File:TAI, TC-VCH, TAI-HURKUS-A (34839092714).jpg

Hi, I was just reviewing your rename request on the file File:TAI, TC-VCH, TAI-HURKUS-A (34839092714).jpg and I notice that the image caption on the English Wikipedia denotes this as a Hurkus-C. Do you have any idea whether this is in fact a A or a C model? It seems the Hurkus-A was produced for civilian use while the Hurkus-C was produced for military use. TommyG (talk) 18:42, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Hello @TommyG. According to this news, the plane exhibited at the Paris Air Show 2017 was a Hürkuş-C.: https://www.savunmahaber.com/hurkus-paris-air-showda-ucus-gosterisi-yapacak/ --ToprakM 18:48, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Anlam ayrımı

Selamlar. Bana mesaj gelmiş de bu kategorinin tartışması için. Buradan yazayım :D İngilizce Vikipedi'de olduğu gibi eskiden bizde bazı alt anlam ayrımı şablonları vardı. Mesela yerleşim yerleri için, mesela kişiler için. "Bu anlam ayrımı sayfası, aynı adlı kişilerin sıralandığı bir anlam ayrımı sayfasıdır" gibisinden. Hiçbir getirisi yok, zaten bayağı bir çoğu da hem yerleşim yeri hem kişi hem de diğer maddeleri listeleyen anlam ayrımı sayfaları. Senin silinmeye aday gösterdiğin "anlam ayrımı sayfaları" kategorisi, aslında bu temalara göre ayrım yapma amacıyla kullanılmış İngilizce Vikipedi'de. "Tüm"lü olan da bu ayrımı yapmıyor, tamamını kategorilendiriyor. Bizde bu kategorilendirme olmadığından -ki tamamıyla anlamsız, gidip de "bilim temalı anlam ayrımı sayfaları" kategorisinde dolaşmak gibi bir saçmalık olmaz- birleştirme işlemi de doğal olarak doğru. "Tüm" kısmına gerek bile yok bence, direkt "anlam ayrımı sayfaları" adı altında birleştirilse, ama dil bağlantıları da "tüm"lü olana verilse yerinde olacaktır diye düşünüyorum. İyi günler :)--Nanahuatl (talk) 18:17, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Update request

Hello, ToprakM.

Can you color Azerbaijan only in light purple (Minority religion (1% - 5%), because Russian and Georgian Eastern Orthodox make up more than 1% of Azerbaijan's population), and get rid of the color pink of the (Oriental Orthodox Church, which the Armenian Apostolic Church is part of) in the duplicates File:Orthodoxy by Country.svg (and add the border of South Sudan, which needs to be colored in gray) and File:World Orthodoxy.JPG?

In September/October 2023, virtually all Armenians fled Nagorno-Karabakh. Only 24 Armenians initially remained in Nagorno-Karabakh after their exodus in 2023. The Armenian Apostolic Church was extinguished on the territory of Azerbaijan and the breakaway Nagorno-Karabakh Republic ceased to exist the same year. In total, at most only a few hundred Armenians are left in Azerbaijan after their first exodus in 1990.

Can you also get rid of the de facto border of the defunct Nagorno-Karabakh in File:Dioceses of the Syrian Orthodox Church.svg?

Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 18:41, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Thank you very much for updating the Syrian Orthodox Church Dioceses map.
Can you also update the two Orthodoxy maps as well?
Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 18:27, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
Hi @Oratas, sorry but I don't have time to do that. --ToprakM 18:31, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for the reply. I will ask other users, preferably Azeris or Turks, would might be receptive in updating them.
