*'''Move to [[United Kingdom during the Turkish War of Independence]]'''. [https://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=%22Anglo-Turkish+War%22 Google Books] seems to indicate that "Anglo-Turkish war" is a rare-to-nonexistent title for this (and when it does come up, it's talking about the Napoleonic Wars incident, or possibly the full Middle Eastern theatre of WWI from 1914). The current lead also needs to be dialed down a notch or three – it's acting like the British were engaged in much more severe combat against Turkey than was true in reality (where the Greeks thought that the French & British weren't backing them up ''enough''). It's also possible that the section titled "Al Jazira front" needs to be '''split''' to its own separate article called "Clashes in Mosul vilayet (1919–1926)" or the like, which would only end with the [[Treaty of Ankara (1926)]]. This bit of conflict related to the [[Mosul question]] was not 100% related to the Turkish War of Independence, since it would include things like Kurdish revolts that got Turkish support and aid, but weren't exactly Turkish regular troops or anything.

Hi,I need a feedback about my article before it is (may be) published.I would be happy if you share with me the parts you disagree with.@Aybeg 78.174.205.204 (talk) 17:31, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Overall it looks good and is a good topic as part of history, but it needs to be redacted. Aybeg (talk) 06:17, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Saw this patroling. I have posted this article to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history for input as I know that the Turkish War of Independence is an ECP locked article, and that this is a sensitive topic area. thanks. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:05, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 13 July 2024

Anglo-Turkish War (1918–1923)Anglo-Turkish war of 1918–1923 – There has been some move warring. At the very least, this article needs a descriptive title, as it does not have a proper name. It was briefly at the title "United Kingdom during the Turkish War of Independence". Srnec (talk) 14:20, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Move to United Kingdom during the Turkish War of Independence. Google Books seems to indicate that "Anglo-Turkish war" is a rare-to-nonexistent title for this (and when it does come up, it's talking about the Napoleonic Wars incident, or possibly the full Middle Eastern theatre of WWI from 1914).
