Did you know?[edit]

"that a painting of Nazlı Ecevit has been hanged in the office building of Prime Minister of Turkey [...]"

Smaller point: I think that either "Prime Minister" or "prime minister" is OK (though my own preference is for the latter); but it's probably better if capitalization in the DYK is the same as that in the article. Slightly bigger one: "has been hanged" is ungrammatical. Any of "has been hung", "was hung", or plain "hung" could be OK; whether it would be OK depends on the intended meaning (and on the second half of the sentence). Good luck with the DYK application! -- Hoary (talk) 07:59, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Hoary: Thank you very much indeed for your efforts. I wished you would review the DYK nom as well after spending so much time on the article. However, I am happy that the article has been put in a grammatically correct condition. CeeGee 10:31, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm glad if I've helped. For years I ignored DYK as it seemed impossibly complicated, but recently I've become interested. (Premeditated Chaos and I did this, which was fun ... if a bit exhausting at times.) I'm not yet ready to review any, and I couldn't review one whose sources are all in a language I cannot read at all, but from time to time I like to help along a DYK candidate. I'll try to keep an eye on what happens to this candidate. -- Hoary (talk) 11:07, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I see your position with DYK. It is not complicated when you follow once the instructions step by step. "A good start is half the work." On the other hand, I would be happy and thankful to get assistance by you whenever you are ready. CeeGee 06:34, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks. I saw your a.m. recent DYK reviews."Practice makes perfect." Good luck. CeeGee 09:48, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I merged the entries for Turkey into this. Feel free to continue putting up Turkey entries on that European page. I think the Turkey challenge stopped at 1250 about 10 months ago now??

  • @Dr. Blofeld: Hi again. I checked out the project, and realized that Turkey is not officially included , neither in the list nor in the map. I do not know the reason. Therefore, I would refrain from adding any article, in the fear, it could be deleted. Please understand my position. Thanks again for your efforts. CeeGee 11:04, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Challenge[edit]

Hi, don't forget to put up your articles on Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge. I'm currently running Wikipedia:The Great Britain and Ireland Destubathon and am thinking of doing a Europe-wide one soon, including Turkey so we might finally see Turkey involved in a contest!♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:24, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi @Dr. Blofeld: Thanks so much for your efforts. OK, I will follow your advice. CeeGee 11:48, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If I can get enough people to represent Europe I may even do a Great Britain vs Europe Destubathon to the most articles expanded with European nations challenging the UK. I've never run a vs contest before but I would be interested to see if it would interest people. Even if the "vs" aspect of it didn't prove much of a mechanism I'm sure every country in Europe would have articles improved, including Turkey. The issue is mainly the language barrier, getting people who may not fluently understand other languages and having to use sources in other languages. We'll see. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:59, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Veysel Turan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The cited sources do not appear reliable and (although I don't speak Turkish) I am not seeing other reliable coverage that would support the notability of the article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. buidhe 01:48, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Getting one or more environment/energy articles to featured standard[edit]

Hello CeeGee,

Thanks for the barnstar. Might you have time and inclination to help get List of active coal-fired power stations in Turkey to featured list status or afterwards update tr:Türkiye'deki kömür yakıtlı enerji santralleri listesi?

I think the list is close to passing its featured list review, but if you have time I have a host of questions you might be able to help with. More importantly, once it has become a featured list, I think it should be copied into tr:Türkiye'deki kömür yakıtlı enerji santralleri listesi and translated and the English sources replaced with Turkish sources. Given my lack of success on Turkish Vikipedi so far I am reluctant to spend time on the Turkish article when my effort would probably just be reverted. But if you could establish a good working relationship with tr:Kullanıcı:Estin Giç Giç then you would be able to get the Turkish article also up to FL standard I am sure.

So that the Turkish article also meets accessibility standard Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Accessibility#Table it might be that the first thing to do after the English article reaches FL standard would be to copy the entire source of the table to Vikipedi and translate it. A lot of the translation is already available but some footnotes are new.

Obviously your English is excellent, but as the above is likely to be rather time consuming I would happy to repay your time, for example by doing final copyedit polishes on any English articles you might be interested in.

