[Facts] Re: Is it possible to update the Turkish popularity statistics?
I think Perrine got a little muddied up on that first sentence. The files on the link (http://www.turkstat.gov.tr/PreTablo.do?alt_id=1059) only contain year-on-year data up to 1980 and, when going back before then, it only lists the popular names for 1950, 1960 and 1970 (as years, not decades).To Perrine: The 2018 data is up as well.EDIT: Needed to clarify the last bit in the main paragraph.My PNL: http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/149249

I've updated the Turkish lists to 2018 at least. Mixing decades and years gets a little messy when graphing the results so I tend to avoid this. The exception is the US, where I've created a separate "series" for the names by decade. This causes a number of headaches so I think it's wiser to pass on doing it for Turkey too.
