Talk:Constitutional Court of Turkey

History
I tried to sketch a brief history of the court. However, my contribution ends in early 1980s. The section still needs to be expanded with the history of the court from that date onwards. Okan 19:27, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I went on with a few examples of key decisions made by the court and I reordered the sections. Okan 22:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I will also try to see what I can do with the rest.. Baristarim 03:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

In the overview section, the first sentence makes no sense to me. Maybe it was mistranslated from Turkish? Ajb 23:45, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

This history section should focus on the court itself since there is a separate article on the constitutional history of Turkey--Adoniscik (talk) 19:16, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:ConstitutionalCourtTurkeySeal.png
Image:ConstitutionalCourtTurkeySeal.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
