One of many questionable articles by this editor. Couldn't find anything about this so called event - doesn't seem notable. This is the only part of the article that only talks about this event; "This Ilkhanid army succeeded in recapturing several Ottoman-held castles and towns in the region and dealt a blow to Osman I's forces" HistoryofIran (talk) 04:08, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

- Lean keep, but rename Ilkhanid campaign in Bithynia. A real event. See here. Also mentioned here but without a date. I've added two links from articles that refer to it (and have for years). Srnec (talk) 00:20, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: I am having a difficult time finding the relevant portions of the sources linked above, but even if two or three sources vaguely mentioned such a campaign (which could also be part of a more major campaign in western Anatolia), this doesn't appear wikinoteworthy, especially given the lack of long-term significance as this was around the time of the relatively obscure beginnings of the Ottoman dynasty. Unless an eye-opening quantity of sources cover this "specific" campaign in depth I fail to see why this should be kept. Aintabli (talk) 02:28, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete, with no prejudice against recreation. I think WP:TNT is warranted here, given that the author is banned for hoaxes and this is not a terribly readable or informative stub. -- asilvering (talk) 22:10, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
