Troy
Restoring earlier version of this paragraph. More could certainly be said here, but these aren't opposing viewpoints–– there is zero doubt that Mycenaeans were active in Anatolia but there is ample doubt that their involvement included an attack on Troy

Arzawa
Rephrasing. I agree this information is necessary here if
Ahhiyawa isn't going to redirect to
Mycenaean Greece, though I still think that's an easier way to handle it. (Also removing the pipe in the link, for forward-compatibility + removing Kelder reference that's already provided down below)

Arzawa
Expanding discussion of Mycenaean culture in the main body + trimming it in the lead + adding more clarification regarding the name with sources + bolstering citations with more kelder

→History: Madduwatta is already discussed in this paragraph + the mention of Attarsiya would need more context to be useful here, since the "Indictment" does not mention him being active in Arzawa itselfTag: Reverted

Arzawa
Rephrasing so it's clear when the lead is addressing Arzawa Minor as opposed to the Arzawa lands more generally + knitting the discussion of Ahhiyawa into the characterization of Arzawan foreign relationsTag: Reverted

Konya
→Etymology: Renaming the section since it doesn't contain any factual information about the name's ultimate origin + removing questionable Bronze Age name + adding reliable sources for the actual likely Hittite name + clarifying that the Medusa-related etymology is mythic (per the cited source)
