Talk:Directorate of Religious Affairs

message: The "Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı" is not a ministry!
A ministry is "Bakanlık" and not "Başkanlık" (these are two different words)
The Başkan (word used in Turkish for a president or a chairman) is a muslim cleric and is not somebody elected, and is not part of the Parliament and surely not as part of the government. He is NOT A MINISTER! And this is not a ministry! The turkish state doesn't have a such ministry. This is an organisation attached directly to the prime minister. 
So, This translation is totally wrong.
It is more likely to call this organisation as a "Directorate"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Geyikpiri (talk • contribs) 14:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is a common mistake, also in Turkey. The original name, Diyanet İşleri Reisliği, was better in this respect. The institution was a successor to the Şer'iye ve Evkaf Vekâleti (also transliterated as Shar’iyya wa Awqaf), which actually was a ministry of the Ottoman government. Curiously enough, the English word "ministry" has several other meanings than "governmental department", some of which fit the non-governmental institution reasonably well.  --Lambiam 08:21, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  It is not a "ministry" 

message: How is it "liberal" to appoint women as preachers? Prophet Muhammed's wife Aisha was a preacher, so what the Diyanet is doing isn't anything new. I don't see how such a move is liberal. Rather, this liberal label is being attached to it because people lack sufficient knowledge on Islamic history and are likely to call anything liberal that they for whatever reason think is not generally acceptable in Islam -- whether justified or not. I suggest the "liberal" label be removed. Thank you.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.238.109.185 (talk) 20:27, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not traditional in Sunni Islam. The tradition may contradict some early reports, but that doesn't mean it is not the tradition. One of the routes of reform, of course, is to indicate a contradiction between the current tradition and an arguably older one. 2601:140:8900:61D0:D4DE:1AB4:5245:DC31 (talk) 22:51, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  liberal interpretation? 

message: Dispute over Diannaa's reverts of my edits  (edit summary: "paraphrase and remove copyright content copied from http://www.turkeyanalyst.org/publications/turkey-analyst-articles/item/463-the-rise-of-diyanet-the-politicization-of-turkey%E2%80%99s-directorate-of-religious-affairs.html") <Br>
(Part of the dispute was that Diannaa had blocked off links to the old edits so they were inaccessible from the article history. That has been undone, they are now accessible.)
Pasted from Diannaa's talk page:

Much of the alleged copyright violation was in quotes. And much of the edits you have annihilated were not even alleged violations. Now I can't even go back and look at what I've written to redo the edits! Isn't this a bit heavy handed?  --BoogaLouie (talk) 02:10, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: None of what I removed was in quotes. I left off doing the revision deletion and offered you a link to the copyvio report at 01:48 so you could check my work. Your response was to re-add the copy vio, so I went ahead with the revision deletion at 01:59. — Diannaa (talk) 02:13, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I was wrong about the quotes (or at least much of them), none the less a great deal of what you have not just reverted but destroyed was rewriting for clarity, form, grammar etc. and had nothing to do with text from  the turkeyanalyst story.  Now impossible to go back retrieve it. BoogaLouie (talk) 02:22, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

text: I might add I was unaware you were an admin at first. --BoogaLouie (talk) 02:24, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I did not revert; I selectively and carefully removed only the copyright material. The revision deletion is a separate transaction which hides the intervening diffs. Not all the content in those diffs was reverted. — Diannaa (talk) 02:40, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Much rewriting having nothing to do with copyright has been removed. If you will allow me access to it I make   improvments to the writing of the article  that will have nothing to do with copyrighted material. --BoogaLouie (talk) 02:44, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It is possibly the material in your edits of 01:36 and 01:40 were lost in the process as there was an edit conflict. I have temporarily undone the revision deletion so that you can check my work and re-do the two lost edits. The copyvios report will be visible again, where you will be able to see the comparison between the source web page and revision 731855691. Here is a link to the copyvio report. Please do not re-add any of the copyright material. All content you add to this wiki has to be written in your own words. — Diannaa (talk) 02:53, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

text: I have done my best to repair the material that was lost in the edit conflict. Sorry about that, it initially looked to me like just a small edit but I see it was actually quite a bit of stuff. Sorry. — Diannaa (talk) 03:43, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  ''Presidency of Religious Affairs:'' 

message: The Fatawa section mentions a good overview but I think we should have a subsection for the ones which encountered controversy like the dad-daughter issue.
Also there is no mention against the prohibition against hand-holding for engaged couples. From what I read that came out around the same time but got less focus due to its proximity to the more controversial issue. Ranze (talk) 10:04, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversies 

message: Page 59 of "The Emancipation of Europe's Muslims: The State's Role in Minority Integration" uses DIB to refer to this group. I am thinking of sourcing that to support a parenthesized initialism. Any objections? Ranze (talk) 10:16, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
