editI wasn't vandalizing the article. It just looked worse the way you did it. If you put a small paragraph about each time period and put a link above it leading to the main article, then it will be a lot better.

editOttoman Empire
editThere is nothing wrong with the paragraphs being short. I placed the cleanup tag mostly because the style and grammar needs to be improved in many sections. I —tried to explain on the talk page. I started some editing but found the task overwhelming with the small amount of time I have. --Yodakii 15:22, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Detail is certainly important, but so is style and grammar. I think a short well-written article is still better than a long, hard to understand one. In any case, I'll try to fix what I can. --Yodakii 15:49, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks
editThanks for the work on Geography of Turkey. I've found that all but a couple of countries have geography articles that are just a list of facts, so I've been using this Library of Congress source to expand all of them. Unfortunately, the source isn't always neutral, and doesn't have entries for every country. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-10-26 16:25

Anatolia
edit"Please, you do not have to change the Anatolia to Asia Minor. It is an international definition. If you like you can put your argument in the discussion page."
The two geographic names (one Greek, one Latin) are pretty much interchangeable and I guess both are international, aren't they? No big difference.
"I was wondering, if you dare to create page, that will collect the migrations in&out of Anatolia through out time. Maybe you can develop a timeline with referances... That would be ver usefull, and we can put a link to your page under demographics of Republic of Turkey."
I don't have the full picture about all the many many waves of migrations, but there's probably already a timeline under History of Turkey somewhere. All I know is that many peoples have passed through and left their genetic footprint in the contemporary population. :)
--Big Adamsky 22:18, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
I just noticed that you've deleted my entire contribution to Turkey. I urge you to put it back as soon as you can. If you change or delete a sentence or a paragraph you need to state why and then replace the text with something better (if you can). I'll check the page sometime soon to see whether you've improved anything on that particular page. --Big Adamsky 22:29, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
No, what you have done is you've deleted every word of what I contributed as if my contribution were irrelevant or untrue or misplaced. And apparently you haven't read (or understood) what it was you deleted. In stead of deleting you should try to contribute or clarify. I'll deal with this later, when I have the time. --Big Adamsky 23:07, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
You're right, I should calm down and listen to your reason for deleting, without writing in something better yourself. So.. what was your reason? And why do you refer to my contribution as "vandalism"? Are you going to explain your actions at all? --Big Adamsky 00:01, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Tommiks, this page will be deleted at the moment someone familiar with policies notices it. WP:NOT specifically proscribes articles which are image galleries. Of my watchlist, Gallery of Socialist Realism was deleted: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gallery of Socialist Realism. So I suggest you to upload the images into wikiCommons instead. You can refer to images from there in wikipedia with exactly the same syntax. mikka (t) 01:46, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
Ottoman Empire
edit- I am truly amazed of the job done by you!
- I noticed that the template:History of the Ottoman Empire sidebar in some articles was on top, in others is on bottom and started moving them all on bottom. But then decided that you probably know better where it should be. From my experience, horizontal templates are usually at the bottom. If someone wants the article series template on top, he makes it bertical and laces on top right. Please look around and make a proper decision. mikka (t) 01:42, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hi, I went ahead and changed the template:History of the Ottoman Empire sidebar to be more like other templates of this type (narrow, for display at top right of page). It looks better this way, I think. --JW1805 (Talk) 20:22, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Re: Poetry of the Ottoman Empire article
editTommiks, while I admire your work on timelines and think you have done a fine job on them in general, I also think that the timeline used on the Poetry of the Ottoman Empire article is far too cluttered to be of much use, and that the table that was already there (which I have moved closer to the timeline so as to unclutter the beginning of the article) would probably serve better to give a sense of the historical progression of poetry in the Ottoman period. Let me know, on my talk page, what you think about this idea. —Saposcat 10:20, 9 February 2006 (GMT +02:00)

Thanks for uploading Image:Turkey_road.png. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- Paddu 20:50, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
- Note that just specifying that it is the work of the United States government isn't enough. In order to allow others to verify that it is indeed the work of the US govt. you have to cite the source from where you got that image in the image description page. I notice that you have earlier ignored the request to add the source and reverted the {{nosource}} template added to the image description page without adding any indication of the source of the image. This is inappropriate. -- Paddu 20:59, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
- Both Image:Turkey road.png and Image:Turkey-Regions.png have now been deleted due to lack of source information — [1], [2]. You could reupload these images with proper source information. -- Paddu 05:03, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Request: Ottoman Empire
editUser Miskin is making redundant additions to the article, hurting its quality. Here it is (diff. in bold letters):
"Despite its extremely multi-ethnic character, the Ottoman state was commonly known in its days as the Turkish Empire."
