Names[edit]

Can somebody explain to me why there is the Bulgarian name up there? Never in the last 700 years has there been a particular Bulgarian presence in or around the Marmara Sea. I really think that we are overdoing this whole alternate name thing, honestly. If there is no logical rationale I will remove it soon. Baristarim 00:46, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Try leaving a note on Vanka's talk page. Khoi khoi 01:04, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ok.. Why don't we all start speaking Esperanto or something? That way there would be no problems.. lol Baristarim 01:10, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OrIdo. ;-) Khoi khoi 01:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because Sea of Marmara is connected with bulgarian history very long before on this area to come turkish people... See article:Anatolian Bulgarians... Best regards --Pakko 19:28, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stumbling upon this old line of discussion, Pakko's comment made me smile since the word "Bulgar" is the name of a Turkic tribe and Bulgars were originally Slavisized Turkic people.

Pollution[edit]

The Sea of Marmara has been experiencing heavy pollution from both shipping and waste water treatment plants. Someone should add more about that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fjf1085 (talk • contribs) 23:49, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
