the terms "ottoman frigate ertuğrul" and "turkish frigate ertuğrul" are both correct. it's a matter of personal preference which one to use. while i personally prefer talking about the "turkish" frigate ertuğrul as her legacy is being the symbol of japanese-"turkish" friendship, not that of japanese-"ottoman" friendship, i'm not suggesting any name change for the article. i would rather just like to point out that the "turkish naval forces" official founding date is 1081, it's not 1923. today's "turkish" navy is a continuation of the same navy as the one that the ertuğrul belonged to.Senolgul (talk) 06:17, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
