History log
I notice that the long history log of the article has disappeared. I wonder was it accidentally or intensionally. Can someone help out? CeeGee 20:16, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
- An IP did a copy-paste move of the page. I've fixed it now. Миша13 15:17, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Pedestrians
Transportation says:
- No pedestrians [...] are allowed to use the bridge today.
Then, Other Uses says:
- Visitors to Istanbul in October can sign up for the 'fun run' at many points round the city and take the opportunity to cross the bridge by foot.
So, which is it? Are they allowed? Are they only allowed in October? If they exist, the Transportation section should indicate exceptions instead of a possibly false/overly broad statement. -Ayeroxor (talk) 04:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

BOTEK
BOTEK were established in 1975 and thus could not participate in the first, but only in the second bridge (as per their website). --AHert (talk) 16:55, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
English Name of the Bridge
"Bogazici" is the "name" of the bridge. It shouldn't be translated. The title should be changed to "Boğaziçi Bridge" or "Bogazici Bridge". Bogazici is a proper noun.--176.219.135.111 (talk) 16:10, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
