If you can, keep an eye on the Kosovo page. I intereved in the last 24 hours to ease matters concerning talk of "conquest". To do this, I diverted attention to the actual events which were relevant, those of the Treaty of London, 1913. However, a user called Interestedinfairness took it upon himself to erase my edits, reinsert "conquered", and expand the paragraph to include unreferenced irrelevant nonsense about "Kosovo enjoying 500 years of status." I don't know whether Kosovo continuously existed over 500 years but it appears that neither does he. My fury towards this particular user is the shocking remarks he made when addressing you that Noel Malcolm is "neutral". He is as neutral as Nataša Kandić. My point is that the rubbish that comes out of these people's mouths is so "neutral" that it is used to bolster the propaganda campaigns of opponents of the Serbs affiliated to the 90's movements; whilst those very Serbs, and a catalogue of other non-West sympathisers, are highly critical of such individuals. Malcom is no stranger to criticism; and I too, far from being an expert, consider this man largely a comedian. He gets dates wrong, facts mixed up, and produces erroneous statements. He calls himself a "historian" but is at most a biased commentator who has browsed into the past, if only to pick out items he think will help his prejudged aspirations. Never the less, that user cannot be allowed to have his version stand. So if you'd be so kind, watch this article. Much appreciated. Evlekis ( talk) 01:52, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually each term has a different meaning. According to this [ [1]] and [ [2]] Turko-Albanians were groups of both (muslim) Turks and Albanians. It was to describe the (Muslim) Ottoman authorities, no matter their ethnicity. Since the Ottoman authorities in most of Greece were mostly Turks or Albanians the term Turko-Albanians was widely accepted.
Moreover the term is a historical one, used as such in English bibliography [ [3]][ [4]]. Off course a Muslim Albanian after 1912 can't be defined as Turko Albanian Alexikoua ( talk) 22:06, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
