  • ... that the railway management building, a museum (pictured) today, at the Ankara Central Station served for Mustafa Kemal as a residence and headquarters during the Turkish War of Independence?

  • Thank you very much for your review. I corrected the typos as listed by you. Thanks also for your advise on reading before submitting. One overlooks sometime typos in his own text. "Nobody is perfect". I wonder if there is more for copyediting. Please advise. I added ALT1 as your suggestion. I had omitted the surname of Mustafa Kenal in the original hook because he adopted it only after 1934, the enacting of the Surname Law in Turkey. About QPQ: "Nominator has made 4 DYKs, but also has Ecem Güzel in process." I couldn't understand what you mean. What does this DYK-nom to do with "Ecem Güzel" nom?

  • Hiya CeeGee, thanks for reply. Yes I agree nobody is perfect and we can miss a typo or two, but I still feel this could do with a copy edit, for example the times don't fit MOS:TIME and I'm not sure what "arched windows are artless" means. I'd be happy to help with copy-editing future articles but i don't think that's my job here.
  • Thank you for pointing out the issue with the "artless". I'm gonna fix it. This is due to my poor foreign language English knowledge. Besides, I don't ask you to copyedit at all, but it's helpful to know what is not in order. CeeGee 11:42, 10 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • ALT1 looks pretty good, I'm fine with the name going back to Mustafa Kemal if you feel it's more accurate, but since he is now known with surname I thought that was more appropriate. Can you add it below the original hook?
  • No problem. You could see at least the "The 200 DYK Creation and Expansion Medal" on my talk page. It is possible that "DYK check" reports only for the current year. Anyway, I hope your review is still in progress. CeeGee 17:28, 10 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
