- Comment. In Greek letters, the name is Αντισυνταγματάρχης. The Greek article el:Αντισυνταγματάρχης doesn't have any references either, but if you google Αντισυνταγματάρχης through Find sources: Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL, you might be able to find some references.

- Weak keep - poorly sourced but we normally have article about military ranks. Llajwa ( talk) 21:09, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Keep. My preference would be to merge, but there are enough articles on military ranks around the world to justify this one. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 15:15, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to lieutenant colonel or Hellenic Army. This article has zero sources, and we don't have evidence that the topic is materially distinct from the English translation (so Greek sources discussing it won't be helpful unless they actually address the difference from a lieutenant colonel in English).

Redirect to Lieutenant colonel(see below): The namesake on Greek Wikipedia is linked with lieutenant colonel, so the real question is if this "term" merits a standalone article. The article is and has been unsourced for more than 14 years, so there is nothing to merge. I've looked for some sources, but most are glossaries or other kinds of sources with very superficial coverage ( WP:NOTDICTIONARY). A merger should be relevant, when some editor finds WP:RS "now". If so, please ping me. Aintabli ( talk) 02:22, 13 February 2024 (UTC)- Merge to Syntagmatarchis. Sorry to muddy the waters here with a new merge target, but I noticed that other Hellenic Army ranks redirect to a Modern Use section like Strategos#Modern use. Obviously there's no ancient version of lieutenant colonel, but there is Syntagmatarchis (colonel). -- asilvering ( talk) 04:39, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Final relist. More input is clearly necessary.
