Is there an accepted protocol on whether links of this type belong in articles on public officials? Ellsworth 17:44, 3 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Everybody who took the ECON202 (introduction to macroeconomics) course can understand that the clear development which you are talking about is actually the collapse of the Turkish economy in the long term. Just like Benjamin Franklin said "They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security". Deliogul 09:17, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Martial status? Religion? Children? Etc? Where is all the usual info about key figures?Tourskin 05:39, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: From the article: "On August 21, 1980, Abdullah Gül married Hayrünnisa Özyurt (b. 1965) and the couple has three children, two sons named Mehmet Emre and Ahmet Münir and a daughter named Kübra" We even have the wedding date, which is probably unnecessary. I don't see why stating his religion is necessary (laicite) but he is most likely Muslim, considering his past (he is certainly nominally Muslim). DenizTC 11:50, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Statistics? 

message: The article currently has this sentence, in the "presidential candidacy" section
:But a few days later, on May 11 when inquired after the alterations to the Turkish constitution which now allowed the people to elect the president directly rather than a parliamentary vote, Gül announced that he was still intending to run on May 6.
How could he have announced on May 11 that he was intending to run on May 6? --Delirium 22:08, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Türk işi bu. Çok umrumda değil ama adamı pedofil olarak damgalamak istiyor gibisiniz.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.99.201.4 (talk) 05:32, August 30, 2007 (UTC) 
:Actually, love has no boundaries but you have to understand that the age difference and the age of his wife during the time of their marriage is somehow strange. Deliogul 09:19, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Article is about Abdullah Gul , and his all life, his mentality, and his friends.. You can add anything that concerns him..  —Preceding unsigned comment added by onur 
I find it strange that you are not disturbed by the fact that he married a child half his age, but rather by people merely stating that fact. And I don't think he is a pedophile either, he is probably just following his prophet's example. Kvorakir 14:20, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Kvorakir, your statement about Muhammed can make religiously sensitive people angry. While, many Turkish people find marrying a child weird and even sick, for a considerable amount of people, it is just a "tradition". I have to add that some traditions of every culture can be impossible to understand or justify in modern understanding. Whatever, we have to mention that Gül was married with a child and we don't have to take this discussion further. Deliogul 15:49, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was angry, because some people are trying to make their leaders look good by hiding unpleasant facts about them. And some of these people (like the anonymous user above) accuse the writers of sullying their leaders. But you are right; I shouldn't have mentioned Mohammed's wife. WP is not the place for such a discussion. I am not going to further comment on that issue, unless someone removes that section again. Kvorakir 07:32, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This is just plain and simple fact. Abdullah Gul married his wife when she was fifteen years old. Censoring this bit of information is a violation of Wikipedia's neutrality and freedom of speech. Sorry folks.
At the end of the day it was a bona fide marriage hence I don't see any wrong. He saw his future wife, went and asked the girls parents for her hand and followed all the traditional steps. We see this sort of thing in Hollywood everyday. Except in Hollywood the legitimacy of the marriage is in question. It is usually a wealthy man who marries a girl old enough to be his daughter.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.209.236 (talk) 10:20, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Hasn't this been out there long enough? BCapp 10:07, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: People waited it to happen so desperately. This is why they can't stop celebrations. They say it is the beginning of a bright future, I say it is the first move of a war. Whatever, let them parade in streets when they can ;) Deliogul 21:17, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: File:11.President Repuclic Of Turkey.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: It has turned out that the Republic President Abdullah Gül, who is a friend of Dictator Erdoğan, was the one who reduced the tension and prevented deaths of thousands by the order of the dictator on 29 October 2012, in the Republic Day of Turkey. Dictator Erdoğan gave the police and the Governor of Ankara the order "TO KILL CIVILIANS IF NECESSARY" . President Gül cancelled the "KILL ORDER". Dictator Erdoğan gets more and more bloodthirsty these days.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Inspectortr (talk • contribs) 17:48, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