This is the introduction sentence to the article. I explained to him/her every recognised empire in history is multi-ethnic therefore that is a redundant addition to that sentence making it look like it was written by an elementary school kid, as if all empires aren't multi-ethnic and Turkish Empire is an exception. Please revert the part to maintain quality. Regards.--Kagan the Barbarian 09:24, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- If Turkish Empire is the English word then what is Ottoman Empire? I know you did that with good faith but it looks even more redundant now. Miskin very well knows it is redundant and unnecessary, don't give in to this. The old form of the paragraph was:
- "The Ottoman Empire (Ottoman Turkish: دولتِ عَليه عُثمانيه, Devlet-i Âliye-i Osmaniye, literally "Ottoman Sublime State"), commonly known in its days as the Turkish Empire, was an imperial power, bordering the Mediterranean Sea, that existed from 1299 to 1922."
- And it was added by Thomas Bloomberg, an apperantly neutral user, who is citing only facts. Do a Google search you get 2,000,000 hits for Turkish Empire. Please revert it to that version.--Kagan the Barbarian 10:01, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know how much I confused you, but you definitely lost me with that last message. I was just asking you to change the first paragraph back to this:
- "The Ottoman Empire (Ottoman Turkish: دولتِ عَليه عُثمانيه, Devlet-i Âliye-i Osmaniye, literally "Ottoman Sublime State"), commonly known in its days as the Turkish Empire, was an imperial power, bordering the Mediterranean Sea, that existed from 1299 to 1922."
- Ottoman Empire and Turkish Empire are both the same thing and both are English; it is redundant to say Ottoman Empire (In English: Turkish Empire). I've seen many Western sources, Italian, Spanich etc., where it is regarded as Turkish Empire. Anyway I can't revert because I broke the 3RR and you are probably gone by now, I'll do it later.--Kagan the Barbarian 12:57, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments. I wasn't aware of the separate article which focuses on the politics of the Ottomans. In any case I'll make an effort to improve and expand the article according to some unbiased sources that I have under my possession. Miskin 20:47, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
I thought you should know
edithttp://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/User:Fadix/evidencepage
The question is why? If you wanted to participate in the edition of the Armenian genocide page, why havn't you said so? Why have you used socks insteed? I wasn't expecting you to do something like that, now I just don't know of what to think about you.
- Tommiks, there are few things you should know, and I advice you to read another time the merging test, since you are a grad student and seem to be good at programming I guess you know what a regression test is. While I have not included the third part, since it includes much of text materials, I thought this was enought for you to come clean, which basically it wasn't.
- If you pay attention, you will see that this is not about you having exams and not being able to contribute, but rather those three users which will cover the holes. If you pay attention to the texts I have bolded you will see that a regression test will yeild a p<0.05. I think you already know what I am trying to say, but still for the sake of 'assuming good faith' I will try to explain you this.
