This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report2 times. The weeks in which this happened:
In case one is asking me for the reason for my recent edits, I added mentions of the Turkish government and that of the TRNC not recognising the internationally recognised government of Cyprus and calling it the "Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus" and the "Greek Cypriot Administration" while citing the following sources:
My edits pertain to the names that the Turkish government and that of the TRNC commonly use to refer to the internationally recognised government of Cyprus and there are no better sources concerning their opinions and names about Cyprus than their own websites. - Hu753 (talk) 00:52, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
Never mind, I have found the proper place to add Türkiye's opinions and names for Cyprus with the relevant sources. - Hu753 (talk) 01:11, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
Just to make sure that the point is very, very clear: The Turkish viewpoint is a small sliver of the global viewpoint, and dedicating space to such a small subset of that one specific viewpoint violates NPOV:WP:UNDUE. 82.102.110.228 (talk) 17:36, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
The version you are talking about is not free; the copyright holder is the Cypriot state. The non-identical but heraldically correct version is the one that should be used in such cases. Pantarch (talk) 21:38, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
The article suffers from non-neutrality that stems from looking at the conflict as a bilateral, or quadrilateral conflict. I ask the editors to zoom out and see that there is a global consensus that the Turkish occupation is illegal, and that the declaration of independence of the occupied territory has been condemned by the United Nations. As per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV one may attribute these statements to the United Nations themselves. Please do not water down the statements, as that is a violation of NPOV: WP:IMPARTIAL and NPOV: WP:UNDUE, as only Turkey wishes to make claims to the contrary. Consider that NPOV: WP:DUE asks that the representation of the viewpoints matches the weight of the ones having the viewpoint, and the United Nations has the collective weight of 192 countries besides Turkey. Thus, as per NPOV: WP:DUE the article should take the position of the United Nations and delegate any Turkish specifications to footnotes.
Once again, the United Nations take precedence over Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, or the EU. Please make sure that the article abides by the following UN resolutions:
UN Security Council Resolution 186 (1964): Reaffirms the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus over the entire island.
UN General Assembly Resolution 3212 (1974): Demands the withdrawal of all foreign military forces from the island, rendering the Turkish occupation globally condemnable.
UN Security Council Resolution 541 (1983): Condemns the unilateral declaration of independence, and establishes the lack of legal and political illegitimacy of the TRNC.
UN Security Council Resolution 550 (1984): Condemns attempts to settle any part of Varosha (Famagusta) by anyone other than its lawful inhabitants.
UN Security Council Resolution 1251 (1999): Calls for a bicommunal, bizonal federation as a basis for a solution.
In summary, please make sure that your edits reflect the global condemnation of Turkish actions on the island as per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and NPOV: WP:DUE, and delegate pro-Turkey opinions as per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and WP:UNDUE. 82.102.110.228 (talk) 17:28, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
