I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:51, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

• No DABs
• Fix the license on File:Хрисовери.jpg
  • Done.
• before the Russian troops abandoned before Russia abandoned?
  • Hmmm, I don't know why, but I don't feel this fits.
• Link irrdentism, Austro-Hungarian Empire for Austrian
  • Done, but Austrian Empire for Austria due to the timeframe
  • Indeed
• Is there any link for the occupation of Piraeus, or was that an early action in the Crimean War?
  • No, there is none. This remains to be written. Coverage of 19th-century Greek history is very spotty in WP. I've redlinked it, I will start at least a stub sometime soon.
    • Yeah, I see that a lot, especially with the various Cretan Revolts, which often had some element of Western intervention via warships.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 11:34, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
• Is there any real reason why the company commanders are listed? Aside from Chrysovergis none of them appear to be notable.
  • For completeness of coverage. I also wager that at least a couple of them might crop up in other Greek 'revolutionary' activity of the period, I don't have the access to Greek sources (or the ease of searching them electronically) that would be required to check them all out. I suspect that Pinchuk's book would help here, but until I can get my hands on it, I can only guess...
• Be consistent about spelling out ordinals, 3rd vs third
  • Done for the battalions. The only case I see with 3rd/third is where "third" is used descriptively, not as an ordinal.
• The Legion fought in the Battle of Eupatoria on 17 February. The battle ended in a Russian defeat, the Greeks suffering about sixty casualties. combine these
  • Done.
• Already in 1864, a memorial awkward--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:58, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Changed.
