Talk:High-speed rail in Turkey

message: I made this change  for two reasons - firstly to link to KTX-II rather than the link to a temporary article - when article "KTX-II" exists it will not then be necessary to change all the redirects to  Korea Train Express#New Rolling Stock.
I put the images next to the relevent sections because
1. That's the general way to do things.
2  On some browsers the long list of images without breaks causes display problems.Shortfatlad (talk) 13:16, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Explanation of edit

message: rational - HSR-350x is a korean prototype and seems unlikely to enter series production anywhere, also can't find any evidence for KTX-II being produced at EUROTEM plant, or that the train will be used in turkey, or is on order for turkey.
If anyone has the info please supply details. Thanks.Shortfatlad (talk) 19:35, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The engineering section seems problematic. It states "All high-speed railways being constructed in Turkey are double tracked, electrified, without level crossing, having ETCS signalization and meeting ATS, ERTMS, ATMS, SICAS and ATP standards.[3]"
The reference [3] is to a document that is not available on-line, so it can't be confirmed.
Its states "being constructed". Does this therefore mean only new high-speed lines from now on? And if this does includes high-speed lines currently operational, does it mean "dedicated high-speed lines"? The Başkentray which is part of both the Ankara-Istanbul and the Ankara-Konya lines appears to be a multi-use line (high-speed, conventional and freight) with level crossings (https://www.thalesgroup.com/en/worldwide/transportation/press-release/turkish-state-railways-modernise-36-kilometre-section-through) and, after the Marşandiz Accident, has been shown to definitely not have an ETCS standard signalling system.
Also, "ETCS signalization and meeting ATS, ERTMS, ATMS, SICAS and ATP standards" doesn't mean much. The ETCS is the signalling and control component of the ERTMS. You could describe both as being Standards, to which the signalling system is built. The ETCS includes ATP and ATS which are not standards; the ERTMS is a type of ATMS which is not a standard; and SICAS appears to be a Siemens product.

thread_title:  Engineering Section seems problematic 

message: "TCDD has branded its high-speed service as Yüksek Hızlı Tren (YHT) which currently operates on three lines" might make the readers think that YHT is operated by TCDD wheras it is operated by TCDD Taşımacılık.
Or they might get the impression that TCDD Taşımacılık is a subsidiary of TCDD which as far as I know it is not.
Any ideas for improving the sentence and also maybe adding clarifying hatnotes to this article and the Yüksek Hızlı Tren article? Chidgk1 (talk) 14:20, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misleading 2nd sentence? 

message: To reduce duplication between this article and Yüksek Hızlı Tren should there be excerpts? If so what? 
Also should some text be moved between articles - for example the sections on "Operation and rolling stock" and "High-speed train sets and production facilities" should maybe be moved from here to there. 
And maybe the sections "Lines under construction", "Lines under planning" and "Related infrastructure projects" should be moved from there to here? Chidgk1 (talk) 14:34, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
