Was this guy the inspiration for Borat?

Was this guy the inspiration for Borat? -R. fiend 00:18, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • The Borat page claims so. Tempshill 05:26, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Mahir thinks so, and says he is talking to lawyers in London to evaluate his legal options against Sacha Baron Cohen. This is spelled out in the Borat section, which is very up to date (as I write this on Nov. 7). --Spiff666 16:41, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

According to http://celebs.electronicnewsnetwork.com/sacha-cohen/index.php, Cohen's Borat character was around for years before Mahir's site showed up.

What ever happened to the law suit?

from Vfd

On 3 Mar 2005, this article was nominated for deletion. The result was keep. See Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion/Mahir Cagri for a record of the discussion. —Korath (Talk) 15:47, Mar 17, 2005 (UTC)

  • Yay, the system works! Tempshill 05:26, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • It could do with some work, though. There's almost nothing about Mr Cagri himself - his webpage said that he was a professional journalist, music and sport teacher, and doctor of psychology, which could of course be nonsense, but if true would probably make him notable in his own right, even without the cult craze. -Ashley Pomeroy 14:15, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

ESC

When Sweden was arranging the Eurovision Song Contest, they had the Mahir Cagri webpage as an introduction to Turkey, (mostly to show that Sweden was a high-tech country with a lot of computerization.)

Meta-web?

At the San Francisco appearance, Mahir was led through a meta-web of scenes from his webpage...

What is a meta-web? Could there be some confusion with the San Francisco based company named Metaweb? -- Peter 16:44, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

I LIEK MILK

There's a webpage that's been around for years which is like a Japanese version of this - . They're suspiciously similar in style.--h i s r e s e a r c h 05:57, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

It just looks like the I LIEK MILK thing was another early internet meme of the same kind, but not a notable one.--h i s r e s e a r c h 05:59, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
