en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_Entente

Official treaty records date the declaration against a separate peace to September 5, 1914. British treaty records list the declaration as “Signed at London, September 5, 1914,” and a later Hansard reference likewise identifies it as the alliance made on 5 September 1914. So the article’s date is off by one day.

The sentence is wrong because it describes the situation “at the start of World War I in 1914” but then lists two powers that were not part of the Central Powers at the outset.

• The Library of Congress timeline shows that the Ottoman Empire attacked Russia on October 29, 1914, so it joined after the war had already begun in late July and early August 1914.
• U.S. government educational material on World War I says the conflict later expanded with the entrance of the Ottoman Empire in October 1914 and Bulgaria in October 1915.
• A contemporaneous State Department record from October 1915 refers to Bulgaria as having entered into action only then.

So the article should not describe the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria as part of the Central Powers at the start of the war.

The 1904 Entente Cordiale was not simply a set of agreements about North Africa. The official text collections show that the agreements covered a much wider range of colonial disputes:

• a “Declaration concerning Siam, Madagascar, and the New Hebrides”;
• a “Convention respecting Newfoundland, and West and Central Africa”; and
• a “Declaration respecting Egypt and Morocco.”

So while Egypt and Morocco were part of the settlement, it is inaccurate to say the Entente Cordiale consisted of agreements regarding spheres of influence in North Africa. The official texts themselves show that major parts of the 1904 settlement concerned Asia, the Pacific, Newfoundland, and West/Central Africa too.
