Bir şey değil. ;) —Khoikhoi 20:49, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I believe you can do whatever you want with PD images, as they're not copyrighted. —Khoikhoi 00:40, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm not sure if that's necessary, but you might try {{GFDL}} or {{GFDL-self}}. —Khoikhoi 00:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Or {{PD-self}}. —Khoikhoi 00:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What, was the sea flooded with macaroni? ;) There are some pretty good images of Turkey in my gallery. My favorite of which is this one:

Yeah, you did a good job, I just thought it was funny. That image is already in the Antalya article btw. —Khoikhoi 04:24, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like that too—thanks! —Khoikhoi 04:40, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Bursa Anadolu Gymnasium.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bursa Anadolu Gymnasium.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Yes

I dunno, you guys don't want the Greek name mentioned AT ALL in the intro, while we want it at the very top—I think it makes a nice compromise. We have the Turkish name at Samothrace for example, what's so bad about that? —Khoikhoi 17:45, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, as you said from the naming conventions, the names that are not relevant should be in a separate section. I believe that the Greek name is, but anyways, you might want to see these articles for example:

Sibiu (IPA [si'biw], German: Hermannstadt, Hungarian: Nagyszeben) -- in Romania
Hrodna (Belarusian: Гро́дна, Го́радня, Гаро́дня; Russian: Гро́дно, Grodno; Polish: Grodno, German: Garten) -- in Belarus

The way that I see it, is that it's good to represent all the history of a place, not just its recent history. There are tons of Turkish city articles that have the Greek, Armenian, etc. names at the top, and I personally think they're helpful for historial reference. For example, if I want to know what modern-day city is "Ancyra", I can just type it in, and clearly see it at the top of the Ankara article.

Anyways, I'm very sorry for being rude (unlike where you are, the whether sucks today, and I guess people get mad when it's 85 degrees F.). I hope the dispute ends soon... :) —Khoikhoi 22:10, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Placenames

I certainly have nothing personal with you. But as I can see your countributions to Istanbul article have been significant, yet for a strange reason, you dont seem to follow your own remarks regarding alternative names. You add the Turkish name AT THE TOP of Alexandroupoli article but you dont add the Greek name AT THE TOP of Istanbul article. That of course is totally unacceptable. So i ve discussed with other editors one solution: That is to add names in the article and not at the TOP. This solution seems to work. But I, personally, will not tolerate adding Turkish names on Greek places(AT THE TOP) when there is no adding of the Greek name in a place of such importance to Greeks as Istanbul.Regards.Mywayyy 17:27, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