- I really first thought that all this was Coolcat doings, the layouts and stuff etc. I knew that the one that was doing it was not a dumb and that probably a checkuser based on IPs will not yeild any results, and it was apparent that the one that was doing it was faking his English, which was also admitted by Tonny. Slowly I have started this from zero, searching and searching, I have viewed all tha active editors of Ottoman related materials here and Turkish Wikipedia, I have uncovered Nafiz, which I thought was Coolcat, but after intense work, I have started having doubts, because it was as if the pro was not Coolcat but another user. When I checked the statistics of Erik Zatche EasyTimeline, I by mistake found that this design was probably not originating from Coolcat but that he had barrowed it from someone, since two users were using that design you and Coolcat and that most complex versions were worked by you. So, like you see I was not after searching about you, I ended up there because I have realised that I was being wrong all along, while Coolcat and you were working in tandem, you were the brightest between the two of you(I am not trying to to underestimate Coolcats intelligence there). Then, I had the briliant idea of merging contributions, I did that with various users, I thought that no one would be obsessed enought to sporadically contribute in various articles with various usernames and that a merging would show heterogenouty, the user for sure will make mistakes. When I did that, I quickly learned that while there is some form of communication between you and Coolcat beyond Wikipedia talk page, Coolcat inclusion in this merging was problematic, from a series of eliminations only you matched, and this again has nothing to do with your lack of time.
- There still were few problems with that, and it is Coolcat uses of similar edit summeries, the note about 'not everyone has new tecnology' when reducing the size of an image was problematic, since Coolcat was editing for this reason. The answer came when I have read something from you, to the effect that you yourself didn't have a high resolution monitor and that not everyone had one. This was it, in fact in some way or another, you were the one having this idea of reducing resolutions not Coolcat, Coolcat was just the barrower there. So, the edit summaries could have been explained from this, also I have noticed that Coolcat was barrowing expressions and style from many members, started with your own layouts.
- Now comming to the merging test, I think that this would be a very good complement to the checkuser test for many reasons, because only this way was I able to conclude what I have concluded. If you don't mind, pay attention again to that page. In January 27, Karabekir makes his last edit for the day, no edits in January 28, you then appear in January 29, and continue the work of Karabekir, as you say, fx formats. You make your last edit of January 30, in Turkey, the next day, Karabekir reappear and finish what you have left. Each time you disapear, Karabekir reppear and continue your own work.
- On January 3, Karabekir disappear, you reappear and continue your work, on January 4 after a minor edit on the Middle Eastern theatre of World War I, you disappear, Karabekir reappear and answer in the talk page of the same article. On January 5, before disappearing you edit Aftermath of World War I, Karabekir reappear and use the talk page of the Middle Eastern theatre of World War I. And here I am not talking about the content of your edits which clearly present a correlation of near 1. On January 6, Karabekir edit World War I, you appear then for the Template:Timeline of campaigns during WWI of the Ottoman Empire, after you disappear again, Karabekir reappear editing the Middle Eastern theatre of World War I (fixing the minor format).
- This continuity is repeated again and again in the entire process by the three usernames.
- But if you don't mind, let me highlight some other constatations. Karabekir started editing the Armenian genocide article on Febuary 27, 2006, on March 3 he made repeated edits, then he made a mistake that gave him away, let see what it was. March 3, 2006 22:48, Karabekir made an edit deleting temporarly the Turkish position section [3], it was in fact to reorganize it, we understand this after it has been reintroduced after working on it, 20 minutes after, they were reintroduced by pieces, NOT by Karabekir but you Tommiks [4], [5], [6]. You probably made the mistake, because you probably had different browsers each configurated with different user names and set proxies, while you were making those changes you did not realise that it was made under your Karabekir alias. But, this was not it, Ottomanreference too interceded in such a series of edits. First, Ottomanreference was registered Febuary 17, 2006, the same date when after 4 months of silence from the Armenian genocide article, Coolcat started editing. What is interesting is that Ottomanreference started editing the Armenian genocide article the same exact date that Karabekir started editing it (Febuary 27, 2006), Karabekir has made an edit, a little over half an hour after, Ottomanreference makes an edit [7], continuing what Karabekir has started, when we check his contributions, we understand why Karabekir by mistake continued with his other alias, since he had to login in his other alias to make other contributions in other articles. Tommiks, Ottomanreference AND Karabekir few times have made common mistakes, the three write 'grammar,' 'grammer,' the three have already used the word 'paragraf' insteed of 'paragraph.' For example see: [8], [9], [10]. (see summary) Both Karabekir and you have made the exact same edit summaries, example, the claim of making things easier to read as pretext: [11], [12].
