The Battle of Köse Dağ was a decisive event for the Middle East, marking the end of real Seljuk power and another feather in the cap of the Mongol war machine. One of the great powers of the Mediterranean was overpowered on its own territory by an army half its size operating 4,500km away from its homeland. Quite an achievement, by any measure.

I'll have a look and see if I missed anything at the GAN, although I recall it being pretty tight to begin with. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:14, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Image review

• Don't use fixed px size

• Suggest adding alt text. Nikkimaria (talk) 05:25, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
  • Nikkimaria, done the latter, but I don't know another way to adjust the size of an infobox image? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 12:27, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

• • • You can either modify the template to accommodate upright scaling, or just do this. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:09, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
