• Much of this article checks out, but there are a multitude of grammar and (minor) spelling errors that make it look like a mechanical translation. Also "considered...the first female jazz pianist" is likely an artifact of the same, as either she is the first or she isn't - it's an objective matter, not subjective. This needs a copyedit pass before it can be considered for the front page. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 02:41, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @CeeGee: Much better grammar-wise now. I'm still not sure about "considered to be" - would removing those words from the hook work (i.e. making it a definitive statement "is the first") or is there something in the Turkish language sources about that being uncertain? - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 07:33, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• She is "the first ..." according to sources. I thought "considered" might be more acceptable. CeeGee 16:59, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• "Considered" makes it seem ambiguous, which is why I was concerned. The below works. Thanks for being patient about this! - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 23:14, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