  • Thank you very much indeed for contacting me and asking for assistance. I am always at your disposal for helping out in translation of technical terms, especially in mining or coal industry,from Turkish to English or vice versa. I studied mining engineering in Germany with distinction in coal miming, and got a doctor title in mechanisation and automation in coal mining there. So, I am familiar with technical details a little bit. As my first foreign language is German, and the English is the second, I do not feel myself competent for editing in GA or FL candidates. I only try my best in Start class articles in English, which are sometimes promoted to C- or B-class. I categorically do not edit in Turkish WP because I think there is a very weak audit over there, so that the whole information bundle can be questioned. Therefore, I will do what I can for you in English WP. For your project to have your FL-list included in the tr.WP, I would recomment you User.Nedim Ardoğa, who is active in en.WP and as far as I know also in tr.WP. My apologies. I am glad to have the option for contacting you for copyediting of my articles. Thanks again.CeeGee 09:18, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for barnstar 25 June[edit]

I’m a bit of a newcomer to the Wikipedia and particularly to the Wikimedia Commons, so I’m not certain if this is the right channel to communicate. However, I wanted to inform you I was pleasantly surprised to find someone in the community took the time to send me a barnstar. You seem to be a Wikipedia specialist, I’m far from even aspiring to become one, but it’s nice to know that my photographic contributions are appreciated. As requested I intend to keep that up, I have a huge archive, and also hope to be able to travel to Turkey somewhere in the future and produce some more. Dosseman (talk) 17:07, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Dosseman: You are welcome. I really appreciate your contributions. Please do not hesitate to contact me again whenever you need to know something about Turkey. Have a nice day. CeeGee 09:41, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't know why you were adding gender--for women, but not for men. That's ghetto-izing, really, because it suggests that being a man is the norm, and being a woman is something that needs to be flagged or tagged. Does that help? Drmies (talk) 17:03, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template reorganization is out of scope[edit]

Hallo CeeGee, I reverted your reorganization of the template Churches and monasteries of Constantinople, since the time scope of this template ends with 29th may, 1453 (Constantinople points to the article about the byzantine city). This means that all what happened afterwards (conversion to mosque/museum, etc.) is out of scope here. If we want to have such a template (that spans the byzantine and ottoman ages), we need a new one. Consider anyway that there is another template

which I wrote long time ago, which address the conversion of the churches in mosques. BTW: I notice now that I described the scope of the template on the talk page when I wrote it: it is enough to read it. :-)

Another question: is the church which you added byzantine? If not (I never heard about it as a byzantine church), it does not belong to this template. Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 15:31, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • I unfortunately did not check the template's talk page. I woıuld have not attempt to make any modifications if the trmplate title was clear enough to point out that the content is "Byzantine churches and monastries in Constantinople" or " "Churches and monastries in Constantinople (up to 1453" Anyway, I know now better. Sorry for my misunderstanding. CeeGee 10:08, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ciao CeeGee, and sorry, maybe was my fault. Actually "Constantinople" by Wikipedia has two meaning: the byzantine city, but also Istanbul until mid 1920s. This is confusing, and I belong to the party which would like to use this name only for the city during the byzantine age, but unfortunately I cannot decide alone. :-) I will add now add "byzantine" to the template title, with this addition will become more clear. About the church that you added, I checked the holy books :-), and is not byzantine,so it does not belong to this template. Maybe sooner or later we should also produce a template named "Churches of Istanbul", for all the shrines erected after 1453, which are a lot: the problem is that I have not many sources about them, so it would be difficult to write articles about them. Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 14:58, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Very nice of you to make the template title more clear. Thanks. Yes, the template you suggest would be useful. Recently, I heard from the TV that there are about one hundred churches in Istanbul. The number includes most likely the ones listed in the existing template. Anyway, I guess you are more compotent than me in this matter. Ciao. CeeGee 05:02, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Prusias ad Hypium Aphitheatre[edit]

Dear CeeGee, I recently added lots of pictures of the theatre to the Prusias ad Hypium category, making a new category for what I took to be its amphitheatre. I used to call it a theatre on my own site, but then read in the English Wikipedia what I take to be your text about it and made it a an amphitheatre. However, I have just been informed by a Kpisimon that "Editor's summary: Das ist kein Amphitheater, sondern ein ganz normales Theater" (This is not an amphitheatre, but a quite ordinary theatre). I tried to find a source for your text, but didn't, so I ask you directly: are you certain your text is correct? If so, please inform me and provide a source I can find (I like to put correct information on the web), if not, do know that the Italian version seems to use the same text. The German one has just theatre, it has a link by the same Kpisimon, to a German site, that indeed only speaks of a theatre. As the Wikipedia often is the only sensible source for most people, it then ought to be corrected. To be on the safe side I'll ask for my pictures to be renamed.Dosseman (talk) 12:46, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!. Thank you for uploading images and contacting me. About the issue you mention above: I don't know for what reason that user claims it is not an amphitheatre. You can see from the images of the ancient city and the from the article Amphitheatre, and the text explaining the venue that an open-air theatre is called so. I don't see anything wrong. Sorry!
