This article really, really needs to be sourced - doubly so since it's about a living person. Hardly any statement made here is attributed to any source. -- Schneelocke 12:01, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

How can he be a veteran of the Turkish Invasion of Cyprus which took place in 1974 and at the same time be born in 1980??
- Reply: Is the sentence "Özgür Dengiz was born to Satılmış, a non-commissioned officer and veteran of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, and Sultan, a seamstress." is not clear enough to indicate that not him but his father was in Cyprus? Please advise. CeeGee 21:47, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
Some other suggestions:
- Can a note be added to indicate how his name is pronounced?
- Reply: I tried it for you, but without warranty. œz̟ɟyɾ d̪enɟiz̟ CeeGee 21:47, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- "His mother opened a tailor shop for him; however, he did not stop by even briefly." -- This passage is awkward & unclear. Is the intent to say that his mother tried to find him work by opening a tailor shop for him? If so, what happened to the business when he did not participate?
- Reply: Is it really hard to understand that he was uninterested to work even in a business his mother created for him? Please advise. I guess the outcome of the tailor shop is irrelevant. CeeGee 21:47, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- "Dengiz killed Sedat Erzurumlu, a computer engineer, who angered him by saying they could not afford to buy the laptop they had been looking at." -- What was their relationship? The omission of information about their relationship inadvertently implies that they had a much closer relationship -- i.e., they were lovers. Some explanation about how they knew each other -- if Erzurumlu was the salesclerk at the store, or even if he simply was a stranger who happened by at the moment Dengiz was looking at the computer -- would be useful.
- Reply: Sorry, but at this moment being there is no further information available about the relationship between them. Maybe the upcoming trial will bring light into this. CeeGee 21:47, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- Taboos about cannibalism -- Almost all cultures have taboos about cannibalism; people are very uncomfortable about the possibility that a friend, family member -- or even a stranger -- may be sizing them up for lunch. I suspect that what is meant is that Turkey (& likely other Islamic countries) more strongly condemn cannibalism than non-Islamic societies. If this is so, it needs to be explained; there is no information at Cannibalism about this. -- llywrch 18:18, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
