Dearie me, that is an unfortunate photo of Mr Denktash we have there. I'll grant he's no prettyboy, but shouldn't we have something a bit more formal? The one on
Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus seems rather more appropriate. Comments?

Paphos is not located in the north of Cyprus. It's right next to the Akamas peninsula, which is the southernmost point of the island.

I plan to make a few additions to this article shortly. If you want to fix my English, or make additions yourself. I'd appreciate you wait until Monday. Thanks. ato 04:04, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I think I am done for now. I used information from the cited external links and History of Cyprus. This site contains a lot of information as well. ato 01:44, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
"Turkish Government has interfered with the election process from the lowest to the highest possible degree. In 1981 parliamentary elections three opposition parties won 21 out of 40 seats and declared immediately that they would be ready to form a coalition. Therefore, the main opposition party (Communal Liberation Party , then presided by Alpay Durduran) was supposed to be given the duty to form the government. However, the president declined to obey the tradition and both military and civilian officials from the then military dictatorship in Turkey interfered and did not allow a government to be formed until two of the opposition MPs left the coalition and joined the ruling party for a coalition. This example shows an interference to the electoral process from the highest degree." From http://www.cyprusaction.org/humanrights/elections/ . I'm sure you can get much more info on this in turkish.

[INTERCOMMUNAL TALKS: At the end of 1968 Denktash arrived secretly on the Island and after a short detention by the authorities he was released in a bid to start talks for resolving the constitutional problem of the Republic.Intercommunal talks between the Chairman of the House of Representatives, Glafkos Clerides and Rauf Denktash went on for a number of years, in an effort to reach a negotiated settlement for establishing a unitary state. When a settlement was reportedly in sight, Rauf Denktash brought the talks to an end, when he announced that the two sides were attaching completely different meanings to the term "unitary state" ].
A text of this nature is needed in order to cover two points. First, the fact that Rauf Denktash was not banned from entering the island during the whole period leading to the Turkish invasio, as the article may lead one to conclude, and Second, that the different interpretation of the term "unitary state" by the interlocutors was not but a pretext, as the meaning of the term negotiated upon, was the first thing that should have been agreed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.228.112.194 ( talk) 17:09, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi please can someone add his middle name in the intro, it should be Rauf Raif Denktas. [1] [2]

- Struck edit request by blocked sock. IamNotU ( talk) 16:38, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
I have undone the requested edit. The request was made by a blocked, long-term-abusive user who is not allowed to edit Wikipedia. See WP:BLOCKEVASION and WP:BMB. Please check any similar requests before granting them, thanks. -- IamNotU ( talk) 16:55, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
I have also reverted the replacement of this edit by GGT, as it's clearly a reinstatement of an edit made on behalf of a blocked user, and I believe it falls under the rules of WP:BLOCKEVASION: "Anyone is free to revert any edits made in violation of a block, without giving any further reason and without regard to the three-revert rule." In any case, I've reverted a bold edit, which means it doesn't have consensus. I do understand GGT's position that "the fact that he's blocked doesn't mean that the edit is actually incorrect", but this is addressed in WP:BMB. The article has stood for more than 15 years without this particular edit, and there is WP:NORUSH to make it now. I feel that the potential disruption and damage to Wikipedia, by creating a precedent to accept edits from Shingling334, as long as his edits are "good", is not worth any potential improvement such edits could make.
As noted in WP:BMB, when edits by blocked/banned users "force editors into the paradox of either allowing banned editing or removing good content", the latter course should be taken. Please understand that this isn't just a bureaucratic exercise. The hope is that this user will eventually stop their disruptive/deceptive practices once they realize that all their edits are reverted, without exception - similar to the concept of WP:RBI. If instead they are given the message that they only need to convince another editor to support them, they will redouble their efforts and disruption. Taking the long view, I believe it's in the best interest of Wikipedia, and particularly in having accurate, unbiased articles about Turkey and Northern Cyprus, and a good-faith environment for other editors, not to let any of this user's edits stand. If there are other discussions relevant to this, please let me know, as I'm happy to consider them. Thanks. -- IamNotU ( talk) 16:39, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I believe the following sentence to be at best unsourced, at worst totally false: "After the 15 July 1974 Greek ultra-nationalist military coup in Cyprus, massacres began against the Turkish Cypriot population already confined into enclaves." Can someone with access to the appropriate sources verify? I found absolutely nothing in support of such massacres, so for the time being, I simplified the sentence into "After the 15 July 1974 Greek ultra-nationalist military coup in Cyprus, fearing for the safety of the Turkish Cypriot population, ...".
