Talk:Edirnekapı, Fatih

Pogrom of 1955
Hello.

1955 is the year when most Greek Orthodox/Greeks left Istanbul after the Istanbul Pogrom which happened that year. The source is dead, but the year is obvious. Finding a specific source  about the fate of the Greek Orthodox/Greek population of Edirnekapı is proving difficult, but the entire Greek population throughout the city suffered and collapsed afterwards. Undetailed sources indicate that it was badly affected and the local Greek Orthodox Church was burned down.

 * Hallo, and thanks for writing! you are new to wikipedia, so I will explain you the main reason why I reverted you: this sentence is sourced, and you cannot change the meaning of a sourced sentence keeping the source in place. Personally, I know the history of the Istanbul Pogroms and I can believe that the Greeks escaped mainly to Greece, rather that to Nisantasi or Moda. But to have to reference this information. I will copy now this thread where it belongs to, that is on the discussion page of the article. Alex2006 (talk) 13:50, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
