I'll take a look at this. Give me a couple of days. To be going on with, re images:


 * The map: "Source" means where did the information on the map come from, which was probably a book.
 * I did not create this map but there is a nearly identical map on a book I own so I added it as a source on Commons.--Catlemur (talk) 19:32, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Good stuff. Thanks.

Thanks. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:32, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The lithograph: Needs a US PD tag. And "Source" in this case means where did you find the image which you self scanned? Again possibly a book.
 * Don't know where its from so I am removing it.--Catlemur (talk) 19:32, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The medal: I assume that you mean that you have an image of the medal, rather than the actual medal? If so, then see immediately above.
 * Removed it for good measure.--Catlemur (talk) 20:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

I have done a little copy editing which you will want to check. If you are unhappy with any of it, please flag it up here.


 * You start your list of divisions with "the 1st Infantry Division". Each of the other divisions needs 'the' in front of it.


 * "and the reserve (redif) Nasliç and Aydın Reserve Divisions" This seems a bit inconsistent. Are you sure that the Aydın Division had "Reserve" in its name? And that the Nasliç Division didn't?
 * Removed the extraneous Reserve.--Catlemur (talk) 20:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)


 * "locating the headquarters of the VIII Provisional Corps at Hania Viglas and those of a reserve division at Glikovo" Are these Ottoman or Greek units? If Ottoman, could you say so?
 * Those are Ottoman units whose positions were located by Greek patrols, I added Ottoman in front of the VIII Provisional Corps again.--Catlemur (talk) 20:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)


 * "Having ceded Thessaly to Greece in the aftermath of the Convention of Constantinople" I thought that Thessaly was ceded by the Convention, and in the aftermath of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878?
 * Replaced with "Having ceded Thessaly to Greece in the Convention of Constantinople (1881)".--Catlemur (talk) 20:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

That all seems good. A little more copy editing from me for you to check that you are happy with.


 * A sentence or two at the end stating how the war ended would be useful?
 * I wrote a couple of sentences on how the war's conclusion.--Catlemur (talk) 16:42, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I have tweaked the language a little. Could you check that you are happy with my changes?


 * Cite 7: a hyphen in the page range.


 * Katsikostas: the English translation of the title should be in title case.

I shall have another read through, but apart from this it seems good to me. A well put together article. Gog the Mild (talk) 17:09, 26 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Good work. Nice article. Promoting. Gog the Mild (talk) 16:48, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
