Talk:Güzel İstanbul

Did you know nomination
-
 * Hey Mandarax, I did intend to nominate both Güzel İstanbul and Gürdal Duyar if that is possible/allowed. Gürdal Duyar has just become a GA but Güzel İstanbul is still a GAN. Since the DYK topic is about the sculpture it seems appropriate to nominate it. Gazozlu (talk) 10:05, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay, Gazozlu, I've restored what I removed, plus I made the second article bold. When Güzel İstanbul becomes a Good Article, please leave a note to that effect on Template:Did you know nominations/Gürdal Duyar. All further comments regarding the nomination should also be left on that template (don't do it here on the talk page, because potential reviewers wouldn't look for it here).   M ANdARAX       XAЯAbИA M    22:05, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

DYK2: Did you know that the lost plinth of Gürdal Duyars nude sculpture Güzel İstanbul contained reliefs of motifs including fig, pomegranate, honeysuckle and a bee through which he represented different aspects of Istanbul?
