Pontus is on the Black Sea coast. I'm not sure what that Greek puppet state in South Anatolia is, but it is not Pontus. Also, remember what I said about the need for ethnic cleansing? The Greeks are in a minority in the actual Pontus (i.e. the Russian puppet state), so if Russia wants a puppet there, it'll have to use Turkish administrators. In addition, Greece will be very unstable and cannot reasonably cleanse all the lands it annexed. By the way, I think you forgot to mention what the successor state of the Ottoman Empire is.
I also agree that Denmark wouldn't be eager to join the war and even assuming it would (it's somewhat more plausible than IOTL, since Germany is Balkanized - Denmark would never dare provoke a united Germany), I doubt it'd want to seize such a huge territory, with all its Germans who will, as I said, cause trouble one way or another. Maybe they'll take all of Schleswig-Holstein if they feel adventuristic - I doubt they'll accept more.
Finally, I'd strongly advise you not to just update the same map as you go along, but post a new version of the map after every update so that we can follow the progress of the world as the timeline goes along, even if we're just reading later on. Just post the updates normally, as new posts, and include a table of contents in the first post with links to the updates.
