Expansion[edit]

Hey S0091, thanks for expanding the article. Can you reply to this message when you are done? I found some Turkish sources that I want to add as well, but I'd rather not edit conflict. :) Thanks. Styyx (talk) 17:48, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Have at it, @Styyx! Because most of the sources are in Turkish which I do not know, I am hesitant to expand much because I have to rely on Google Translate. I will stop so you can expand and feel free to amend anything I have done. S0091 (talk) 18:01, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
