ARXW,

I suspect that since the Turkish F-16 losses are not universally accepted to have resulted from combat, they aren't credited.

The second point is that Greece and Turkey are (theoretically) NATO allies and aren't meant to be shooting each other down... If you put together the lack of acceptance with the presumed lack of a war/limited war/military conflict of any sort, then you can begin to see the rationale.
