Discrepancies between sources

[edit]

That little non-action on 27 Feb 1916 isn't mentioned in Langensiepen & Güleryüz; they just refer to carrying troops to Trebizond and oil to Sinope. I'll have to see if Nekrasov has anything about it.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:47, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, done with L & G; I've added their information in Notes. Now to dig up Nekrasov and see what he has to say. I redid the lede; lemme know what you think.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:17, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That looks fine to me - the lead I wrote was more of a placeholder than anything. Parsecboy (talk) 23:58, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
