Olive oil and pharmacies[edit]

True, oil was sold from pharmacies in small quantities for medicinal purposes. But, the pharmacist may have decanted a 4-litre can into small bottles for sale (and could sell oil in larger quantities if requested) but he would have had no trouble at all buying the 4-litre can of olive oil from one of the wholesale grocers, even in country towns.

I hadn't noticed that before that content before. Pharmaceutical grade olive oil is processed differently to standard edible olive oil which had been imported from the Mediterranean since at least early in the 20th century (both in Australia and New Zealand). There were pre-existing European communities for whom it was a mainstay in their diets. Even fetta and other products were available, although not easy to come by because they wasn't such a high public demand as arose later. I've removed it per WP:NOR. Any such claim really does need to be backed up by WP:RS. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 04:39, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Flag[edit]

Regarding your revert, Aubernas, a flag is original research if it's been made up by an editor. Your edit summary suggests that its design has been used before. Can you provide a source for that? Cordless Larry (talk) 14:14, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since there's been no response here, I've removed the flag again. It shouldn't be restored without a source. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:55, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

10,000 estimation[edit]

Is there any information regarding this claim? I notice on the Greeks page it is suggested upwards of 50,000 estimation. These figures appear greatly exaggerated, and there doesn't seem to be any sources to back up these claims. Rootcragsar (talk) 23:41, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
