very good start. Needs more citations. Section on entry into war should summarize the separate article. Image on military structure needs to be clearer. There are templates for that, and perhaps a separate article on the order of battle is appropriate. auntieruth(talk)17:38, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A large part of this article contained content derived from the deleted "1915 insurgency in the Ottoman Empire" article [1]. I have attempted to remove the most blatant pov material and wording derived from the deleted article [2]. However I find that bias and fringe viewpoint material is embedded too deeply and is too widespread throughout this article to be easily removed and considerable work will be needed to get this article to an acceptable npov standard.

I have completely deleted the Inter-communal conflicts as it is so full of pov, bias and fringe viewpoints that it is unsalvageable. It is mostly derived from Armenian Genocide denial propaganda, as was the deleted "1915 insurgency in the Ottoman Empire" article written by the same editor as this article. Genocide is not "inter communal violence". Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 23:11, 30 May 2015 (UTC) Blocked sock:Meowy.[reply]
@Wikipedia Tarzan: This article was specifically created by a nationalist Turkish editor in March 2015, to whitewash the Armenian Genocide centennial one month before it occured, therefore it has to be written from scratch. --92slim (talk) 23:32, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think the following passage from the Balance sheet section should be reconsidered:
"Furthermore, it is also likely that without Ottoman participation, neither the Russian revolution nor the entry of the U.S into the First World War would have occurred."
Given all the factors and forces that led to the 1917 Russian Revolution, stating this event would likely not have occurred but for the Ottoman entry lengthening the war is a stretch. I believe this is an opinion and one that most historians would not support. The Revolution would have taken a different course, but this is different from the statement here. // Timothy :: talk20:06, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Low visibility fork of a concept that is unlikely to be google searched. Would better serve readers as part of the larger article, adding more context to the participation of the empire in the war. Sadads (talk) 16:10, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The two Ottoman jihad articles are clearly about the same topic and should not both be kept. Based on their content, I think that merging to here is likely warranted, as neither has much information about the significance or impact of the declaration itself, beyond signifying the Ottoman entry into the war. signed, Rosguilltalk19:45, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
