Talk:Trikomo, Cyprus

Page protection[edit]

I have no idea what's happening here or why, but the article history is a complete sockfest. This needs to stop, so I have protected The Wrong Version^TM for a week. ➨ ❝ЯEDVERS❞ a sweet and tender hooligan 15:22, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Redvers! That was probably the fastest catch of the sock yet...great job. As to the question of "why", it's political POV pushing by a rather persistent puppeteer, and it's not just this article. I'd debated protecting one or more, but hadn't taken that step yet.

If you can point me to articles with a similar level of obvious socking going on, I'll protect those as well. Let me know. Might be worth seeking a checkuser code A to be rid of this troublesome sockmaster. ➨ ❝ЯEDVERS❞ a sweet and tender hooligan 23:25, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article name[edit]

On Google Books, 642 hits for İskele (including Yeni İskele) and 1970 hits for Trikomo. Whilst there appears to have been a shift in the recent years to İskele, Trikomo still remains by far the most common name in reliable sources and the article must remain named "Trikomo". --GGT (talk) 12:51, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Usage of geographical reference in the geographical description[edit]

In Wikipedia, there was a discussion once upon a time on whether Cyprus must be used for island (Ireland send to island) or country (Cyprus sends to country). This discussion ended up with "Cyprus to be used for country". This resulted in every geographical description in Cyprus island to be send to the country (Republic of Cyprus) instead of the Cyprus island itself. I propose the following change:
From:
Trikomo (Greek: Τρίκωμο; Turkish: Yeni İskele) is a town in North-Eastern Mesaoria in Cyprus.
To:
Trikomo (Greek: Τρίκωμο; Turkish: Yeni İskele) is a town in North-Eastern Mesaoria in Cyprus.

Although this does not change the content during reading (since they both appear as "Cyprus"), the correct reference is made.
