse and arsenal for a while. By 1903, the completely converted into a church of named "Sveti Sedmoçislenitsi".
The madrasa building is used as a prison for a short time.
You can't massacre history here, Here is not propaganda agency for etnic cleansing. The lies of this place was built on ruins, are false and I corrected the article, be neutral, this is an encyclopedia. Cengizsogutlu (talk) 13:22, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
