Disambiguation link notification for June 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Demirören Group, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page LPG (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

fails WP:GNG

Notability for biographies

Regarding this edit, it would appear to me that it is you who does not know what "notability" means here on Wikipedia (which is something very different than in "real life"). To see what makes a person notable, please have a look at WP:BIO and WP:GNG (and the specialized guidelines linked from those two guidelines). Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 09:36, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Use some common sense: do you really think someone who has been a CEO of a billion-dollar company for six years isn't going to have enough media coverage to merit a WP entry? There's plenty of media mentions. It doesn't amount to a lot of biographical detail, but it's easily enough to justify an entry. Podiaebba (talk) 11:13, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Then why, if it is so easy, do you wait with adding adequate sources until somebody tags the article for missing sources? Doing so from the start will save you (and other editors) a lot of trouble. --Randykitty (talk) 11:27, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well I thought it was enough, and Berat isn't a priority. I mostly at this point just wanted to record my finding out who his father is, showing that it's not the founder of the Albayrak Group but the journalist, but was hindered by there not being an entry yet.

Halk Tv

History section of Halk Tv article is entirely citing to a single source which is Today's Zaman, and you are still removing the single source tag. [1] Please do not remove the tag again. --84.211.119.140 (talk) 20:41, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, it has two sources - two different Today's Zaman articles. And if you want people to respect your tagging, try getting an account. Podiaebba (talk) 20:47, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't see any second or third party source so it has a single source. Also I suggest you to read this essay. I've never heard that users should have an account to see respect. --84.211.119.140 (talk) 20:59, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Given that you're now actively vandalising the page (removing sources, claiming "one source" when there's three), yeah, well done for proving the point that people who can't be bothered to make an account are "human too". Podiaebba (talk) 21:03, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I did simply ask you to add second or third party resources to the section. Now I can see you did add them. Thank you for your efforts. But I do suggest you to be civil as it is a wikipedia policy and one of the five pillars.--84.211.119.140 (talk) 21:22, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You were using the wrong tag, and wrongly saying it was a "single source", and... never mind, I guess we got there? Now why don't you show some civility by giving yourself a pseudonym? It's a bit rude to insist on talking to people without giving yourself any sort of label, I think. Podiaebba (talk) 21:31, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Original Barnstar
	Thanks for all your excellent articles on Turkey. You've been editing here for less than two weeks, but have already created dozens of well-written, referenced articles. Well done! Captain Conundrum (talk) 11:21, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I keep seeing "who or what is that?" situations arising from the Gezi protests, and when I figure it out, I want to write it down. Podiaebba (talk) 11:23, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2013 protests in Turkey

I kindly ask you to discuss large changes (including restructuring and forks (sub articles)) on the talk page first. This way other people can weight into the decision. Thanks. -- A Certain White Cat ^chi? 00:31, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Susurluk car crash

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Susurluk car crash. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Susurluk scandal. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Susurluk scandal – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. noq (talk) 15:04, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable medical sources and Treatment/Counter-measures for Tear gas

Hello Podiaebba,

I fully appreciate the point you make in the edit summary [2]. But there is a real problem here. I don't know whether or not you're familiar with our requirements for use of reliable medical sources for any therapeutic claims. Since this content clearly falls into that category, I feel it can't really remain in the Treatment section. However, as I've argued on the talk page, I do feel it can reasonably be retained under "Counter-measures".

Please note that by reverting I don't wish to show any disrespect for editing (or spark an unwanted edit war). Regards, 81.157.7.7 (talk) 16:11, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your courteous message. I see your point about reliability of sources - but I don't see that putting the text in a different section makes any difference there - people are just as likely to try and rely on that info in that other section. The text should make clear the reliability of the sources, and then people have to make up their own minds. Or else we should remove it altogether. Podiaebba (talk) 16:58, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for for the thoughtful replies. I'm really not sure. You might like to raise the question here: Wikipedia_talk:MED#Vinegar_and_tear_gas. Best, 81.157.7.7 (talk) 17:20, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
