There is an article on the Occupation of Smyrna. The info in this article should be incorporated to the said article. This way the said article may also be developed because at present it is quite biassed. No need to have two different articles on the same issue. E4024 (talk) 14:16, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Merge to Occupation of Smyrna#Landing at Smyrna (1919). This current article is very incomplete, since it doesn't describe the landing and only the preparations, while Occupation of Smyrna describes the actual landing. Hypothetically you could merge relevant material to here, but despite the large number of mostly-irrelevant references I'm not convinced this needs its own article separate from discussion of the occupation. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:01, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Keep The occupation continued from 1919 to 1922. But this military operation had continued from May to June 1919. This military operation have to be explained in this article. I hope this military operation will be explained more detail. I think this DR is a kind of WP:IDONTLIKEIT like :Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Republic of Pontus. E4024 can request deletion of Liberation of İzmir with same "reason". Thank you. Takabeg (talk) 14:15, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

::Keep: This article deals with the events of May 1919, while the Occupation of Smyrna, deals with 3 years of occupation/administration. I don't understand why this should be deleted, it is notable.Alexikoua (talk) 09:47, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

:@Alexikoua: I do not understand several things you do too, like your adding the "unnecessary" second sentence to your opinion (which was openly expressed in the first sentence) on the delete request. I am sorry that you have provoked an otherwise "unnecessary" response of mine to an "unnecessary" comment of yours... --E4024 (talk) 10:16, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Keep Topic is notable. Athenean (talk) 12:41, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
