Improvements ???
[edit]Is This edit regarded as "inprovement" ? This ivent is described as "the Annexation of Alexandretta" (google books) in historiography written in English language, as "Hatay'ın ilhakı" (google books, literally the annexation of Hatay), "Hatay'ın Türkiye'ye katılması" (Hatay'ın join Turkey), "Hatay'ın Türkiye'ye katılması" (Hatay's join motherland) in historiography in Turkish language. "The return of Hatay to Turkey" (google books} is neither common nor neutral. Takabeg (talk) 13:50, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- Annexation means conquest of a foreign land. For example, it may refer to, Ottoman Hungary.But Hatay was a part of Turkey even after the First World War. It was occupied by the allies after the armistice and after a seies of events (see Hatay Republic) it was returned to Turkey. Return is a much better word to describe this event.

I am sure the authority of Meriam Webster is not questioned. [1]. The two words are as follows:
- annexation to incorporate (a country or other territory) within the domain of a state
- return:to pass to an earlier possessor
In this case the the verb return is much more mesaningful. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 13:13, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
