The preceding "comments" super-heading is redundant and pretty much harmless tho confusing and distracting. (And this talk contib of mine would be redundant but for the
confusion, and may not help in ameliorating the distraction.)
It seems to have been included by a colleague who didn't yet have a comment to add, but wanted to be sure it was clear to us all that this talk page is for discussion on (i.e., commenting on and debating about) the accompanying article). I can't recall another talk page that started out that way, and no one should doubt that the purpose of a talkpage associated with a "Main" or "Article"
Namespace page is to support discussion of that corresponding article, in this case presently named
Geographical regions of Turkey.

There is something wrong about those regions maps. Regions of Turkey are divided according to geography. Here is an official map: [1]. Borders of the provinces aren't determinative. For instance, most of the Sivas province belongs to Eastern Anatolian Region, most of the Gaziantep province belongs to Mediterranean Region and almost half of Konya and Çankırı provinces belongs to the other regions. Because, as I've said before, geography is determinative here, not borders of the provinces. They are already called "Geographical Regions of Turkey" officially at schools.

As I tried to clarify in the article regions and provinces do not overlap. The first division is purely geographical while the second one is administrative. Both are official though.

25 Feb; 1.5 months elapse; 13 Apr; 5 weeks elapse; 20 May; 6 weeks elapse; 9 July; 6 years elapse,
and no one has made clear what things would be merged, nor shown interest in asserting an outcome.
I'm declaring the proposal
stillborn, and if i can find evidence that someone did something on the premise that their own proposal had succeeded (i think i recall 75% being called an effective consensus), i will consider declaring myself misled and think further.

Why did I change the name of this article from "Regions of Turkey" to "Geographical regions of Turkey"?
1. They are called as such in Turkish sources. Not just Turkish Wikipedia, but Turkish sources in general.
2. These regions are divided (primarily) by geography.
3. These regions should not be confused by other division of Turkey, such as
NUTS of Turkey. --
