== Help/feedback with an article? ==
== Articles without any cites at all ==


Merhabalar,
Hello, I have been working on an article that involves Turkey. However, I do not speak Turkish and don't know where to begin with Turkish-language sources. Is there someone here who would be able and willing to help me on expanding the article? [[User:Pietrus1|Pietrus1]] ([[User talk:Pietrus1|talk]]) 18:44, 25 May 2024 (UTC)


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.
== Turkish Delight ==


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.
Selam,
A sockpuppet who was evading a block, made many changes to the [[Turkish Delight]] page. Due to the complex structure and my lack of experience, I wanted to write here to see if someone can revert the edits according to the guidelines.
Thanks in advance.


Some other people such as {{ping|TheJoyfulTentmaker}} and {{ping|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.
Also i also tag you incase you are interested, @[[User:Beshogur|Beshogur]] [[User:Göycen|Göycen]] ([[User talk:Göycen|talk]]) 10:20, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

There appears to have been some edit warring over the date of birth of [[Mustafa I]], currently indicated in the article as c. 1600/1601/ The ''[https://ia601006.us.archive.org/13/items/encyclopediaofottomanempirebyg.agostonandb.masters_201909/Encyclopedia%20of%20Ottoman%20Empire%20by%20G.%20Agoston%20and%20B.%20Masters.pdf Encyclopedia of the Ottoman Empire]'', p. 409, cited as a source in this article, says: "Mustafa I (b. ca. 1591–d. ca. 1639)".

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.
