Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

@Doug Weller thank you so much for welcoming me. It seems you are an admin. Please keep me in your watch list as I am not familiar with the policies. I am interested in Mahidevran Gülbahar article and this subject was the only reason I joined Wikipedia, hopefully in future I will be able to contribute to other articles as well. For now, I find many things wrong with this specific article. As this article is missing neutral point of view. I hope I will be a good contributor. Thank you much.

Original research
[edit]Hi - stating that something is "the most convincing theory" without attributing to a reliable source is what we call original research and something we should never do, see WP:NOR. Doug Weller talk 18:03, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
- Hello Doug Weller and thank you for noticing me. Please note that the statement "the most convincing theory" was not added by me originally. It was added by Worldandhistory, please see here. I only stood by the point as it seemed convincing to me. Thank you again.
- Ok, thanks for mentioning that you didn't add it. I've suggested to another editor that there be a discussion on the talk page on original research and the use of reliable sources, as there are clearly problems that are probably due to there being several inexperienced editors involved.
