About the archive

Arka Evren is an independent Turkish site about the universe behind films, television series, games, characters and the people who make them.

It is run by one person: sufferwithme — a reader, viewer and gamer with a lasting interest in art, science and philosophy. The Turkish edition is the original; this English edition and fourteen other language editions are translations of it.

What is here

• Selected facts — short, numbered entries on film, series, game, character and person pages.
• Editor’s notes — the editor’s own comment, context or objection under individual facts.
• Analyses — long reads.
• Lists — the editor’s own lists.

How it is made

Facts are compiled from public sources across the web — film, TV and game databases, encyclopedias, interviews, production notes and official statements — then translated, rewritten, sorted by topic and attached to the right page. Facts are a compilation: an individual entry may stay close to its source wording. The site’s original layer is the editor’s notes, analyses and lists, which are the editor’s own work. Sometimes AI may create new lists whose foundation was laid by a human mind and a human hand. Details: editorial policy, sources.

Today: 262 TV series · 613 films · 142 games · 669 people · 67 characters · 64,195 published facts.
