 They are used in journalism, newscasts and public announcements however.

 

Here is an example from a wall near the Spice Bazaar:  "İSTANBUL TİCARET ODASI TARAFINDAN GERÇEKLEŞTİRİLMEDTEDİR"  and guess what)   d/tir occurs twice in the same word!

 

 

 

 

 Typo (either yours or theirs!!)

 

GERÇEKLEŞTİRİLMEDTEDİR = GERÇEKLEŞTİRİLMEKTEDİR

 

It is being realised/done/made

 

This form -mektedir is normally only used in official business language
