Talk:List of bridges in Turkey

Aqueducts and bridges

Aspendos Aqueduct inverted siphon, Valens Aqueduct and İncekaya Aqueduct are considered as bridges like the Pont du Gard in France (see the article Aqueduct (bridge)). This list mention particular structures on whole aqueducts that conveying water as the Pont du Gard in France is a part of the whole Nîmes Aqueduct. Maybe, for the Valens Aqueduct for example, this list would mention "Valens Bridge" to be clearer, but I don't think it's useful to have two articles "Valens Aqueduct" and "Valens Aqueduct Bridge".

Articles about Valens Aqueduct and İncekaya Aqueduct mainly talk about bridges parts while main subjects are whole structures.

An almost "complete" list like the fr:list of bridges in France mention some structures very different than classic bridges (like transporter bridges or very strange structures like the fr:Pont roulant de Saint-Malo à Saint-Servan).

That's why I included these three "aqueduct bridges" in this list instead of create a list of aqueduct bridges in Turkey. In Italy too, there're some aqueduct bridges that would be in bridges lists as they are used as footbridges too (like Aqueduct of Vanvitelli or Pont d'Aël). Glabb (talk) 18:03, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

• Well aqueducts are not bridges. But if desired, aqueducts can be listed separatelly under the heading aqueducts in Turkey. Cheers. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 06:43, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

The photo of Çanakkale Bridge is a copyrighted picture, the template clearly says :"solely to illustrate the proposed building in question", so this photo has to be only on the main article, not on all secondary articles. Also, this is an old rendering with bad quality, there're few encyclopedic interests for this photo.

Night views are not welcome here because the interesting part is the structure itself, not the lightening. Most of serious bridges technical books, papers or publications show photos not taken at night, as lists of monuments on Wikipedia do. Please do a list of bridge lightnings if you want such presentation, Wikipedia recommend to use the most neutral photo as possible, so night views, HDR photos and conceptual photos are more interesting on Flickr's albums than Wikipedia.

The miniature has to permit to recognized the bridge easily, the previous photos were chosen to show particularities fastly recognizable on miniatures. The 3 big Bosphorus bridges are absolutely not recognizable between them on the new photos, what is the interest of this choice here? The 2 first Bosphorus bridges can be distinguished by their towers, photos chosen shown clearly this difference, otherwise it's difficult to recognize these two bridges on all photos on the web.

The order of "historic bridges" and "major bridges" use the same frame as all list of bridges in the world, so historic bridges first. Again, most of bridges technical books do the same order.

And finally, I take hours and hours to do these lists, this kind of presentation is the best way for me to list all bridges in the world, please, if you want to improve it, add new bridges, correct datas, add sources, add new photos, or propose new ideas on talk page but don't do up to you just because it's more "beautiful". I have consulted a lot of Wikipedia recommandations, and the only fact that you put fair use photos and night views is clearly not in accordance with main principles of presentation of Wikipedia. --Glabb (talk) 10:02, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
