Parliamentary System?

As of the last presidential elections, since the president is now elected directly (popular vote) by the people, the Republic of Turkey is no longer a parliamentary republic, it is a semi-presidential republic (not to be mistaken with a presidential system, semi-presidential is different) This needs to be updated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.60.224.128 ( talk) 02:45, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

The IP may be correct here. Anyone want to look into this? Étienne Dolet ( talk) 08:57, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
Turkey is a 'parliamentary republic with a ceremonial president, where the prime minister is the executive.' but what you're saying will become true in following months. President's powers will be extended. Turkey's system will change into 'semi-presidential' which will evolve into full 'presidential' system. But like I said currently Turkey has a president with ceremonial role. kazekagetr 14:45, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
Everything depends on the definition of semi-presidentialism. If to define a republic as semi-presidential it is enough the popular election of the president, then Turkey is already a semi-presidential state: if - besides that - also additional powers of the president are needed, then it is not (yet).

The proper definition includes that 'active' role rather than 'ceremonial' one I believe. But as i said, it will fit in that semi-presidential definition surely. kazekagetr 22:43, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
