Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia!! I hope that you will enjoy your time here. I was thinking that maybe you would like to get involved with Wikipedia:WikiProject Turkey - we need all the help that we can get. There you can also find and contact users who are trying to improve Turkey-related articles. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Happy editing!

Merhaba

Well I was going to write in Turkish, assuming that you are Turkish, but since I see no Babel on your user page, I guess I'll be on the safe side :)

Welcome to the Wikipedia (from such a new user like me) I did take a look at your contributions and I somewhat see that though not exactly overlapping we have some intersecting ideas, therefore I wanted to encourage you to keep contributing. As a newbie, I'd suggest you to be bold in editing, but not "that" bold, especially in such tense subjects. And if you are planning to do, at least don't do it that directly, but try to present your points on the talk page. we (including me) need to crawl a little before standing up. Happy editing :) Ombudsee 19:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a native speaker of Turkish, don't worry:).. I will put a Babel soon.. well, I see your point, and you are absolutely right.. My intention was not to be fierce, but it actually seems so.. After putting my comments about the article (Denial of the Armenian Genocide) on some (actually two) users' talk pages, which I will probably not do in the future, I have made a comment on the talk page of the article, too.. I will do editing on other (more reliable and less tense) topics, as well, in the future (after starting on a tense topic:).. Thanks for your warning:) Kolay gelsin.. 21:23, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi

Thanks for your late reply, unfortunitly it comes a little to late, I could possibly not contribute. I am proposed being banned by the arbitration committee. So, I'm into that right now. How sad that now that many new Turkish users offer to contribute and after a relative peace on that article, which I have created by cleaning, I would possibly have to go.

Robert College has been nominated GA

Thanks in advance for the review. WikiProTurkey should have more GAs and FAs. And, yes, I am a graduate of RC. --Maestro 13:31, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ben de '06. Nice to meet you too. The proofreading was needed and you are right about the history section. This could also help (besides the history at RC website and chronology at BU's). Shall we see RC on front page, some day? Cheers! --Maestro 19:49, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rica ederim. Hep birlikte. You may also take a look at the second andthird pages of the booklet. Kolay gelsin! --Scientia Potentia 17:05, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Moving Denial of the Armenian Genocide

@@ Line 94: / Line 94: @@
 ==Moving Denial of the Armenian Genocide==
 I have suggested that [[Denial of the Armenian Genocide]] should be moved to [[Denial of the Armenian Genocide allegations]]. I assume that you would be interested in the debate and would like to submit your opinion on the proposal. See: {{la|Denial of the Armenian Genocide}}--[[User:Maestroka|Scientia]] [[User talk:Maestroka|<small>Potentia</small>]] 16:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
-==PKK/Turkey==
-I tried {{Casualties of the Turkey-PKK conflict}} for name of the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Turkish-Kurdish_conflict. Now, OttomanRefence is trying.
-:Khoikhoi did not accept it. Khoi said that Uğur Kaymaz was a civilian Kurdish, he was killed, so it is not only PKK-Turkey conflict. But, current name Turkish-Kurdish conflict is wrong because that there is no ethnic conflict. There is a problem related to ethnic Kurdish problem but it is not directly an ethnic war. I asked the naming dispute to R.Cakır, and he said that "I think that "Turkish-Kurdish conflict" is not a good idea because it refers to some kind of civil war that does not exist yet. I would prefer 'Kurdish question (or problem, or maybe conflict) in Turkey' or Turkey's Kurdish question'. But, Khoi did not like the name because according to him not only Kurds are responsible for the conflict. He said that he would think about the name, but no suggestions came form him! I searched on the Internet, and found an article by Koç University academician Somer: "People seem to instinctively understand and fear that this time such a path may lead to a Turkish-Kurdish conflict, i.e. not only a conflict between the state and Kurdish separatists as the conflict previously was, but which involves ordinary people". from http://www.turkishpolicy.com/default.asp?show=fall_2006_somer That would be another nominee for the name: "Turkish state- Kurdish separatists conflict". Is "Turkish state - Kurdish separatists conflict" good?
-::If there is a voting, we should make a consensus. Any name other than current name is more suitable. But, at the last vote, people who are against the current name gave votes to different names so article's name did not change, since there were no consensus. We should refrain from this in a survey.[[User:Paparokan|Paparokan]] 12:00, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
