I think it will be more suitable to title this article "Cilicia War" (despite that the conflicts had extended the traditionally perceived boundaries of Cilicia). The Turkish article refers to a Franco-Turkish front, not an all-out war. The war was waged by locally concentrated forces. And even in Turkish, the more common definition is the "Southern front" (Güney cephesi). And the French term is "Cilicia War" (La guerre en Cilicie). A search for "Franco-Turkish War" (La guerre franco-turque) gives no hits. Under any viewpoint, naming a war in a way apparently never heard of by the principally concerned parties will look odd.
