A fact from Constantinople massacre of 1821 appeared on Misplaced Pages's Main Page in the Did you know column on 10 March 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that after the Greek War of Independence broke out in 1821, Greeks were the targets of mass executions, pogroms, and looting in the Ottoman capital of Constantinople? A record of the entry may be seen at Misplaced Pages:Recent additions/2013/March.

Casualties

This article was nicely done. I believe the amount of casualties should be added to assess to scope of the massacres. Unfortunately, I found a few unreliable sources. They numbered the casualties in the "thousands" but there is no approximation as to how many. Have you guys found any?

As retaliation Turks massacred thousands of Greeks (Romeoi) in Constantinople, Adrianople, Smyrne, Kydonies and elsewhere in Micra Asia. Proudbolsahye (talk) 07:01, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
