I work for Yahya Kemal College and therefore have a professional connection to the subject of this article.
The current article contains outdated information, obsolete school-unit details, promotional wording and old external links. I am not requesting the removal of criticism or the addition of advertising language.
I would like to propose a complete factual and neutral rewrite based on reliable sources. The proposed version would:
- remove promotional sections such as aims, mission and goals;
- update the institution’s current educational units and official website;
- retain only verifiable information about its history, locations and educational structure;
- include independent sources wherever available;
- clearly distinguish official institutional information from independent reporting.
Because of my connection to the institution, I am requesting review and implementation by an uninvolved Wikipedia editor rather than editing the article directly.
I can provide the proposed replacement text and the supporting sources here for review. Thank you. ~2026-39018-94 (talk) 00:52, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

Close
- The existing article contains outdated branch information, unsupported promotional claims and language that has previously been criticised on this talk page. The proposed version removes claims such as “first and biggest private educational institution”, removes promotional commentary about the school’s success, updates the current locations and official website, and retains only concise factual information.
- The institutional sources are used primarily to support basic information about the school and to establish the school connection of the named individuals. The University of Cambridge and FIDE sources support their professional and competitive credentials. No testimonial quotations or claims about the quality of the school are being proposed.
- This request concerns the article text and external links only. I am not requesting any change to the existing categories at this stage.
- I work for Yahya Kemal College and therefore have a conflict of interest. I am requesting that an uninvolved editor review and implement the proposed wording rather than editing the article directly.
