Capacity of 63,000 or 37,500 people

@Resnjari: I have performed a partial reversion of your edit here. I noted that you referenced the 63,000 number to a source on Al Jazeera here published 4 May 2019, and I do thank you for your hard work in finding a source to do so. However, I reverted it and restored the capacity number to 37,500 (based upon a Christian Science Monitor source here dated 9 September 2016). I believe that you had nothing but the best of intentions when adding the source, but I am concerned the Al Jazeera source's support of a 63,000 number may be in fact a possible WP:REFLOOP (i.e., a source may have copied certain unsourced content from Wikipedia uncritically and republished it, and then that source is later used a reference for that content that was till then unsupported, making that particular content appear to now be supported by a source but is in fact actually circular reporting).

I say this because the "63,000" number was in fact inserted here on this page without an external reference in this diff on 8 March 2019. However, the Al Jazeera source was only published on 4 May 2019, a good two months after this unsupported number was inserted into this article. In addition, I cannot find sources earlier than 8 March 2019 that supports the number of 63,000. Therefore, it is quite possible that the Al Jazeera article may have copied it from this Wikipedia article, triggering the possible WP:REFLOOP. Once again, I thank you for your good effort in helping to improve Wikipedia, but it is only because of this particular concern of mine that I felt compelled to revert that particular item. I hope this helps explain my actions. Epistulae ad Familiares (talk) 11:02, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Epistulae ad Familiares:, there are heaps of reports about Çamlıca Mosque over the years. I found two Turkish news sources [1], [2] that publish in English and quotes the 63,000 number that predates the wiki edit which you refer too. The Al Jazeera report which used for the article sourced its content from Anadolu Agency, an International Turkish news organisation -its stated toward the end of the article. It does not appear that a WP:REFLOOP has occurred. When the Christian Science Monitor report was published in 2016 a lot has happened. The mosque complex was finally finished this year and opened in the past twenty four hours. Media currently reporting on the mosque are stating the 63,000 number.Resnjari (talk) 11:39, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Resnjari: It's funny that you mentioned that, because in the meantime I managed to find a Gulf Times report dated 8 March 2019 that directly quotes an official who states the capacity as 63,000 people, so I've just added it to the page and restored the number. In addition, with the sources that you've provided, I think the case can be closed now. Thanks! Epistulae ad Familiares (talk) 11:43, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Six pillars of islam?

I believe there are only 5. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.2.56.220 (talk) 19:07, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are five pillars of Islam and six pillars of faith (iman). So it's correct. 176.55.209.210 (talk) 09:46, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Articles on the architects

Someone should write the articles on the two female architects Bahar Mızrak and Hayriye Gül Totu. 46.31.118.94 (talk) 13:53, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
