Should we call this article the "Turkish police force", "Turkish National Police", or "General Directorate of Security"? The first is the first one the average reader would think of. The second is what we currently have. The third is the official one. I propose to have the first two redirect to the third; it is ugly, but official. I note that the Turkish WP usestr:Emniyet Genel Müdürlüğü (third one). --Adoniscik(t,c)00:49, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
GDS is the official name of the police force, just as theNational Intelligence Organization is the official name of the civilian intelligence agency. --Adoniscik(t,c)07:04, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The official English language website of the Emniyet Genel Müdürlüğü is turkishnationalpolice.gov.tr. This is their official English name. This trumps any and all debates over the "correct" translation of the Turkish name88.244.83.209 (talk)07:45, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The Turkish National Police (Turkish:Türk Polis Teşkilatı) is not the same thing as the General Directorate of Security (Turkish:Emniyet Genel Müdürlüğü), just as theGeneral Staff of the Republic of Turkey (Turkish:Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Genelkurmay Başkanlığı) is not the same thing as theTurkish Armed Forces (Turkish:Türk Silahlı Kuvvetleri). In both cases, the former smaller organizations preside over the latter larger organizations. --Mttll (talk)18:18, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

General Directorate of Security (Turkey) →General Directorate of SecurityGeneral Directorate of Security – I think we should remove the name Turkey in brackets because there is not any other organization with the same name.Katakana546 (talk)17:08, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
