== Is ] the same place as ]? ==
== Quarters of centers of a district and the district itself; the confusion and how do we fix it? ==


Please don’t reply here but at ] ] (]) 19:03, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
What I'm trying to say is that just like provinces, almost all districts in Turkey are named after their historical, central cities. For provinces, we seperate these two (ex. ] and ]) but for districts, both are merged into the same page. This issue has already been discussed in various talk pages of said articles. You'd think it is easy to fix this, just create a seperate page for the central quarter. Yes, though it is hard to create a seperate page for every district. My proposal is to create such pages only for very important districts of Turkey (such as ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], etc.). This is a very difficult mission, but if multiple people work together, I'm sure we can solve this problem. What do you think? ] ]<sup>/</sup>] 18:22, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi, this is an interesting idea, but with some practical problems. Unlike the Çanakkale example, there is no administrative unit "Üsküdar" apart from the district and municipality "Üsküdar". You may ask yourself what you would write in an article about the city centre of Üsküdar that would not fit in an article about the municipality. There are some exceptions, for instance there is a neighbourhood (''mahalle'') inside ] district/municipality that is called ] (or "Beykoz Merkez"), perhaps some of the information that is specifically about the centre of Beykoz could go there. ] <sup>]</sup> 08:57, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
::I have some comments.
::1. Going with the current example, ] is the seat of the ] it is not, in itself, a municipality. The municipality for the city of Çanakkale is the ] (for metropolitan municipalities the center city is divided into many districts, in that case each rule different areas of the central city.)
::2. Not every district has a central neighbourhood, a lot of them have their centre divided too, even if they do have one, it might include a bigger or smaller area than the city itself.
::3. It doesn’t actually matter if there is a municipality or not for the page created, for example ] is not a province, district, municipality, village or neighborhood but the page still exists because the settlement area exists. ] ]<sup>/</sup>] 13:08, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Actually there is a difference between Çanakkale District and the municipality of Çanakkale, since Çanakkale Province is not a metropolitan province. Therefore we have separate articles for the district and the town/municipality. I agree with your points 2 and 3. But what would you write in an article about the locality Maltepe, that would not be duplicating information that belongs in the article about the district/municipality of Maltepe? ] <sup>]</sup> 08:21, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
::::The thing is that yes, it’s true, everything would be the same, but the district page would be mainly about the admisitrative unit and not the settlements in it, and the district articles would be cut significantly. If you say this is a loss of enclopeadic information, I say no because everything that is mentioned in the district page about settlements other than Kadıköy are already written in a more detailed manner in their seperate pages. ] ]<sup>/</sup>] 13:19, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

This is a different proposal to the above.

So it is important for people to properly understand them I think.

== ] ==

Starting this July, we will see a new contest on the scene - the Developing Countries WikiContest (])! Think of it as a ] but only for articles and media on developing countries.

Competitors may submit ]s, ]s, ]s, ]s, ]s, ]s, and ] and ] entries from/on developing countries to gain points and climb the leaderboard. Points are also awarded to those who review GAs, FAs and FLs.

Turkey is listed as a developing country for the purposes of this contest and articles related to it are eligible to be submitted for points, so I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content!
