Talk:Galata

message: This article says: There are several theories concerning the origin of the name Galata. According to the Italians, the name comes from Calata (meaning downward slope) as the neighbourhood is sloped and goes downwards to the sea from a hilltop. This etymology is correct! (others are not!)Böri (talk) 10:39, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It has been noticed that in several articles about Istanbul and its districts, history and places, you have a biased opinion against anything Greek. It makes sense that you are attempting to... validate the (more recent) Italian version of the etymology when its know that this area has been named Galata long time before the Latin Empire. Just makes lots of sense. :-)  --85.75.169.220 (talk) 15:26, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: File:Arap Camii San Paolo 1.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: There is no quarter called Galata in Istanbul, as the place is called Karaköy at present and there is an article for Karaköy in WP. This article should be redirected to Karaköy. Galata Köprüsü (bridge) and Galata Kulesi (tower) are the names of a historic bridge and a historic tower in Karaköy, but a place called Galata does not exist any more. Neither is Galata a common name for the modern place in English. (If it had been so we should have needed to redirect Karaköy to Galata; which is not the case.) --E4024 (talk) 15:39, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move request 

message: Yes, Pera is Beyoglu. (Who says it is not?) Karaköy (Galata) is a part of it. Write Pera in WP and it redirects you to Beyoğlu. You say the same thing with me but do the wrong edit. I do not know why: Do you feel there is an obligation to use a Greek word in every WP article on Turkey? It (Pera) is already used in Beyoğlu article as the "old" name of the district and has nothing to do here. So I have reverted your edit. --E4024 (talk) 23:13, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This is correct. The relation between Galata and Karaköy is the same as that between Constantinople and Istanbul. Writing about "the genoese citadel of Karaköy" would be an anachronism, but a topographic article about the neighborhood must have the name Karaköy: otherwise we should rename Bakirköy to Makrohori, Kumkapi to Kontoskalion and Yesilköy to San Stefano. :-) Of course, the title of the history paragraph dealing about the byzantine/genoese age can bear the name Galata, and if someone wants to write an history centered article about the quarter in the byzantine and levantine age (as Oliver Jens Schmitt superbly did in his "Levantiner"), the right title would be Galata.

thread_title:  Pera is (was) Beyoglu (To the concerned editor) 

message: I have removed the suggestion of "According to the Italians, the name comes from calata (meaning "downward slope"), as the neighbourhood is sloped and goes downwards to the sea from a hilltop." because it has no citation and sounds downright ludicrous and nationalistic that the Italian (Tuscan) language gave the origin to the name of a site in Thrace as the name was used long before the Italian modern language came into being. There is also no sources for any of the remaining theories on the name of the city, which I have left alone for now.
