User talk:Kalkim

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia!! I hope that you will enjoy your time here. I was thinking that maybe you would like to get involved with WikiProject Turkey - we need all the help that we can get. There you can also find and contact users who are trying to improve Turkey-related articles. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Happy editing!

Merhaba
Well I was going to write in Turkish, assuming that you are Turkish, but since I see no Babel on your user page, I guess I'll be on the safe side :)

Welcome to the Wikipedia (from such a new user like me) I did take a look at your contributions and I somewhat see that though not exactly overlapping we have some intersecting ideas, therefore I wanted to encourage you to keep contributing. As a newbie, I'd suggest you to be bold in editing, but not "that" bold, especially in such tense subjects. And if you are planning to do, at least don't do it that directly, but try to present your points on the talk page. we (including me) need to crawl a little before standing up. Happy editing :) Ombudsee 19:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm a native speaker of Turkish, don't worry:).. I will put a Babel soon.. well, I see your point, and you are absolutely right.. My intention was not to be fierce, but it actually seems so.. After putting my comments about the article (Denial of the Armenian Genocide) on some (actually two) users' talk pages, which I will probably not do in the future, I have made a comment on the talk page of the article, too.. I will do editing on other (more reliable and less tense) topics, as well, in the future (after starting on a tense topic:).. Thanks for your warning:) Kolay gelsin.. 21:23, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Thanks for your late reply, unfortunitly it comes a little to late, I could possibly not contribute. I am proposed being banned by the arbitration committee. So, I'm into that right now. How sad that now that many new Turkish users offer to contribute and after a relative peace on that article, which I have created by cleaning, I would possibly have to go.

Robert College has been nominated GA
Would you like to contribute to the nomination process or peer review the article? SEE: --Maestro 12:24, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks in advance for the review. WikiProTurkey should have more GAs and FAs. And, yes, I am a graduate of RC. --Maestro 13:31, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Ben de '06. Nice to meet you too. The proofreading was needed and you are right about the history section. This could also help (besides the history at RC website and chronology at BU's). Shall we see RC on front page, some day? Cheers! --Maestro 19:49, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Rica ederim. Hep birlikte. You may also take a look at the second andthird pages of the booklet. Kolay gelsin! --Scientia Potentia  17:05, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Moving Denial of the Armenian Genocide
I have suggested that Denial of the Armenian Genocide should be moved to Denial of the Armenian Genocide allegations. I assume that you would be interested in the debate and would like to submit your opinion on the proposal. See: --Scientia Potentia  16:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your message. I thought the move was possible, but as you implied an army of biased people were waiting to "attack." Ben zaten bu tip editleri yaza biraktim. Bos zamanimda ugrasicam. Yoksa oturup da hicbir sey elde etmeden sacma sapan yorumlara cevap vererek, grup saldirilarina maruz kalarak zamanimi bosa harciyamiyacagim. If majority of the speakers were to rule all, we would still have been in the stone age. Bizim de kendi majorityimizi olusturmamiz lazim. Kolay gelsin. --Scientia Potentia  07:58, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Support for deleting the Category:Anti-Armenianism
Will you support my arguement for the deletion of the Category:Anti-Armenianism that I put forward on May 1, 2009?

It is very subjective and even racist as it puts every person who questions the Armenian genocide, such as prominent academicians, who are not racist or personally against Armenian people or Armenia as an entity, along with assasins and militants.

Thank you

The 1000 Challenge (Turkey)
Hi. I was wondering if you'd be interested in setting up The 1000 Challenge (Turkey), based on The 10,000 Challenge and The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). Now it's not a contest in itself, it's designed to motivate people to inspire others to improve content and build something which demonstrates the hard work going into the country which is visible. The focus is more on quality improvements but new articles are welcome too. Eventually a Turkish National Contest could be created to fuel it, like Awaken the Dragon, in which contestants can choose to keep the Amazon vouchers themselves to buy their own books for more articles or put them into book fund to help editors further improve Turkish-related topics by giving them the books they want. It will begin though as purely an improvement drive. If interested, or you think anybody else might be interested, alert them and sign up on the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Turkey talk page at the bottom. Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:12, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 04:57, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
