Throughout the article the United Kingdom is referred to as "Great Britain", a name they didn't have post the Act of Union in 1800. I have edited this to be historically correct.

Uncommented reverts, weasel words, stalking
most academics" is a weasel word and so is "facing the executors" they were shot to death, not tried and then executed --

I changed "most" to "some" per [Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Claims_of_consensus] andbut left he sentence, for now. But it should be removed per [Wikipedia:No_original_research#Primary.2C_secondary.2C_and_tertiary_sources] and the fact that it is out of context. --

Neutrality
Portions of this article don't seem especially neutral, particularly where the Amerneian Genocide seems to simply mention deportations and not killings. Also at the begining of the article there's comments about the Ottoman Army being corrupt. I put a citation tag there. Perhaps some can go over this article a little more completely than I can at present?

I have gone through about half of the article so far trying to remove non-neutrality. There was also a very obvious anti-Albanian slant in the article which I got rid of. This article, for being such an important topic, still needs a lot of work. I'm surprised it's only rated minor importance in the Turkey category, but that's neither here nor there.

Rewrite
This article needs major revision. It conveys little useful information, has poor syntax, and has terrible tone. I have flagged it for cleanup, and am currently working on a cleaner version of the entire article. There are parts where previous editors have made absolutely no sense with what seems to be frivolous information. I have commented these parts out, so someone with greater knowledge can possibly see something I may have missed.

This article is about "dissolution of Ottoman Empire" (between 1908-1922). There were millions of events happened this period. Not just with Greeks. Greek point of view of this (1908-1922) period is covered in Greek history. Also, if you want to give details each event the Ottoman Empire involved this article become bigger than any other article in wikipedia. You should look at size limitations at the wikipedia. That is the main reason why there is a Ottoman history series. The appropriate way to explain details is to use A SUB-article. Such as
History of Crete. In your edits you rewrite Ottoman history beginning with 1700s. This is wrong, for this article, as only covers a specific period. Also You did a COPY_PASTE (This is also violation of
WP:FORK) on the history regarding the Crete and Balkan Wars. The information regarding the "Ottoman Empire"s position between 1908-1922 is not only appropriate, also fits the purpose of the article. This is not a POV, as you think. The position in question is shared in
WP:Summary Style. --

Ottoman public debt was part of a larger schemes of political control, through which the commercial interests of the world had seek to gain advantages that may not be to Empire's interest.
Oppose The Ottoman Sultanate and the Caliphate was abolished by Kemalist Turkey, after the events detailed in this article. This article deals with the decline and end of the Ottoman Empire. The sultanate was a different institution from the Ottoman Empire.

Strong Oppose, the two articles are not coterminous. This article is about the disintegration and dissolution of a multi-national empire, a rather long process involving multiple actors and by no means predestined to lead to the end of the Ottoman dynasty's rule; the abolition of the sultanate itself is but the final symbolic act of this process, resulting from the whole sequence of events detailed here.

As other (ancient) discussions on this talk page pointed out, this article has serious issues that go beyond poor English. I've tagged it as needing a rewrite and as suffering systemic bias in favour of Turkish nationalism, not least because it completely failed to mention minority genocides (I've now added an empty section with a {{main}} template). It appears to minimise to ethnic tensions, and contains consistent pro-Ottoman and anti-Armenian biases in an non-explicit manner through its selection, exclusion and
presentation of facts, and contains frequent contentious claims without any sources. Frankly, it's a strong candidate for
WP:TNT, as even the better sections with inline sources suffer from far
too much detail. I may come back and nuke it if no editors want to take up the task of improving it up.
