Articles without any cites at all

Merhabalar,

As you probably know you can see a list of articles without any cites at all by clicking “A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project” at the bottom right of the project page and then scrolling down and clicking “Cites no sources”. I think these uncited articles drag down the reputation of this project and maybe its other articles.

A few weeks ago there were over 300. I have cited a few and nominated many for deletion but, as you will be able to see after the weekly bot runs tomorrow, many remain. I have also redirected some of the uncited Dam articles to the list of dams.

Some other people such as @TheJoyfulTentmaker: and @Iffy: have also cited articles and saved them from deletion. If anyone could continue redirecting dams and cite any articles worth keeping that would be great. Particularly sports, music and films as I am not very interested in them.

Thanks for taking a constructive and collaborative approach to these issues. I have little knowledge of Turkey and Turkish sources so cannot help much here outside of the tennis area. Most articles have an intersection of topics with WikiProjects who have an interest in the subject matter, for cultural topics such as sports, music and film, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory/Culture for a list of groups who may be able to help.

An editor has listed the article Boğaziçi for deletion. It would be great if someone from here(ideally from Istanbul) goes and checks if the article is notable enough for inclusion. TNM101 (chat) 15:44, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Is Haykakan Par the same place as Aras Mountains?

Deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Karima Gouit. There may be WP:GNG/WP:RS-good sources in Turkish, so if you can find some, or conclude there are none, please join the afd. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 05:46, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the note! I found two sources from the Turkish media and shared in the AfD. TheJoyfulTentmaker (talk) 06:08, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

It takes more than one person to make a project

Is anyone else here apart from @TheJoyfulTentmaker? If not I will mark the project inactive and stop spending time asking questions here. Chidgk1 (talk) 10:09, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean by "here"? I have the project on my watchlist and occasionally answer questions, but for instance I do not speak Turkish. Ymblanter (talk) 10:52, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

I'm here yes, but I'm more interested in vital articles, or core articles of this project. Do not mark this project inactive. Bogazicili (talk) 14:41, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Merger discussion for Yüksek Hızlı Tren

This is a different proposal to the above. I hope more people might comment. @Ymblanter: and any lurkers here - despite the title no Turkish is needed and indeed these trains are useful to many foreign tourists as well as important for helping the unity of the country in my opinion. @Bogazicili: although obvious less important than the Turkey article you are working hard on, I believe these trains will continually become more useful to the country, as roads fill up with traffic and flying internally between big Turkish cities becomes more expensive with carbon taxes. So it is important for people to properly understand them I think.

Help requested

Hi all, I've been trying to add content to List of radio stations in Turkey after helping prevent it from being deleted, but I do not speak or read Turkish. I would appreciate any assistance from any Turkish speakers. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 22:35, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
