Needs map correction for data on Thrace
The map 'territorial gains until 1947' shows Western Thrace as coming under Greek rule in 1923, whereas other sources indicate that the date should be 1920. Both Eastern and Western Thrace were acquired by Greece in 1919-1920, and then Eastern Thrace reverted to Turkey in 1923 (correctly shown on map) -- per the Encyclopaedia Britannica entry for 'Thrace' and the Wikipedia article on Thrace.

Pending Changes
Who decided to put this article in 'pending changes'. And who is responsible for accepting or rejecting the new edits? Politis (talk) 22:41, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
Map image link
There is a political map of Greece in the Geography section, which, when clicked, takes one to a significantly different version of the map. This is completely counterintuitive and should be corrected. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.96.187.144 (talk) 22:13, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
Semiprotection
I've re-semiprotected this page, given the persistent vandalisms dealing mainly with the name of the Republic of Macedonia. I fail and the reason should be "Repeated ip-hopping vandalism related to the name of the Republic of Macedonia after a year of semi-protection. Looks like it has to be long-term protected, sadly." year, not hour. Thought I'd write it up somewhere, and yes, the heat must have done something to my brain for not being able to do one clean protection out of three tries :P Snowolf How can I help? 17:32, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
- I agree that conventional semi-protection seems necessary due to the issue about the name of the Republic of Macedonia. In my opinion the pending changes protection that was applied on July 1 is not an adequate replacement for semiprotection. WP:PEND can't deal effectively with long-term POV-pushing by new editors on a well-known real-world dispute, since the history gets cluttered up with the making and the reverting of the same kind of change.

Cuisine
Is there such a thing as a "healthy Mediterranean diet". That sounds like POV to me. I have read recent reports suggesting that the typical Mediterranean diet isn't healthy at all.JohnC (talk) 06:36, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
