[edit] Ali Tavsanoglu

Vanity, etc. See Google results.[1] (or rather, don't see, if you get the point)

• Delete per nod Mad Jack O'Lantern 17:47, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No evidence of notability claims. If he was "eminent" in his field, Google would surely have more results. OhNoitsJamie^Talk 17:48, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

You mean "more results" than zero? :) Mad Jack O'Lantern 17:49, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

A lot of these former financiers like to remain anonymous however, take Driss Ben-Brahim (former head of Goldman Sachs Exotic Trading Desk), for instance.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.107.126.235 (talk • contribs).

Well, I'm glad to see his wishes are so important to you. Danny Lilithborne 22:08, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment In other words, totally unverifiable. - Fan1967 17:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unverifiable because it's complete rubbish. IEEE knows nothing about a "A Tavsanoglu", (though it knows plenty about Vedat Tavsanoglu, who really was a prominent electronc engineer). The current VP of IEEE is Moshe Kam. Goldman Sachs has never heard of him either. Someone with an overdeveloped fantasy life. DJ Clayworth 18:06, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Comment written about IEEE was incorrect, however he is the son of Vedat Tavsanoglu. They have worked together on numerous publications. Goldman Sachs is not a person, it is regarded as being one of the leading investment banks in the world.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tavsanav (talk • contribs).

• Question Can you verify any of this, from a reliable source. You would think someone with all those accomplishments, who had dated Jennifer Anniston and Denise Richards, would have appeared in print somewhere, if it were true. Fan1967 18:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Note. Per Google scholar, Vedat Tavsanoglu has published about 15 papers since 2000. None show a co-author named Tavsanoglu. Fan1967 18:55, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

When Ali Tavsanoglu was dating Jennifer Aniston and Denise Richards were minor celebrities at that time. So there is no possible way of verifying this. About the publications, Ali Tavsanoglu's initials are A V Tavsanoglu. So this is why it may get a bit confusing on the publications.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tavsanav (talk • contribs).

• Comment It's not confusing at all. The citations are perfectly clear: "V Tavsonoglu" with no "A" and no co-author who shares the same last name. Fan1967 19:10, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Did Ali Tavsanoglu know Doris Day before she was a virgin, too? (I really hope people get this reference) Mad Jack O'Lantern 19:07, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Oscar Levant. Fan1967 19:11, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

What more evidence do you want? THEY WERE MINOR CELEBRITIES. If you really want to know ask Jennifer Aniston or Denise Richards. About the publications, my middle initial is always when publishing papers. This is a cultural thing. You won't understand unless you are turkish.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tavsanav (talk • contribs).

• Comment But you claim you coauthored them with your father. If that were so, there would be two Tavsanoglus listed. There aren't, just like IEEE never had a vice-president by that name. Fan1967 19:20, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Plus V. Tavsanoglu's name is given in full here, and it is not Ali. If you really are the son of Vedat Tavsanoglu I hope he's pleased that you are claiming to author his papers. DJ Clayworth 19:26, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Mate, you don't know how publications are done. And of course he is proud of me.

User:Tavsanav has started inserting his own name into articles like Doris Day and The O.C. so I think we can forget about any idea that he is actually telling the truth. DJ Clayworth 19:30, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Comment Clearly, that ship has sailed. Probably a schoolkid with nothing better to do. Fan1967 19:31, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Inserted into Doris Day! lol! Sorry I gave him the idea. I better not mention any more Wikipedia articles around this guy Mad Jack O'Lantern 19:35, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

You guys are sad for trying to prove this shit. You don't have a life and don't even get paid for this stuff. And if you do you can just buy a piece of bread with it. LOSERS.

We don't have a life? We're not the ones inventing fantasies about dating Jennifer Anniston, now, are we? Fan1967 19:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

suck a dick

Can somebody block this guy for personal attacks already? I'm getting kinda bored Mad Jack O'Lantern 19:49, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

While we're at it, can someone e-mail the exchange to Dad? Looks like his university e-mail is available on the web. Fan1967 19:53, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

The sooner you accept the truth the better - if I provided pictures would that suit you?

• Delete Ali Tavsanoglu was dating Jennifer Aniston notability is not contagious. so delete Jennifer Aniston. Sorry I'm getting confused here. Delete per nom. Dlyons493 Talk 20:18, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Don't delete Jennifer Aniston, she's already had a rough year. :):):) Mad Jack 20:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nothing more than a generic name dropper. Danny Lilithborne 22:08, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as sad student fantasy Bwithh 23:49, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