- Those are few examples Tommiks of my research, and don't worry, you are not the only implicated, other people using socks are too, one user for example that I also passed the test of merging has been exposed using by socks and not by me.
- You know, everyone make mistakes, not just you, I really first thought that Coolcat was behind that, and I was wrong.
- You will read the rest of my report in this next week, you will see that those evidences I have provided are just some which I decided to present you here. RegardsFad (ix) 00:47, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
- Either you haven't read what I wrote, either you are doing that on purpouses Tommiks. Your answer has nothing to do with my post in your talk page. This is not about copyedit. This is about your login leaving and another comming just after and continuing the work you have left, and this for few days, then that login leaving and you comming back continuing the same exact work. Not only Karabekir and you have worked in the same articles, some VERY specific, but that there is a continuity between both users would convince the most skeptical person, in fact, it was first a Turk that suggested me to merge you while I was previously attempting with Coolcat and other users. Not only Karabekir has identicial edit summeries, not only both of you have made the same exact proper mistakes like writting 'paragraph' 'paragraf,' not only there are continuities between your presences and his, but there are things that just don't fool, example you working on World War I related articles and then after you disappear Karabekir comming back and continuing with that. Besides like I have previously said, one much telling mistake of yours was when Karabekir deleted temporarly the Turkish position section to organize it and minutes after you reintroduced them organized. I believe you when you say that you use student softwares, but like I am sure, any such softwares will yield the same result. I just hoped you would come clean, but you haven't. I just hope that I won't find other logins as I will be trying to close the gap for previous contributions too. Regards. Fad (ix) 16:59, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Political Murders in Turkey (1970s).GIF
editThanks for uploading Image:Political Murders in Turkey (1970s).GIF. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Remember the dot (talk) 18:07, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of List of countries and organizations that list the PKK as a terrorist group
editAn editor has nominated List of countries and organizations that list the PKK as a terrorist group, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of countries and organizations that list the PKK as a terrorist group and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 17:00, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:Adnan_Menderes.png
editThanks for uploading Image:Adnan_Menderes.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:17, 22 April 2008 (UTC).

Image copyright problem with Image:A middleast mosaic -1999 - The original caricature is dated 1885. counsultative menagerie.png
editThank you for uploading Image:A middleast mosaic -1999 - The original caricature is dated 1885. counsultative menagerie.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Xclamation point 18:53, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of History of Bulgaria (1878–1946)
editThe article History of Bulgaria (1878–1946) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No references
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Mr.TrustWorthy----Got Something to Tell Me? 22:24, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of History of Bulgaria (1878–1946)
editA tag has been placed on History of Bulgaria (1878–1946) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Fair use rationale for File:GAP Administration publication 2004- restoration.png
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:GAP Administration publication 2004- restoration.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
editHello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:05, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

File:Turkish Crossroads (1951). Turkish Army.png
editThis picture obviously isn't from 1918. In 1918 just a few amounts of German type stahlhelms were in use in Turkey beside other hats like the Enveriye and kalpaks. In the first years of the republic the French Adrian helmet was introduced into the army. For pictures depicting this just google "Atatürk cenaze 1938". The British Brody helmet which you can see in your picture was introduced sometime around World War II. If you google "Atatürk anitkabir 1953" you can see some sample images. There is no evidence that this type of helmet was in use in 1918 in the Turkish army. Again the uniform in this picture is the type which was introduced together with the Brody helmet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.187.123.155 (talk) 00:14, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
