Who raided who?

At Special:Diff/978303911, WikiJSPN changed a sentence in the first 'graph under Cossack raid on Istanbul (1615)#Raid from During the 1500s they were also constantly attacking the Crimean Tatars and Ottoman possessions either to plunder treasure or liberate Christian slaves. to During the 1500s there were constant attacks from the Crimean Tatars and Ottoman possessions either to plunder treasure or liberate Christian slaves., which changes who the aggressor was. It is sourced to Cossack raid on Istanbul (1615)#cite_note-3 (Stone, p. 146). Can someone knowledgeable about the subject and/or with the book please confirm which it is? —[AlanM1 (talk)]— 07:44, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AlanM1 That is an honest mistake on my part. I was trying to help clean up a rough translation. I did not intend to change the meaning, nor did I mean to in any way challenge the information- I am certainly no expert on the subject. WikiJSPN (talk) 06:47, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@WikiJSPN: No problem. It was a subtle thing – I'm glad it's resolved without having to find the book. (I trust you'll correct it?)
