No worries. If there any other tables you'd want me to make on other football players, feel free to ask, but the mark-up is pretty easy to steal. Bobo192 17:20, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
Signing comments[edit]
Hey man, I noticed that when you leave comments you sign your name by typing it out, I just thought you might like to know if you type four tildes (~~~~) it signs and dates your comment automatically. Alexforcefive 01:18, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
PS I left a comment for you on the list of emo bands talk page!
Welcome![edit]
Hi CanbekEsen!
You seem to have been around quite long. Sooner or later, everyone should get a welcome. So here goes!
Thank you for your very valuable contributions to Wikipedia, and a very warm welcome to the community! We're always grateful to have new people joining in and contributing with improvements to the encyclopedia. Here are a few suggestions to work your way around:
- Do have a look at The five pillars of Wikipedia
- I'm sure the tutorial will be of great help, as will reading How to edit a page
- The Manual of Style has tips on making Wikipedia articles look consistent
- You might also like to read How to write a great article and maybe the picture tutorial if you're interested in adding images to your articles
- The help page contains loads of, well, helpful information
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Do remember to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), which will automatically produce your name and the datestamp. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or feel free to contact me.
I just came across all the work that you've done on the biography pages of Turkish footballers. Good job! There are just a few things I thought I should tell you about. You can add relevant categories on the articles you create to make them easy to locate. You can also use sub-headings for titles like "Statistics" or "Previous clubs". An explanation of how to use sub-headings is given in How to edit a page. You can also have a look at the edits I just made on Serdar Kulbilge for an example.
Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! -Aabha (talk) 19:57, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- You're most welcome! :) Would you like to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Football? -Aabha (talk) 17:10, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
- Well, have a look at the project page and add yourself to the participant list. By the way, I'm planning to work on making Fenerbahçe SK a better article than it currently is. Now, I do not know too much about its history and other details, so I've asked some other users for help, and we're making it a collaborative effort. Would you like to join in? The "History" and "Embelm" sections of the article are direct copyviolations from the official club site, and hence will need to be rewritten. Thats what we're going to begin with first. -Aabha (talk) 18:22, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
Fenerbahçe SK[edit]
Hey Can!
Wow, that was fast! Good job, I must say. I'll just wikify them, and I think we're done with those portions of the article. Well, well begun is half the job done. -Aabha (talk) 06:30, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hey! Thanks for all those details..have a look at the table now..is it worth keeping? -Aabha (talk) 06:59, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey Can,
The football project is starting a football Article Improvement Drive. This is a weekly collaboration to improve football (soccer) articles to featured article status. Articles to be improved can be nominated by registered users, with an explanation of what work is needed. Each Sunday, the article with the most support votes is chosen and then worked on to make it better than what it is. Do take part in it, you already have experience of leaving articles better than you saw them first. ;-) -Aabha (talk) 10:53, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
ps I made a little change on your userpage regarding the link to the Turkey national football team. Hope you don't mind!
Pictures[edit]
Hi!
I added the "logo" tag to Image:Eskisehirspors.png. Logos of sports teams are supposed to be fair use, so can be used here. Do mention the address of the website you got it from, if you can. Then we can remove the "unknown website" tag. Also, the footballer pictures that you've uploaded..are you sure they're allowed to be used here? We can't violate any copyrights, just as the use of that copyrighted text on the Fenerbahce page was not right. They might be deleted soon if you don't provide more information, so I just thought I should let you know so they could be saved, incase their use is right. You should provide as much info as possible for any image that you upload. Read the Wikipedia:Image use policy, I know it looks a bit boring, but its really helpful. -Aabha (talk) 09:39, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Fujisawa Hideyuki[edit]
What did he play? The article doesn't say. --Deville 20:26, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Much better! Now it makes at least some sense to me :) --Deville 20:38, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
About the expression of birth date[edit]
Hi, many thanks for your great contributions to the articles related to Go game! I notice that you may not be very familiar with the form of birth date for wiki artilces. Usually the birth date is put in the brackets after the name. You may refer to the Wiki manual of style for biographies for more information. Thank you very much again. --Neo-Jay 02:54, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi, many thanks again for your contributions to the Go articles. I notice that you create many new articles about the honorable titles, such as Honorary Judan, Honorary Gosei, Honorary Meijin, etc. If the content is not very long, I think that we may put it as a section into the articles of the relevant go competitions, not establish a new article. What do you think of it？ Many thanks. --Neo-Jay 00:17, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Citing sources[edit]
Hello, and thank you for your contributions. When contributing material to Wikipedia, please cite your sources so others can verify your work. For example, citing book, print, or reliable web resources demonstrates that the material is verifiable and is not the editor's opinion. Please see Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Reliable sources for more information, or contact me on my talk page. Perfecto 04:46, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
Edit summary[edit]
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.
Perfecto 04:46, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Suggest merging Takagawa Shukaku to Takagawa Kaku[edit]
Hi, Can. I suggest merging the article Takagawa Shukaku, which you just created, into the article Takagawa Kaku. I have described the reasons on the Discussion Page. Thanks for your contributions. --Neo-Jay 19:39, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Can. Please reply to the merge request. I think it would be better if you, not other ones, merge Takagawa Shukaku into Takagawa Kaku since you are the main contributor who provide the valuable new information in the new article. Thank you. --Neo-Jay 22:22, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
I am sorry that Takagawa Shukaku has been merged by someone else. Thanks for your contributions. --Neo-Jay 01:41, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi,
We started a proposal Wikipedia:Wikiethics to state the existing policies coherently and make suggestions on improving the editorial standards in Wiki. I thought you might be interested in contributing to that proposal.
Unfortunately, a pro-porn and pro-offense lobby is trying to make this proposal a failure. They unilaterally started an approval poll although almost no one including me believe that it is time for a vote, simply because the policy is not ready. It is not even written completely.
Editors who thinks that the policy needs to be improved rather than killed by an unfair poll at the beginning of the proposal, started another poll ('Do we really need a poll at this stage?') at the same time. The poll is vandalized for a while but it is stable now. A NO vote on this ('Do we really need a poll now?') poll will strengthen the position of the editors who are willing to improve the ethics policy further.
If you have concerns about the ethics and editorial standards in Wiki, please visit the page Wikipedia:Wikiethics with your suggestions on the policy. We have two subpages: Arguments and Sections. You might want to consider reviewing these pages as well...
Thanks in advance. Resid Gulerdem 21:28, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

It's all good. Besides, I kinda missed reverting vandalism on those two pages, there used to be so much and there just have't been any good ones lately. :) JackO'Lantern 19:06, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Category:Dyslexic Wikipedians[edit]
Category:Dyslexic Wikipedians which you have included on your user page has been proposed for deletion you can comment at Wikipedia:Categories for deletion#Category:Wikipedians by mental condition. --Salix alba (talk) 16:36, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi there, The Islam template is used in all Islam related articles and it carries an image of the mosque, if you take a close look at the other religion templates they all carry an icon that actually symbolizes the particular religion. The question is what symbolizes Islam? As a muslim you would agree that we cannot Idolize any symbol as sacred as it would be Shirk. So the next question is what kind of icon would correctly represent Islam and Muslims? It is undoubtedly the Shahada, because without it we wouldn't be muslims. So I have suggested to change the template image from a masjid to a Masjid with the Shahada in it. In order to have the image in the template I need build some consense, could you kindly visit the talk page (Template_talk:Islam) and make your suggestion, lets have the template change so it will correctly represent Islam. (You do not have to support it if you dont like it). thanks in advance. «₪Mÿš†íc₪» (T) 11:30, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
