 * Hello, is it so difficult to find another image of the said flag? No Philwikiphotographers around? --E4024 (talk) 10:08, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

The acronym
Other than being the initials of the official (long) name, "Türksoy" is a compound noun, in Turkish, made up of the words "Türk" (Turk, Turkish) and "soy" (origin, in the sense of "ancestry"). It could be added in the text of the article. --E4024 (talk) 10:04, 24 July 2012 (UTC)


 * As no objections have come I am making the proposed edition. --E4024 (talk) 09:09, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Members!
On TURKSOY's official site,the republics of Yakutia,Khakassia, Altay and Tuva still appear as observer members, and when I asked them, they approved it. why do they appear on Wikipedia as former members? can you fix it, please? I'd like to fix it, but when I fix it, you take it back and block me. Firatlal (talk) 06:46, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * As far as I remember, Turksoy website was never updated to exclude Republics of Russia. We may need references other than that website.--Joseph (talk) 20:47, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Kyrgyzstan
Kyrgyzstan is not colored on the map of member states, despite being listed as such. Could someone fix that? I'm a total noob. Thanks. Vitus86 (talk) 21:03, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

Altai, Tuva, Yakutia
Turksoy website still lists them as observer states. Any thoughts about listing them back? Beshogur (talk) 18:38, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Turksoy website never removed them. But they stopped participating in Turksoy-related activities. Maybe we can list them as "inactive".--Joseph (talk) 20:17, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * in this link it says TURKSOY has 6 founding and 8 observer members. so maybe edit according to this? It looks like other subjects of Russia did leave on 2015 as well, but probably they're still part of the orgnanization. Beshogur (talk) 20:22, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * hello, could you upgrade the map accordingly? Thanks in advance. Beshogur (talk) 09:05, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
 * spoke with a secretary from Türksoy, apparently this is not an organization of Organization of Turkic States, but an affiliated organization like TÜRKPA. Russian is not an official working language, but they use it. Demograhpy section of Turkey, that shows 99% is from an old data from 1990s, which counts only Turkish citizens. This is what I can say.
