🇹🇷 **You tried to break our Turkish NER model.**
And that's exactly what we wanted.
After sharing Werea-TR-NER, we asked the Hugging Face community to challenge our ~110M parameter model with difficult Turkish sentences.
Some worked.
Some exposed weaknesses.
And that's more valuable than pretending a benchmark score tells the whole story.
Our published WikiANN-tr result:
**91.7% Entity F1**
👤 PERSON → 94.2%
📍 LOCATION → 91.4%
🏢 ORGANIZATION → 89.2%
But now we want to go further.
🔥 **ROUND 2**
Send me a Turkish sentence designed specifically to break the model.
Ambiguous names.
Companies that sound like people.
Locations hidden inside organization names.
Turkish suffixes.
Slang.
Anything nasty.
**Try to make it fail.**
I'll collect the hardest examples and use them to build a public adversarial Turkish NER evaluation set.

🇹🇷 **Can a 110M model understand Turkish names, places and organizations this well?**
We tested Werea-TR-NER on the human-labeled WikiANN Turkish test set:
**91.7% Entity F1**
👤 Person → **94.2%**
📍 Location → **91.4%**
🏢 Organization → **89.2%**
Only ~110M parameters.
Try it with a difficult Turkish sentence 👇
`Ahmet Yılmaz İstanbul'da Werea şirketinde çalışıyor.`
→ Ahmet Yılmaz — PERSON
→ İstanbul — LOCATION
→ Werea — ORGANIZATION
But easy examples are boring.
**Give me the hardest Turkish sentence you can think of.**
I'll run the most interesting ones through the model and share the failures too.
