Date issue
[edit]According to the Official Presidential web site of Egypt Ismail started his rule on January 19, 1863 as Governor, not January 18. Also, is governor equivalent to viceroy? Ekem 16:09, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- Changes made in compliance with Rulers and heads of state of Egypt that uses the term Governor and the Official Presidential web site of Egypt Ekem 14:48, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Photograph
[edit]I believe that is a photo of Tewfik, not Ismail. Jpiccone 21:12, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Ottoman?

Is this a blog or encyclopedia?
[edit]Where is there any evidence for scholarly sourcing of this section and paragraph:
"Debts
These developments – especially the costly war with Ethiopia – left Egypt in deep debt to the European powers, and they used this position to wring concessions out of Ismail. One of the most unpopular among Egyptians and Sudanese was the new system of mixed courts, by which Europeans were tried by judges from their own states, rather than by Egyptian and Sudanese courts. But at length the inevitable financial crisis came. A national debt of over £100 million sterling (as opposed to three millions when he acceded to the throne) had been incurred by the Khedive, whose fundamental idea of liquidating his borrowings was to borrow at increased interest. The bond-holders became restive, chief among them the House of Cattaui. Judgments were given against the Khedive in the international tribunals. When he could raise no more loans, he sold the Egyptian and Sudanese shares in the Suez Canal Company in 1875 with the assistance of Yacoub Cattaui to the British government for £3,976,582; this was immediately followed by the beginning of direct intervention by the Great Powers in Egypt and Sudan."
This appears, with its purported, very specific, names and other 7-digit facts, without any tie to the sources that WP policy requires. And no warning message to indicate there is any problem. This is not student-worthy content, as it breaks your own stated rules.
